Experience: I`ve been tutoring and teaching for over 10 years, to students from preschool age to adults, including Linguistics to degree level (syntax, morphology, phonology, sociolinguistics), as well as Maths, English as a Foreign Language, English Literature, Swahili, German, Drama, Dance, and 11+ preparation.

I have taught English as a Foreign Language at a university in Germany, and English, Maths and German in nursery, primary and secondary classrooms in Tanzania, Namibia, and the UK.

I`m fluent in Swahili, having lived in East Africa for 4+ years and studied the language as a linguist, married to a native speaker, and have classroom and individual teaching experience both online and face to face.

I have specialist experience teaching adults for the UKVI IELTS exams and delivering basic accounting and administrative skills for small businesses and NGOs in the UK and overseas.

I have a first class BA in German and Linguistics from Queen Mary, University of London, where I was awarded six additional prizes for outstanding academic achievement and two scholarships for additional courses. I achieved `Pass A`, the highest grade, in my CELTA English language teaching qualification (level 5, with practical assessment).

I left school with three A Levels (AAB) in Biology, German and Maths, and two AS Levels (AC) in Further Maths and Psychology. At GCSE, I attained 6 A*s and 3 As, including English Language, English Literature, Drama, Maths and the three Sciences. I have maintained my knowledge in these subjects through training, independent research and regular teaching and can confidently teach them to KS3 level.
