This lesson is for IGCSE/GCSE English Language / Literature students AND non-native ESL students as well. 

Are you interested in English literature? Would you like to practise English using native English texts? Do you dream of reading English classics without translating? 

If you said yes to the questions above, this is the lesson for you. I use poems, short stories and novels to teach reading skills and also use these texts as a conversation topic. I studied literature at university and during my master's degree at Oxford and I'll use my experience to make the conversations as interesting and though-provoking as possible. 

If you're an IGCSE/GCSE student, we will focus on your curriculum and work towards achieving the best grade possible.

English Literature for ESL students / IGCSE students

We can have individual sessions to work on a particular presentation (pronunciation, stress, fluency, proof-reading the slides and speech) or we could work on general business English skills using the 'Intelligent Business' textbook or native material from news and media. 

Please let me know if you work in a specific industry (oil, banking, accounting, law, science, research and so on) so that I can prepare something that is relevant to you and your needs. 

I have worked in a corporate environment (Audit and Finance) so I am aware of the formality required in emails and speaking.

Business English - All Levels

Are you interested in improving your language to sound like a native speaker?

I use a mixture of exercises, my own materials and native, authentic texts to boost your fluency and introduce you to real-life English, that textbooks do not. This lesson is aimed for students who are pre-intermediate and above.

General English - All levels

I will mark your writing/dissertation and give feedback to improve for next time.

If they are for the Cambridge or IELTS exam, I will suggest ways to improve your score. 

This lesson is NOT CONDUCTED ON SKYPE! You will send me your writing and I will mark it for you and send it back with revisions and feedback.

A preparation course to pass the IELTS/FCE/CAE exam. I have a lot of materials based on the exams that I created while teaching classes in Oxford. Almost all of my students have passed and I would love to help you pass too!
