Learning languages as always been my passion. I learnt English as a young child teaching myself with textbooks and using my mum`s old records and started to teach my friends at school .Later on, I came to England as a French assistant but decided to stay as I found the methods of teaching here much more creative than in France and trained to become a fully qualified teacher.. After teaching in a local secondary school for five years, I decided to start my own language school and have been providing tuition for 20 years . I was a franchisee for Le Club Francais and el Club espanol for 15 years but recently stopped due to relocation .I have been an examiner for AQA for three years too. For the last few years, I have taught a great number of students of different ages and different abilities..
I use my own schemes of work and enjoy teaching with games and a great variety of resources
I have a good sense of humour and I am quite relaxed but very professional.
I consider myself a bit of an expert on teaching grammar without pain!
I plan every lesson very thoroughly, I take into account my student`s level and interest. I make sure that there is also an element of surprise so the lesson is an enjoyable experience . Due to Covid and relocation, I am now only teaching online and really enjoy it. I really look forward to sharing my passion for languages.
