As a Head of the Languages Department and Primary and Secondary Teacher in a school in Leighton Buzzard for over 10 years, I believe I am the right language tutor for you!
I'm fluent in Spanish, ( my native language) French, and English and have spent many years teaching and studying languages. I completed a bachelor's degree in Spanish and English at Manchester/ALmeria University (2008) and studied Spanish and English Literature in school (GCSE and A-Level) so I know how daunting grammar can sometimes feel and how stressful language/literature exams can be... but also how great it feels when you finally start getting it!
On the language side of things, I can help you with your writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and exam technique. I can help you with conversational skills if you're just looking to go traveling or make Spanish/French friends.
On the literature side of things, a large part of my degree was literature-based, so I would be very happy to help any Literature students if you are struggling with the subject.
If you're in school and really want to get an A/A* (7/8/9), I can make sure you achieve your goal. Whatever your current grade, an A/ A*/7/8/9 is achievable. I have taught these exams for many years so I know how they work and how you can do well in them. We will work closely with the syllabus and go through some secrets of exam technique to make sure you get a top grade.
Alternatively, if you're wanting to learn languages for travel or business purposes (or just for fun!) we can tailor the lessons 100% to suit your needs. I also teach courses to adults from beginners to advanced and I always tailored to each student's need. I also teach English to foreigners to achieve the Cambridge Examinations ( A1 to C1).
I effectively deliver and plan online outstanding lessons and the feedback that I have received from parents, pupils, and adult learners have always been very stimulating. I strongly believe in the student centered-approach as always shown in my lesson plans. I believe that all students are individuals with very specific needs so differentiation has always been at the forefront of my teaching practice. I find it very important to address any students’ needs in order to get the best potential out of every single student. I am successful in establishing high expectations of behavior in the classroom whilst still developing positive relationships with my classes.
I love online teaching as well as face to face. I have been doing online experience for the last 5 years and I have helped most of my students to achieve an excellent language level. I use Google Meets, Google Classroom, or even Skype for online teaching. I generally send and post great, fun, and genuine resources so that the student can access them easily and successfully. There are so many fun online resources that I could provide you to enhance your language skills, especially in Speaking; what a great way to speak the language with a native speaker! You will also gain a broad cultural awareness and your fluency and pronunciation will speed up!
Contact me and ask what it is that you need and I will make sure you will get the best of your language skills!
On the other hand, I am a 200hr yoga certified instructor for the last 2 years and I can give you online 1-1 lessons from beginners to more advanced practitioners. I can also give the online yoga class via zoom to you and your whole family! If you have children, you will be glad to know that I have trained to teach kids yoga and I have been organizing yoga workshops in primary and secondary schools.

I am a teacher of long experience and can offer lessons in the following
1. Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) at all levels, from complete beginner to proficiency
2. Preparing students who are going to take IELTS (International English Language Testing System) for the four papers: Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking
3. Preparing students preparing for Cambridge ESOL examinations
4. Preparing students at all levels of English: Primary and Secondary
5. Preparing students taking GCSE English Language and Literature.
I hold exceptional skills of presentation, organisation, time management, classroom management, making lesson plans, assessing learner progress as they are the pillars of high potential for a teacher/tutor/language trainer. I also have mastered the approach of inductive teaching which is stupendously helpful for language learners to grab the language content with minimal difficulties. The teaching experience of more than four years (of both in Sri Lanka and here in the UK) have helped my teaching career to enhance my potential and uplift my career with more duties, experiences, responsibilities and newer educational working systems. In my scope of teaching experience, I have witnessed dense formalities of equality and diversity where I have taught learners from different social and economic backgrounds when I was a teacher in Sri Lanka. Also, I have managed to effectively and efficiently establish a well-controlled and well –resourced classrooms with mixed-ability groups of learners. My teaching skills also excel in managing a quality classroom equipped with proper resources, good time management, wider audibility, effective and clear instructions and monitoring , facilitating a good classroom setting . In my teaching experience in the UK, I have had the privilege of tutoring learners hailing from different nationalities where cultural diversity was an inevitable factor to infuse in a lesson plan. Also, I have manifested employability as a vital topic to be explored in the delivery of each of my lessons. I have also participated in training programs for the inclusion of the themes like Prevention and Safeguarding, Health and Safety, Employability, Transport, Personal Development and British Values. I have successfully taken measures to thematise these topics in my lessons. Also, I have taken effective time to explore these themes to support the well-being of the learners whilst they are learning the language. My whole teaching career also embeds with quintessential training on classroom management, writing lesson plans, workshops on activity-based teaching and using the appropriate resources. I have strong skills in demonstrating, monitoring, presentation, preparing lesson plans, assessing learner progress, compiling class profiles and writing learner reviews. The academic qualifications that I have ascertained have sculpted the background for my teaching career with the related knowledge about both language and teaching the language. To add, I have also started the CELTA Course in order to gain the specific professional qualification to employ myself as an educator in further education. Finally, the training and experience counts my capacity and the stage for further learning novice and perpetual experiences in teaching.
I am a driven, energetic, and enthusiastic professional, with a strong work ethic and a positive can-do attitude; always willing to help, to learn and to progress. I have worked as a Social Services Interpreter which gave me valuable skills in dealing with all kinds of situations. As an ESL tutor, I aim to provide my students with the best learning experience. My enthusiasm for teaching, patience, and friendliness are essential qualities that help create a supportive and welcoming learning environment. With my CEL TA qualification and 30 years of experience, I can plan and deliver informative and engaging lessons to each student's unique learning style. Seeing my students succeed and grow in their language abilities motivates me to refine my teaching methods and approach.

In the summer of 2018 I received a Master’s degree in Taiwan and Asia Pacific Studies from Tamkang University, and successfully undertook a CELTA course soon afterwards. I completed a 120 hour TEFL course in 2012, and graduated in 2002 with a Bachelor’s degree in History.
Between February and December 2020 I worked as a Learning Support Assistant at the London Nautical School. I assisted teachers with students who were in a number of different academic years, in a range of subjects. Students at this school came from a range of social and cultural backgrounds. I was responsible for helping students with learning difficulties, and those whose first language wasn’t English. I taught them reading, conversation and grammar skills. I also assisted teachers in managing and teaching entire classes of students.
Before this I was a History teacher for a number of Year 7, 8, 9, and 10 classes at St Albans Girls' School. Students at this school come from a range of social and cultural backgrounds. The school works hard to improve attainment in numeracy and literacy and has clear teaching methods in place to achieve this. The head of department produced lesson plans which all other teachers could use, but from the beginning I made changes to these, and added my own material, in order to adapt them to my own style of teaching.
I have extensive experience in teaching English, as a result of being employed as an English Editor at Kasetsart University in Bangkok, Thailand, between 2012 and 2015. My job at this organisation required me to conduct instruction in a wide range of different courses, and to interact with diverse groups of students. I am confident that I can apply the experience I have gained to any given classroom environment.
I have also worked at the Imperial War Museum in London in a voluntary capacity at weekends. This involved helping to make the exhibits easy to appreciate and use for visitors of all nationalities and sharing the expertise that I have built up regarding this period of history. This allowed me to share my passion for history with others.
I am a English teacher who has had several years of experience working with students from nursery up to college level. I also teach weekends and evenings to Esol students who have English as a second language.
