Hi, I'm an English teacher and I have moved to France to improve my french (and to go climbing a lot!). I have a PGCE in English and have been working in schools for the past four years teaching and supporting students in their reading and writing of English. I love being able to make a difference in someone's abilities and to see my students gain confidence to use their new skills. Through learning French, I know what it is like to learn a new language so I am patient and encouraging. I can also offer proof-reading of essays and dissertations for students studying English at a higher level.
PGCE English, Sheffield Hallam University, 2010

I have taught English in Sheffield, England in secondary schools. The students were aged between 11 and 18. I have also taught English to children aged between 7 and 9, also in Sheffield.
