Want to know more about my teaching journey?

After graduating with a degree from UWIC University in Cardiff, I did voluntary work in West Africa and studied French in Lille, a city in North France. My first teaching job was in Guinea, West Africa where I taught English in a school for refugee children from Sierra Leone. I then joined my first language school in Bristol, England where I taught English to adults and children and was a teacher trainer on the Trinity Certificate course.

From Teacher to Manager

After completing the Trinity Diploma Course, I became Director of Studies at another independent language school in Bristol where I managed a team of teachers and gained the Trinity Diploma in ELT Management.

I then became Director of Studies for an international language school where I was responsible for the studies and management of up to 900 students and 40 teachers.

From General to Exam English

During my career as an English language teacher and academic manager, I have taught a variety of courses from general English to business English and exam preparation, including IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC and Cambridge exams.

From Schools to Zoom

I am the founder of British English Online and I’m now an online English teacher. I use my teaching and management experience to teach one-to-one English courses to students all over the world using Zoom.
