Friendly English tutor
Specialist tutor with 8 years of experience. All school subjects covered with lessons being results driven - no matter what the issue may be I will help each student find the best way they can study.Each lesson is specific and tailored to the students need - no lesson is the same.Each first lesson is a “session zero” where I will get to know the student more, what they like and what they dislike and then produce brand new and unique lesson experiences from then on.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...
