Conversation practice, Business English, Exam Prep (IELTS, TOEFL) with a patient, friendly tutor! Hi! I’m a UK native with a finance background (Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, Bank of America). I also spent 5+ years in China studying Mandarin, so I understand the ups and downs of language learning. I’m TEFL-qualified with certificates in Business English and Exam Preparation. I’ve helped many adult learners improve speaking, pass interviews and tests like IELTS and TOEFL, and build confidence in real-life and professional situations. I’m patient, friendly and supportive, and keep lessons relaxed and enjoyable. I love spicy food, running, cycling and travelling. Adults only. ● Me as a Teacher I correct grammar and pronunciation, and teach natural, native vocabulary, phrases and idioms. Whether it’s conversation, Business English or IELTS/TOEFL prep, I’ve got you covered. If you feel anxious speaking – especially with native speakers – don’t worry. You’ll feel comfortable with me. Check my feedback! Lessons are personalised, practical and confidence-focused, so you can use English effectively in the real world. ● My lessons 1. Conversation (intermediate–advanced) Fluency, natural phrasing, idioms, pronunciation and British accent for those interested. 2. Business English CVs, cover letters, interviews, plus networking, negotiating and presenting. 3. Test prep (e.g. IELTS, TOEFL) Focused support to help you reach your target score. 4. Freeform class Grammar, vocabulary, idioms or anything you need.
