I am a native speaker of English and I also have a level 5 Diploma in teaching English as a foreign language.
I have further certificates in 'Teaching English Online and One-to-One' and 'Teaching Business English'

I have personally taken an IELTS test, as part of an immigration application, and would be happy to help in preparations for these exams.

I am experienced in providing one-to-one lessons online, adapting classes to suit the level and needs of each individual student. I am friendly and patient and really listen to the needs of my students whilst ensuring that lessons challenge them to do their very best.

I provide a safe and friendly space, in which students are encouraged to learn at their own pace, whilst also having fun!
