About me

I have many years of experience teaching PET, FCE, CAE and IELTS. This is one of my areas of expertise. I also have real-world business experience and have travelled extensively in Asia and the Middle East.

I now teach online and like to create a calm environment for my students. I enjoy seeing my learners gain in confidence and improve their speaking, listening and writing skills to achieve their goals. I particularly enjoy teaching on a one-to-one basis as this allows me to focus on my students′ specific needs and ensure they make the best possible progress in the shortest time.
