**** I will be away from 30/05 - 18/06**** I am a committed and professional teacher who will always approach lessons with energy and kindness. I live in a small town in the UK which allows me to enjoy walking in the countryside with my dog, Sam. My love of language comes from my two passions: reading and travelling. For me, travelling means learning new language in order to talk to new people. Living in Japan allowed me to start learning Japanese which I have continued. I also enjoy practising yoga and swimming as these help me to feel calm and relaxed.Ik als leerkracht
I am student centred and love getting to know the aims and interests of my students. I have a varied background and have supported students with diverse aims. I have spent the last eight years with an academic focus teaching English in secondary schools and helping students apply to British universities. Prior to that I supported international students at a British university enrolled on a wide range of courses from undergraduate Nutrition to a PhD in Sculpture. I have devised and run short courses for groups of students visiting the UK with cultural interests as well as helping students to develop language for specific job roles.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons will focus on your aims and interests as this is the fastest way for you to make progress. Lessons will be well organised with a clear focus, but the atmosphere will be friendly and relaxed. There will be no fear of making mistakes as this is an essential part of learning. I will create presentations and resources specifically for you. I love the easy ability to share information online and will use shared docs to enable instant feedback on writing. Homework can be set and feedback given, and if useful to you I can make videos to support your learning out of class. I will also provide you with self-study resources and suggestions for how to continue your progress between lessons.Mijn lesmateriaal

Teaching experience

English Teacher and Materials WritierI teach online and face to face English lessons one to one. My students range from school aged to adults. Some students work towards recognised examinations, while others enjoy exploring literature, history, philosophy or politics through discussion, reading, listening and writing. The variety of one to one teaching is rewarding and enjoyable.
2022 - 2023
Refugee English Language Tutor ManagerI established a volunteer refugee teaching programme. I recruited qualified English language teachers following safer recruitment practices. I assessed the needs of tutees and matched them to tutors. I also undertook tutoring myself. The programme ran for 18 months until it was no longer needed.

Today we read "Tulips" by Sylvia Plath. It's the third poem by Plath that we've read together. I love the poem and find it enjoyable to discuss with Joanne. It's always inspiring, and I feel like my sense for reading poems is progressing. I highly recommend working with Joanne.

Great! We talked about various issues, starting from the podcast by William Dalrymple about the influence of Indian ancient culture, especially the spread of Buddhism to south East Asian countries. Of course we, Japanese owe a lot to it. Fascinating.
