(1 review)

Personal Description:

Hello, I'm Leanne and I'm an English language teacher with over 20 years experience. I aim to instil in every student the confidence, knowledge and mindset to succeed and surpass all expectations. I'm passionate about my students achieving outstanding results and have a proven track record of 100% pass rates in ESOL.

English is my passion - I love everything about the language and love to share my passion with my students. My students come from all over the world - Europe, China, Japan, Pakistan, Africa, Saudi Arabia and the UK. Although I teach all aspects of the English language, I am a specialist in ESOL (English to Speakers of Other Languages) and EFL (English as a Foreign Language).

My other hobbies are yoga, gardening, reading and cooking. I also have 2 children, so they keep me busy too!

I'm extremely patient, professional, friendly, honest and committed to ensuring all of my students succeed and make excellent progress. I go beyond what is expected to ensure my students exceed all expectations.

I am a native English speaker with a clear accent.

Teaching Experience:

For the last 20 years I have worked as a permanent English lecturer at a large further education college in Birmingham City Centre.

My main role has been to teach English to speakers of other languages and to improve these students' skills in speaking, listening, reading and writing, from Pre-Entry to Level 2 and IELTS.

I am very experienced with lower level English language learners where English is a second or third additional language.

Teaching Approach:

I aim to make learning English an enjoyable and rewarding experience through a variety of different teaching and learning styles.

I understand that every learner is completely unique. We will work together to create a bespoke learning plan at the start of the learning journey and monitor progress on a weekly basis to ensure that all objectives are met or exceeded.

I tutor in English from ages 4-adult.

I provide exam preparation for English SATs, 11+, ESOL, Life in the UK, IELTS and GCSE English.

I can tutor in your home or online via Teams.

I also offer a proof-reading service for school, college or university essays and assignments.
