Interest topicReadingHistoryArt
I’m a native English speaker who was born and raised in Surrey, near London in England. I have a BA (Hons) Degree in History, and a Human Resources Management qualification. I have a strong business background with over five years’ Human Resources experience within hospitality and leisure.
In my spare time I enjoy walking in the countryside and visiting historic places. I love reading and would feel lost without books in my life. I’m a keen board game player and enjoy watching movies too.
I have five years’ experience of interviewing and working with many people for whom English is a foreign language. I have seen their increased confidence and joy as their English improves.

Me as a Teacher
I believe that students should feel encouraged as they learn, and that the learning space is a safe place to try out new skills and improve their performance. I have over ten years’ experience of training with young people and adults. This has been to impart skills and knowledge, and communication has always been a big part of this.
I am kind, sincere, organised and enthusiastic. I love learning and really want to help you as you learn! During my Human Resources career, I have helped people prepare for interviews, development opportunities, and important meetings. I can also assist you in preparing for these situations. Whatever your reason for learning English, I want to help you succeed.
My lessons & teaching style
In our lessons we’ll use conversations on topics relevant to you. We’ll also use role play to allow you to prepare for a variety of situations, and to get you confident with informal and formal forms of English. We’ll expand your vocabulary and help you with your pronunciation when reading aloud and speaking.
I want you to end each lesson knowing that you’ve learnt something new, or that you have improved in a certain area.
As each learner is different, we’ll use teaching materials that suit your needs. In addition to those mentioned above, this could include discussing a piece of writing, describing a picture such as a piece of art or place, or putting words into phrases and sentences.

I had a very helpful lesson today as usual, with Katrina. We revise it you words I have learnt during last month, related to medical symptoms. Katrina helped me memorizing those words thanks to interesting and relevant exercises.
Thanks a lot to Katrina for her valuable support.

I would say the lesson with Katrina is great. She has been my teacher since early last year and we covered a lot and now we have started on clauses, which is very important for speaking and writing. My journey to fluency is still long but I believe Katrina will bring me close to the target.
