Private Tutoring in English, Academic Writing and University ApplicationsDo you want to become more proficient and more confident in English? Would you like to realize your full potential through writing the best essays and the best letters of motivation? I believe then that I am the perfect tutor for you!
I studied Linguistics, the science of languages at the University of Cambridge, and as such, I am well-versed in thinking about language in an advanced level and familiar with different language exams (e.g. IELTS). This experience is going to be very advantageous for you when going through the perhaps more confusing aspects of English. Over the years, as Access Officer of a Cambridge society, I helped 60+ people with their university applications, and I learnt what makes a good letter of motivation. I can help you with how to connect your experiences in order to create the perfect applications for jobs and universities alike!
I run my classes depending on your needs - do you feel more comfortable studying in your home or in a cafe? We focus on writing, speaking or both, all dependent on what your aim is and where your abilities are. In any case, I assign homework after every class, to allow you to consolidate your knowledge.
I am also happy to proofread any kind of written piece!
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!

It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows:
a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement.
c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises.
Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy:
- Study your text
- Build text, song lyrics etc
- Calmly polish the style
- Research and develop your lexical fields
- Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others
All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.
During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

Trained in a European Grande Ecole & Ivy League University in the United States, specialized and has been working in Europe and North America for more than 16 years in this field, in reputable international institutions , also intervening in forums and conferences.
- 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.

Engaging Creative Writing Classes (For All Levels)I am a tutor with 7+ years of experience teaching at a variety of levels from primary school to GCSE level. I teach English Language, English Literature, ESOL (English for speakers of other languages), Maths, and Creative Writing.
I have a special passion for creative writing, which I specifically studied in my joint honours degree (BA English with Creative Writing), and specialise in producing stories, written poetry, and spoken word poetry which I have previously performed at events. I have run creative writing workshops for children at previous educational centres and love to make writing enjoyable, engaging and exciting for all of my students at all levels.
I believe the most successful results come from fostering a friendship with my students, and providing constant encouragement and support in their areas of interest. I pride am an attentive listener and I carefully plan my lessons according to the specific needs of my students, which is particularly helpful for my SEN, ESOL, and younger pupils. At the beginning of every lesson I also do short icebreaker activities and challenges with my students, using a points reward system to keep them engaged. Previous students have gone on to become the top of their class and receive recognition at school for both English and Maths.
Lessons start at 1 hour in length, with longer lessons available if required. Lessons are structured according to the needs of the student; this can be working alongside their class syllabus to support them with progress at school, tackling an area or subject they want to excel at, and helping them prepare for national exams such as GCSEs.
I provide feedback after every lesson and detailed progress reports every six months for each student.
I primarily offer online lessons as I have found this works well for me and my students, but in some cases I do teach face-to-face depending on location and availability within London.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have - I look forward to speaking with you soon!

English - Exploring Language and Creativity: A Journey Through Reading, Spelling, and Creative Writing in English ClasspIn my English class, we cover a wide range of activities. We start with reading sessions where we explore different genres and authors. I also emphasizes the importance of spelling, so we often have spelling quizzes to keep us sharp. Creative writing is a big part of our lessons too; we get to write stories, poems, and even scripts, which is really fun and helps us express our ideas in unique ways. The class is a mix of reading, spelling, and creative writing, making it engaging and diverse.
