I am a freelance, native speaker and fully qualified teacher of English who has lived in Barcelona since January, 2019. I teach to adults of all ages, in-company, at home and in cafes. I am a professional, fun and engaging teacher.
Because I have a writing and theatre background I specialize in speech and pronunciation, grammar and writing.
I can offer the contact details of some students if you want to hear more about me. They are happy to talk about my teaching. Below is a list of what some of my students say about me....
"Lovely teacher!"
"Very good teacher. Extensive content and very good use of your teaching method!"

I came to Barcelona on January 4th, 2019 for a holiday and decided to live here. I have worked in many different kinds of jobs throughout the big continent of Australia: filmmaker, theatre technician, fisherman, cook, farmhand and assisting newly arrived refugees. I am a musician and I love jazz, poetry readings, movies, swimming, tennis, bike riding and learning Espanol.
I adapt to your needs and I am a creative and energetic teacher who is fun to be around. I am very focused on gifting you the best lesson I can so that your English progresses. I have also trained as an actor so pronunciation is a strong focus of mine. Our lessons will be fun, relaxed but full of learning!
