CELTA certified English language teacher, exam prep, all levels, beginners to advanced business English

From 107.16 C$ /h

I have been teaching English for many years and have watched my students progress, pass exams and improve both spoken and written English, and watched them go from one level to the next. My classes are both fun and informative and no two classes are ever the same! I do focus on the individual student and what they want to achieve, whether it be conversational classes or striving to pass an exam, aided with writing and listening. I have prepared students for Trinity and Cambridge exams, as well as Escuela Idiomas. All of my students passed their exams, some with distinctions. I also offer homework support to students. I do put emphasis on pronunciation. I sometimes assign homework, but I find that often the case may be that if the student concentrates on what we achieved in the lesson on that day, and studies that content. I do, however, encourage a little study in order to progress and achieve your personal goal.

I offer a personalized pedagogical accompaniment and aims at transmitting effective and proven working methods. I also seek to empower and empower students, to give them the confidence they need, and to be demanding so that they succeed.

Hello everyone and thank you for visiting my profile. I offer a wide range of support for all age groups from children to adults. My expertise is teaching english, french and geography however I also offer classes in a variety of subjects as listed in the description.

I am very easy going with a calm nature. I try to make my lessons as engaging and personable as possible with your interests as a priority. Having gained several qualifications in teaching I understand how students learn and make sure that each lesson is focussed on improving my student's development. I make my lessons as active and closely related to your passions & interests as possible to keep them as active as possible. I really focus my lessons on my student's needs and tailor each lesson differently so that you get the best possible experience for your money. I like to build relationships with my students to make sure that they feel confident and comfortable enough to make mistakes as well as freely expressing themselves.

As a teacher I often work closely with students in schools who need extra help to get them to the level that they need to be. I have plenty of experience working 1:1 with special needs students which has provided me with the skills to cater to all pupils.

So if you're looking for someone to help you or your child develop their skills feel free to drop me a message and I'll be happy to get back to you.

Ps. I am also fluent in French so feel free to write to me in French.

Thank you!
