About Me
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I am originally from Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, where I lived until I started university in 1997 and returned to work in the golf industry. I moved to France in 2008 for the same reason as many of my contemporaries: I fell in love with a French woman!Before coming to France, I had never considered becoming an English teacher. Today, after 15 years of work, I couldn't imagine doing anything else. Being able to share my knowledge and help other people learn an important skill and/or pass an exam that will make a huge difference to their future is a truly rewarding experience. I feel privileged to do the work that I do and I really hope to have the opportunity to help you achieve your goals. If you choose to work with me, we will use a variety of materials during your training, but you, the learner, are the most important resource: everything we work on will be selected with your goals in mind.
Although I mostly work with intermediate level (B1) students who need English for their work, I have considerable experience with beginners and advanced levels. I also work a lot with students, especially engineering students, who need the TOEIC to validate their diplomas. Retirees, who are looking to improve their English for travel, are another group I continue to work with today, via the Inter-Ages University of Caen.
In short, I am comfortable with all profiles and levels of learners, and this is one of the reasons why I have entered into successful partnerships as a subcontractor with several different training companies in the whole of France. It's this variety - no two learners are the same - that allows me to stay as motivated and involved in my work as when I started in 2008.
Outside of work, I enjoy golfing, gardening and spending time with my three young children. I play the guitar and the piano, although I'm not particularly good at it, and on the rare occasions when I have the time, I like to read and write mystery novels.

You'll get to speak in a relaxed and friendly environment, practicing the language naturally and effectively 🌟 🌟 I will provide personalized feedback 📝, helping you correct mistakes in real-time, improve your pronunciation, and expand your vocabulary.

Currently pursuing a PhD in Applied Linguistics with a focus on Sociolinguistics and Pragmatics, I understand the challenges of language learning. After three years of studying Korean 🇰🇷, I traveled to Korea and realized I couldn't speak it well. Confidence came through conversation classes with a native teacher, discussing different topics each week. I'm passionate about teaching Spanish and now offer a new class for those wanting to improve their conversation skills, along with my grammar/conversation classes to enhance your understanding of Spanish structures.
Don't miss this opportunity to take your Spanish to the next level! 🚀
* If it’s your first time learning Spanish, you might want to start with my regular classes where we’ll cover both grammar and conversation. Just keep in mind that this particular class focuses on enhancing your fluency!!

English(Improve Academic/Language skills, Terminology, Proofreading Thesis/Papers ): Beginner/Intermediate/AdvancedEnglish as a language is not only widely spoken but also, has made itself a prerequisite to the international world. Even if it is academic or just a beginner learning it for the first time, I will be helping you learn and master the English language just as I did until I achieved my dream of attending a university in English.
