Subjects taught
  • English as a foreign Language

    I have a 168 hour TEFL certificate, which has taught me all the necessary skills and tricks to help non-native speakers pick up the language of English with as much ease and fluidity as possible. I also have a very neutral accent which makes understanding what I am saying very easy.

  • History

    With a university major in this field, and years of helping my fellow students pass the subject, I am fully equipped to help you learn about the intricacies of the past. History is my absolute favourite subject, and as such I'd love to share the joy it brings me with others.
