Self-education is an essential, life-long skill. I help students to develop and build learning habits that they can use for the rest of their lives.

I offer friendly support and listen carefully in order to identify individual learning styles and areas that can be strengthened.

My interests include: reading, writing, literature, history, cultural studies, research, and thesis development. I am passionate about learning at all levels from primary through tertiary for all children and adults.

I am an excellent communicator in both the written and spoken word. I have experience in teaching and talking with people whose first language is not English: people from Japan, China, Taiwan, France, Germany, Spain, India, Thailand, Peru, Argentina, Chile, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Israel, Egypt - from all over the world!

My teaching hours are: Monday to Friday - morning, afternoon, and evening. Currently weekends are not available
Online teaching via Zoom (preferably).
