Personal Description:

I am a qualified teacher, with a specialisation in early years primary teaching. I have lived and worked in Italy & France learning both languages whilst living in the country. I am passionate about foreign languages and would love to help other people learn a language. I am married with 2 (adult) step children and a dog and love to spend my freetime outdoors: walking, surfing & beach combing.

Teaching Experience:

On leaving university in 1990 I worked in Italy & France teaching English as a foreign language. I returned to the UK in 1994 to embark on a 10 year career as a business systems trainer in industry; although based in the UK I worked across Europe & the USA training employees to use a new business system called SAP. In 2005 I returned to college to gain Qualified Teacher Status specialising in Early Years Education (3 to 7 years). I teach part-time in a local primary school and have worked with all age groups within the primary sector.
In addition to my systems training work in industry I have also worked as a tutor in an IT Learning Shop supporting adults to gain IT / literacy / numeracy qualifications.

Teaching Approach:

Working one to one with a person enables me to tailor the teaching and learning to meet your specific needs - e.g. holiday language skills / business language / grammar / conversation etc… Wherever possible I like to use practical activities / games to support your learning although I do still use text books or worksheets.
If you have a friend who would like to join you in your language learning, I am happy to deliver sessions to a small group.
