    Dynamic, engaging, professional English professor from Great Britain.

    Dynamic, engaging, professional English teacher from Great Britain.

    I have 15 years experience working in primary and higher education and am currently working as an English and performance professor at one of the most recognised schools in Mexico.

    Whatever the level of the student, I have an outstanding record of results which I am proud of.

    English does not have to be boring or monotonous, it should be engaging and fun! Each child has individual learning styles which we will discover together as well as building knowledge and confidence for school life and exams.

    I look forward to meeting you.

    About Me

    Energetic, driven and passionate about teaching, I believe I am a dynamic teacher with a detailed understanding of pastoral care and wellbeing as well as both theoretical and practical aspects of English, and Theatre studies.

    Furthering and developing student progress, academic achievement and promoting excellence are the three areas that support my desire to teach. I have demonstrated excellent practice within the classroom, through understanding the needs of my learners and how to differentiate my practice to achieve the best result.

    In my time as a teacher and pastoral leader I have learnt a great deal in terms of assessment, progression and promoting motivation in learners, both through practice and daily engagement in the life of the schools I have worked in. I have come across a number of challenges in working with students, including motivation, structuring learning in the right way, providing support and behavioural management. I have been proactive in exploring and putting in place strategies to support these learners and further my understanding of meeting the needs of students with ASN needs and being able to appropriately and sensitively differentiate the learning within the classroom. I have created a number of approaches to maintain interest and enthusiasm for learning and work hard to promote the value of learning and explore how it can help to empower young learners to gain important life skills and values.

    I believe I am a teacher who demonstrates enthusiasm and works hard to raise the aspirations of my students, through setting challenging and stimulating lessons which reflect the learning objectives of the education bodies I have worked with including Ofsted, SEP and COBIS. Working in school’s that have been accredited “outstanding”

    As an experienced teacher, senior leader and Head of Department, I have developed many tracking documents for student’s progress both academically and behavioral and am confident at articulating where students need to go next to further their progress. I will strive to find answers in how to assist the progress of those who may not be meeting their expected targets and have developed many tools within my personality to help students, and colleagues become the best they can be.

    Education

    Leeds University

    Masters Degree (MA) - English Literature

    BA Honers Degree - English Literature

    The University of Huddersfield

    BA Honers Degree - Theatre Studies

    Experience / Qualifications

    By using both summative and formative assessment I provide tailored learning experiences to ensure that each learner stretches their potential. Through research and trialling I have embedded both written and verbal feedback as essential to my classroom practice. This allows every learner to understand what he or she has achieved as well as recognising their next step on their learning journey. Over the last four years all the subjects I have taught at exam level (IGCSE English, IGCSE Drama, IB Theatre and IB Literature and Performance) have had a 100% pass rate. I am also proud that I managed to see over 90% of students reach an A or A* at IGCSE and 75% of IB students achieve a level 6 or 7.

    Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
    Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!

    Relaxed Chats in English with Ryan the Australian/South African - Improve Your Confidence in English
    The purpose of our chats/classes is to increase your comfort and confidence with speaking English. Learning any language takes dedication and persistence, but I will help make it easier for you. The more you hear English spoken, and the more you try to speak it, the faster you will recognise the sounds, and the more confidence you will gain. It starts with feeling totally comfortable to try, and to make mistakes. And that's where I can help. ABOUT ME My family tree has its roots in England. I grew up in Mandela's beautiful South Africa. I later spent 9 years "Down Under" in Dronning Mary's magnificent Australia. Then marriage brought me to the lovely Kingdom of Denmark :-) I'm not a trained English teacher, however: - I scored 8.5 (Expert) on the IELTS test - I love to teach and explain - I'm super-patient and caring - My accent is easy to understand Let's have some relaxed and interesting chats to improve your English fluency and pronunciation :-) I'll be happy to share stories from living all around the world, and hearing about your life. LGBT friendly. MY APPROACH I know what it's like to learn a new language and I know just how scary it can be to open your mouth to try and speak it. I will provide a safe space, free of criticism or embarrassment, to help you overcome your fears of learning this VITAL world language. The English language can really be your passport to the world :-) The time it takes to learn English is different for different people, but the statistics show that the more you hear the language and the sooner you start speaking it - even if it's slow and difficult at first - the faster you will learn. My job is not to explain complex rules and grammar to you. You can learn those online or in a school. I'm here to get you speaking and listening, so that you train your ears and your mouth in English. And over time, bit by bit, I will also help you to speak more accurately. Luckily for you, because English is spoken so widely, native English speakers are quite used to hearing English spoken incorrectly. So there's really no need to stress too much about your little errors in grammar or pronunciation. Let's just get you speaking! :-)
