Hello!
I'm from Australia but currently live in the United Kingdom. I am qualified to teach English as a foreign language to adults.
I enjoy cooking, travelling, exploring different cultures, and learning languages. I'm happy to discuss my hobbies and interests with my students. Some other interests include history, philosophy, books, music, psychology, health and fitness, skincare, fashion, art, technology, sociology, and anthropology.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have extensive professional teaching experience. In 2020, I completed the CELTA certificate, though I began my ESL career in 2009 after completing a TESOL certificate and starting to teach English both online and in-person. I have taught at language schools in the UK and Australia. I also hold a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in philosophy.
I am comfortable teaching students at all levels. I am patient with beginners and can effectively challenge advanced speakers to continue learning and improving. I love helping students achieve their language goals, whatever they may be. Additionally, I have experience in proofreading and copy-editing for both academic and business purposes.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My teaching style is open, friendly and patient. I really encourage my students to speak.
In my 'Natural Conversation Speaking' classes, we can talk about whatever you want or I can offer suggestions to get the conversation started and keep it flowing. I really encourage you to speak and to have a natural as possible conversation, regardless of your level.
I also offer various types of structured, professional lessons and plans. Please see their descriptions for further information. Professional lessons can include homework, if you want it.
I always try to offer feedback, corrections, and ways to improve.
*Please note I don't usually teach children, however I sometimes make exceptions*

I was thrilled with the first session with Kathy, so I booked 10 other lessons with her. I definitely recommend her for conversational lessons.

Dear Kathy
Your lessons are always fun, I really enjoy the conversations we have and I can literally feel my English improving thanks to these sessions. You never run out of engaging topics and advanced vocabulary. You make me talk and that's exactly what I need to practice my speaking skills. Thanks.

Kathy is a fantastic teacher to work with. She is always well-prepared for a lesson and never lets me leave the classroom empty-handed without any takeaways. In addition, she gives direct feedback on my mistakes and provides me with better words or phrases to replace them. Finally, her teaching materials are neat, which facilitates my learning. I recommend her to anyone who genuinely wants to learn English well. Thank you, Kathy!
