Now accepting adult students only 现在只接受成人学生
I work with just a few students with whom I build a long-term relationship.
I'm a CELTA-qualified English teacher from the UK with a BA (Hons) degree in English and a Master's in Creative Writing. I used to work as a financial editor in leading stockbrokers in Hong Kong and London. Now I'm a full-time writer and English teacher, helping people with their language skills.
You want to improve your English to succeed at work or live in another country. If you need help with your spoken and written communication skills, I will be happy to help.Minha atuação como professor
Before your first lesson, I'll send you an evaluation test to identify your level and any problem areas. We'll look at your results together and I'll show you how I can help improve your communication skills, functional language, grammar - and your confidence!
I'm friendly and professional, and I look forward to working with you to improve your English skills and help you realise your goals.Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
I often use an interactive online learning platform called Off2class which has over 700 lessons. I'll structure a personalised learning plan to meet your needs and interests. I'll give feedback during the lesson, a copy of the key slides, and a homework task to consolidate your learning.
Lesson topics range from books and theatre to the environment and politics.
I use video lessons from Fluentize, Linguahouse and ESL Brains to help with your listening comprehension, and news articles from Engoo and other sources to stimulate discussions.
PLEASE NOTE: I prefer to use Zoom or Skype for lessons. I'm sorry, I don't use the italki classroom.Meu material de ensino

Experiência profissional
2018 - 2021
English TeacherMost recently, I have taught English to adults from all over the world. This included grammar, reading comprehension, pronunciation, listening, speaking and writing. I worked in a classroom environment and also one to one in study periods, and this has given me recent experience which I can use on italki with you.
2018 - 2019
Specialist online teacherI have delivered more than a hundred online lessons now, using a webcam and a modern interactive learning platform. Online teaching demands different skills from more traditional classroom teaching, engaging students and building rapport remotely. I'm pleased to be able to transfer this experience to you here on italki.
1988 - 1990
TEFL TeacherI worked in a private international school teaching young learners from throughout South East Asia. This gave me a good understanding of the particular problems that students from different cultures encounter when learning English.
1990 - 2018
Editor and proofreaderI have worked for many years as an editor and proofreader, both of financial research for blue chip companies and of fiction. I am also a writer and blogger. I can help you here on italki with your writing and editing skills, taking your use of English to a higher level.
