Finding a new teacher is a process. I offer a trial lesson to help you see whether I will be a good fit for you and, if so, how best to structure future lessons.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced student wanting to prepare for English exams or just practice/improve your language skills, I can help. Lessons are individually tailored to meet your needs, to help you rapidly learn and/or improve your language skills. This class is not a conversation class, but focuses on grammar.

One-on-One tutoring: English

If you want to improve your spoken English, this lesson gives you an opportunity to chat about a variety of topics. It is student led, and very informal, in a stress free environment aimed to increase confidence and fluency.

Conversational English

These lessons are aimed at students who need help with academic writing. They can be one-off to help with a specific project, or a series to guide you through a programme of study or writing a dissertation/thesis.

Academic English

This class is designed for students who want to write creatively in English, as well as general essay writing. It focuses on the transition of language from the purely functional to the transformative. I am a writer, as well as a literature graduate, and so can help you write the sort of English that you have dreamed of.

Creative Writing for ESL Students

Preparing for these tests can be stressful. A lot of students try and prepare by themselves, but the lack of feedback can harm your chances. This class gives you all the skills you need to take IELTS or TOEFL. I use practice tests and past papers to hone your skills and build your confidence.

IELTS/TOEFL Prep

Being an artist myself, a lot of students have had lessons with me to help them write about their art, get ready for interviews for art school etc. This class is specifically for people who need English for their artistic career. It can be for interview preparation, writing about their work, or simply helping them feel more confident talking about their work in English.

English for Artists

My specialisation was medieval Welsh non-fiction literature.

After a thorough grounding in classical art education, my masters thesis focused on the abstraction of the figure.

I teach children and adults, from beginner to near fluent levels. The classes are one-on-one and allow for a highly personalised educational experience.

history

I have been teaching online for over 6 years now. I use my experience as an artist and gallery owner to specialize in English for Artists, although I also teach test preparation - IELTS, TOEFL and various other exams as the student requests.
