I am a qualified and experienced teacher of Modern Languages and EFL, having taught in England, Scotland and Austria in schools and online via Skype and Zoom for the past 19 years. I am available for one-to-one or group lessons either via Skype or Zoom or face-to-face.
- BA Hons German, Royal Holloway University, London, England - TEFL qualified in 2002 - PGCE Secondary Modern Languages, St Mary's University, London, England - Postgraduate Diploma in Spanish, University of Dundee, Scotland - TESL, UBC, Vancouver, Canada
TEFL/TESL qualified with experience in teaching EFL in Austria and online via Skype and Zoom. I am also a qualified Modern Languages teacher experienced in teaching EFL, German and Spanish.
My teaching style and approach is aimed at the individual’s learning preferences and needs. I am an advocate of covering the four skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing as well as other aspects of language acquisition to help students become all-round confident communicators of the language they are learning. Lessons are tailored to the student’s needs and their final target, this may include the following: - improving grades in exams (including IELTS), - learning holiday / transactional language to enrich a trip, - enhancing customer and business experience, - improving pronunciation and phonetics of pre-learned language, or - simply getting a flavour of something new. Pupils will set the pace of their learning and their requirements will be addressed in the initial lesson and revisited in later lessons.
Available Monday-Friday 7am-5pm Pacific time, with one evening availiability a week. I currently don't have any Saturday openings, but please do contact me and I can add you to a waiting list or we can discuss a different day/time.
I am available to teach online via Skype or Zoom, in a public place (North Vancouver City Library, for example) or a local café. Alternatively, for younger students, at their home with parents. (Extra charge for meeting in-person, depending on distance required to travel.)
