Sophie Hanson

I am a CELTA-qualified English language tutor with over four years of experience teaching English as a foreign language to both adults and older children. My lessons are primarily aimed at adults and teenagers who are looking to improve their English skills for various purposes, including IELTS preparation, conversation practice, grammar and vocabulary enhancement, and specialised areas such as business English and English for work.

In addition to teaching, I offer proofreading and copyediting services for English language students, focusing on business and marketing materials, CVs, cover letters and academic essays or dissertations. This dual approach allows me to provide comprehensive support to my students, ensuring they can communicate effectively and professionally in English.

My teaching style is friendly, supportive and encouraging. I am dedicated to creating a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable and motivated to improve their skills. I take pride in planning all my lessons myself, tailoring them to meet the individual needs and goals of each student. This personalised approach has enabled me to build long-lasting relationships with my students and witness their progress and success over time.

Whether you are preparing for an exam, looking to improve your business communication or simply wanting to enhance your English proficiency, I am here to help you achieve your goals with confidence and enthusiasm.

I offer flexible virtual tutoring sessions of 30, 45 or 60 minutes to accommodate your schedule. Additionally, I am happy to mark written documents and provide feedback both in person and over email.
