IB English Language and Literature Specialist | Expert in Text Analysis, Academic Writing, and Exam Preparation

I have been a dedicated IB English Language & Literature educator since 2014, and my expertise extends to serving as an IB External Examiner for IB English A Literature since July 2016. As of May 2023, I have advanced to the role of Team Leader, or Senior Examiner, overseeing the external assessment of Language and Literature components and guiding a team of ten junior examiners.

My passion for Education and Literature has been the cornerstone of my career for nearly a decade. My professional journey spans a diverse range of educational settings, including public and international private schools, as well as independent language institutions.

In addition to my extensive teaching experience, I hold an IB Diploma, a BA in English and Education, an MA in Education, and a Swiss-verified teaching certificate. These credentials underscore my commitment to excellence in education and my deep engagement with the field of literature.

Great teacher!

Don't think twice, just book ! Fay is an unbelievable tutor who has been helping my son with Eng LAL Internal Oral journey. Whilst we initially expected a supplement to his current teacher, to our surprise Fay has added a totally new dimension and dynamic which is evident in my son's approach and confidence towards the task. We look forward to also leveraging her experience for the pending exams.
Fay gave an excellent explanation of the English Language and Literature curriculum for IB exams. She put me at ease and I am happy to be learning with her and confident her teaching skills will be very beneficial to me.
Great teacher. Appreciated her insightful lesson.

I teach English classes up to C1 level. I have a degree in English Studies and I have lived, studied and worked in cities such as London and Lancaster in the United Kingdom. With my English classes I can help you achieve your goals in this language, and much more. For me, the most important thing is the needs of my students and this is something I have always kept in mind. Fortunately, thanks to my degree I had the opportunity to work as a Spanish teacher in London for a year, and it was a very pleasant experience.

I teach English through full immersion. From day one, you will be communicating in English! Using all your abilities, you will learn by speaking and listening, watching videos and listening to music, using all possible senses! Come and learn in an interactive and fun way! My classes are tailored to be interesting and relevant to each student. For adults in particular, I teach based on what interests the student, studying things like pieces of music, episodes of series, stories and other short texts, news in English – the possibilities are endless! From this, we will learn vocabulary and grammar in a natural way, without the rigid and boring study of rules. For children, I also teach exclusively in English! From the very basic level, I make good use of PowerPoint, photos and videos to introduce basic words and grammar little by little, helping them learn as they learned their first language – without translation. This way of teaching brings excellent and fast results.
