English Tuition for Speakers of Other Languages
MOST OF ALL, I WANT YOU TO ENJOY YOUR LESSONS WITH ME WHILE YOU ARE LEARNING SUCCESSFULLY AT THE SAME TIME
IELTS
I have taught IELTS for several years, including classes at universities, workplaces and one-to-one tutoring.
I am happy to be flexible in my approach and will adapt to the student’s preferences for courses and materials.
ESOL
I have taught ESOL for several years, including classes at colleges, job-centres and one-to-one tutoring.
I am happy to be flexible in my approach and will adapt to the student’s preferences for courses and materials.
BUSINESS ENGLISH
I think my earlier work as a manager and accountant in the real world’ of business helps me to understand the contents and requirements better than most teachers.
I have mainly taught for the Cambridge-based business exams but have helped with others too.
OTHER COURSES / EXAMS / GENERAL LIFE
Maybe you need to do a course and/or pass an exam that relates to your work or your professional qualifications.
Perhaps you need help with a UK citizenship test, or some other kind of test in real life. I’ll see if I can help.
Or possibly you just want to build your confidence when doing ordinary things like phone calls or shopping.
PROOF READING
Two main areas where I have often helped non-native speakers are:
- Academic content for university/college such as essays and presentations
- Work-related documents like CVs (résumés), covering letters and application forms.
Anything else? We can talk about it!
GCSE ENGLISH
In recent pandemic-affected months I have started teaching GCSE English due to demand from parents in the special circumstances.
As a non-native speaker, maybe you are taking the GCSE exam soon (or you are the parent of a young person who is doing so).
As an EFL tutor teaching GCSEs, I may be ideal for you!
ACADEMIC ENGLISH / EAP
Overseas students in particular often struggle to find the correct language forms to use in their essays, presentations and so on.
Whether you are taking specific EAP exams or just determined to improve this aspect of your English, let’s talk about it.
