About Me
I have been a teacher since 1996 and I specialise in Special Education and English.I am missing teaching in a classroom during the pandemic so I looked online to try to find an online learning platform and I was pleased to find Apprentus.

I adapt my learning styles for each individual student and have an extremely high success rate in terms of engagement and examination results.
I have taught in mainstream schools, prisons, pupil referral units, special schools and a Psychiatric hospital in Northampton.
I welcome any ability, age and level. I deliver one to one or group lessons.
I am also proficient in Level 3 British Sign Language and I am happy to teach and sign.
I look forward to meeting you very soon!

- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.
These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

Creative Writing for Advanced Writers! Refine Your Story and Let Your Voice Be Heard!Writing is an individual and vulnerable process. When we creatively write, we are telling stories, and the effectiveness of each sentence affects how readers interpret our stories and us as writers. I know better than anyone how vulnerable it can be to share your writing. I also have an intimate understanding of the technical writing skills required to keep readers engaged and to get published.
In this class, you'll learn how to:
-Structure stories and paragraphs with appropriate beats and pacing.
-Build complex, fully realized characters.
-Write engaging, realistic dialogue in novel or screenwriting format.
-Hook readers to the page using pacing techniques and red herrings.
I can provide story and character consultation and feedback on your current projects.
This is an advanced class. Please do not sign up for this class unless you have experience in creative writing. This may be a good class for a writer who has just finished their first novel and is looking for advice on editing and story consultation. It also may be a good opportunity for writers who have finished novels or scripts and are looking for advice on a new project. I also offer beginner and intermediate creative writing classes
I am a published author and produced screenwriter. Don't miss your chance to take one of my classes. You and your writing skills won't regret it.
