Hi learners! I love talking to people!! This is why I am a teacher and for me, having a good, friendly relationship with my learners is as important as explaining how we use prepositions or the future perfect tense. Making connections with students helps to build trust and confidence!

Ik als leerkracht
I have been teaching for 25 years or more...gosh that makes me feel old!! I have a BA in cultural studies and am TEFL qualified. I have worked in Australia, Russia, London and Oxford and have been teaching online for over 2 years. I have taught students from every corner of the world, children and adults. I love the fact that improving English can give a person more freedom to travel, study, work and live in countries where English is spoken.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Before we meet for the first time i will send you a placement test if you wish.
I teach 4 types of lessons:
Speak easy is a conversation based lesson where we can talk about all sorts of topics that interest you. I will find material to suit your level with the purpose of getting you to speak as much as possible. I usually send learners a link to a news item, video, audio, before a lesson and we go through the material working on pronunciation, vocabulary and comprehension. Sometimes, our conversations are spontaneous.
Blended English focuses on a grammar weakness you have.
Business and exam English focuses on Business language and culture and skills for exam success!

I really enjoyed my lesson today, and also, I appreciate Helen's patience so much while I was sharing with her the last news, happening in my family. All her corrections along our conversation were very helpful.
As always, by the way!😁

Your encouragement from our last session still stays with me. Even though I still get nervous (and a little frustrated!) when going into details, I feel so much safer opening up to you. The way you saw something worthwhile in my messy thoughts... I can’t tell you how much that means to me.🧡
