Language tuition
English as a foreign language
Having lived abroad for a year and taught English in classrooms across Spain and Germany, I understand both how a language is built and how daunting it can feel to begin. I want your child to feel able to speak from our very first lesson.
I teach gently and through play, using games, stories and real conversation so that new words and grammar become something your child can picture, hear and genuinely use rather than simply memorise. My hope is that they grow to enjoy the language as their confidence settles in.

- Learning through play, story and conversation
- Speaking confidence from the first lesson
Support for bilingual & EAL learners
Being raised bilingually is a strength as much as it can be a challenge. I've worked closely with EAL pupils, using visual aids and online learning resources to bridge the gaps and make sure everything we cover is easy for them to reach. If your child's first language isn't English and they're finding language barriers difficult at school, please get in touch — we can talk through the tools and approaches that will help, and I'm happy to share a short document outlining some of the ways that have worked well for me before.
