Moira G - Tutor in Parkwood

I have completed my BA in Linguistics and Communication, and also have a TESOL certificate to teach English to students of other languages. I am a native English speaker and have a passion for helping people improve their English communication skills. I am patient and supportive, and enjoy seeing my students gain confidence as their English improves. I understand the trials and tribulations of distance learning, and how difficult it is to find time to study when you are working and have family commitments. The key to success is preparation and planning, and I can help in this regard.

Subjects taught
  • Grammar

    English grammar is one of most tricky things to learn, and has many different rules which can be confusing! I have studied Grammar and have a good understanding of the structure of the English language, and am able to help students understand the idiosyncrasies of the English language.

I have many years working experience of writing documents of all kinds from reports to blogs, and can help students improve their English skills.
