Elinor

I am a fully qualified and experienced Secondary school teacher and I also teach students for whom English is an additional language. I have a first class degree with honours in Linguistics and Phonetics and a Masters with distinction in Linguistics, specialising in phonetics and phonology.

Whether you are looking for help with controlled assessment or an essay, exam preparation or general tuition, I tailor my lessons to the needs of the individual student taking into account their strengths and areas to improve. Call me now to discuss your requirements!

Tuition takes place at my home in Headingley although another mutually convenient venue can be arranged.

Availability: As a full time, self employed private tutor, I am available at any mutually convenient time including daytimes, evenings and weekends.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I am an experienced English teacher having worked in a number of Leeds Secondary schools. I also work with students for whom English is an additional language and am an accent training specialist. I have been working as a private tutor for eight years and for the last five of these it has been my main job.

I am hardworking and enthusiastic and I enjoy creating lessons using a variety of learning styles that are centred on the needs of the learner.

Before qualifying as a Secondary English teacher I taught Linguistics and Phonetics to undergraduate students, worked in a bookshop and worked in a forensic audio phonetics laboratory using my skills in English to solve crimes. I hope to bring a little of my varied experience and enthusiasm for language to our tutoring sessions!
