My native language is English and I use it to communicate with my job as a Cruise Director on European river ships. I am used to dealing with people on a daily basis through verbal communication. I also do Powerpoint lectures pertaining to sites and things of interest that the people will see or visit.
I studied French and Welsh to A level standard. I then embarked on a Higher national Diploma in business studies and finance at Plymouth Polytechnic.
My general line of work has been predominantly in tourism. I have worked as a courier on a campsite, a Tour Manager on European bus tours including Scandinavia and Russia and presently I work as a Cruise director on European river ships looking after a maximum of 160 guests for periods of up to two weeks. I am a people person, hence I enjoy my job and get a satisfaction of happy and satisfied guests after their trip.
Once I have introduced myself to the student , I would ask what subjects they like and what they would like to talk about. I would prefer to do conversational English pertaining to the needs of the learner.
I have put in the below times. for example Monday,Tuesday,Thursday and Friday: 4pm-6pm and on Monday,Tuesday and Thursday 11am-12pm. these times are flexible and I am willing to adapt if this does not work for the student.
Due to covid 19 restrictions we are limited to the internet via skype, messenger or zoom. Perhaps later face to face conversations would be possible.
