KATIE AS A TEACHER
I am passionate about helping people grow and be able to express themselves better. Whilst this applies to communicating in English, it also applies to the relationship we have with ourselves and how we are constantly evolving as individuals. For this reason, our sessions will not just work on your skills in English but aim to encourage and motivate you to become a better version of yourself, too.
As your language coach I will create a tailored learning plan for you and invest time in getting to know you so that I can best help you grow and succeed - when communicating in English and outwardly in other areas of your life too. I do this by applying my interests and studies in personal development and emotional intelligence. My role is to support and motivate you as I accompany you on your journey with English, equipping you with tools and skills to be able to use completely independently.
Think of me as your personal trainer for communicating in English.
I offer conversation based lessons for motivated students of levels CEFR B1 - C2. I plan lessons around authentic material (articles, programmes, websites and podcasts) which we will then use as a base for discussion in our 1:1 time. I don't shy away from teaching pronunciation, it's one of my favourite things to teach and will soon be one of the things you enjoy a lot too!
I can set homework, usually reading, watching or listening to something to later analyse the language and new vocabulary.
Lessons are tailored to each student and their particular needs; from general conversation to university essays to Cambridge exam preparation.
