My Summary
About Me
Hello, I am an experienced Private Tutor who has worked with both children and adults. I have a degree in Linguistics, with specialisation in French, and a PTLLS Levels 3 & 4 qualification. I am a fluent French speaker, with additional knowledge of other languages. I have three daughters of my own. I try to make learning fun, and like to use games, songs and activities in my teaching, tailoring my materials to the specific needs of my students. My personal interests include reading widely, movies, and origami. I play the recorder and the electronic organ, and sing.
My Experience
I taught English abroad in both Canada and South Korea, to children and adults. I also worked as a private tutor to an 8 year old boy with Down's Syndrome, helping him to improve his speaking and writing skills. In Canada I worked in the Quebec Court system as a French-English interpreter, and as a freelance translator. Since having my family in England, I have done lots of volunteer work teaching English to speakers of other languages in settings such as Community Centres, the City of Peterborough Academy, and at home.
