What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue delivering advanced EFL, ESOL, and modern foreign language teaching in schools or higher education, where I can support learners through phonetics, grammar, exam preparation, curriculum design, and engaging classroom practice.

I've delivered academic English and ESL curriculum at Shandong University of Science and Technology, helping university students strengthen advanced vocabulary, phonetics, precise pronunciation, and research writing.

Across London secondary schools including St James High School, I’ve taught modern foreign languages, ESL, complex grammar, vocabulary, and exam preparation. I also create targeted ESOL lessons that build language acquisition and confidence for diverse learners.

My work spans more than three decades across the UK, France, Spain, and China, including university tutoring, business lecturing, private language teaching, and multilingual immersion programmes.

I hold UK Qualified Teacher Status, a PhD in Comparative, Political, and Social History, and advanced TEFL qualifications. I teach in English, Spanish, and French, with a particular focus on phonetics, advanced grammar, curriculum design, and virtual classroom management.
