Laura T. United Kingdom Verified tutor - ID and qualifications checked

About me

I also studied TEFL to assist in fulfilling a life′s dream of working overseas. Since then I have taught children and adults in a variety of settings, both in the UK and abroad.

I arrived with my husband to the Azores in 2014, to start a new life here. We have established a successful tour company, specialising in bespoke adventure holidays. Alongside this, I have taught English to adults in a language school here and online Business English to Japanese students. I currently also teach children online.

I am excited to share with you the joy of learning a new language. I can also empathise with the ups and downs of language learning, as I am studying Portuguese and living and working in another culture.

I offer tailor made, creative and welcoming lessons, full of encouragement and kind corrections. I can help you improve your fluency and confidence; whether you are looking for English for tourism, academic English, formal interview technique, general conversation or English for children.

In my free time, I love spending time with my family, playing in nature and walking my dog Noah. I also enjoy our incredible beaches and landscapes here on São Miguel Island. I can′t wait to meet you online!

I really enjoy my lessons. These are perfect for me and I learn more English vocabulary. I feel like I’m developing a lot from lesson to lesson. I love my teacher, she is very kind and friendly.

Laura is a great teacher, she is always trying to keep the interest using various methods and ways whilst focusing on learning objective. We like the selection of topics, the way Laura manages the lesson and the style that fits well my son`s personality and his pace of learning. I also appreciate Laura`s agility and flexibility in terms of switching or selection of topics or ways of learning as you go through the lessons. Highly recommended!
