Why is grammar so important?. Grammar is the main building block of writing ✍. When we know how to use grammar properly, we can begin to express longer, more complex idea's. Writing isn't just producing words on paper, it is about knowing how and why we organise our writing in a particular way. Grammar is much like making a cake. The most interesting cakes are creative, built with lots of layers and flavours. Grammar really is like a cake. To make the best cake we need to know the methods on which to build it. This course will show your learners how to build their writing effectively. As an ongoing course, learners may drop in and drop out as they wish. The course needs no prior knowledge. My classes are fun, engaging and perfect for emerging writers, or writers that lack confidence. Class will have different themes, topics, question and answers, games, example model answers, word hunts, sentence builders and more.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello and thank you for stopping by to find out a little more about me, although I am more interested in you! I am from London and live in Buckinghamshire in a rural countryside setting. I love the peace and tranquillity of nature and the outdoors.
I have always had a passion for English, ever since I was a little girl and a fantastic teacher inspired me to read and imagine that anything was possible. Fast forward many years, that dream of becoming an English teacher turned into reality for that little girl that spent hours reading and imagining different worlds.
I graduated from Birkbeck University in London, having taken a Bachelor of Arts in English Language and Literature. I studied everything from Shakespeare through to early 18th Century American Literature. I literally found my calling, I then went to achieve my PGCE equivalent Cert Ed in Education, where I qualified to teach young people aged 14+. In addition to this, I have been a private tutor for children ages 7+ for nearly a decade.
I love working across all age groups, as my approach to learning is both flexible and creative.
The most rewarding thing about my work, is my ability to connect with young people that do not believe in themselves. Teaching English, whether coaching to pass exams, or simply to improve written work or read for meaning, or to develop a hunger for exploring texts, is seeing ‘the moment’, the young person connects with what they are trying to achieve.
So, when I am not teaching, I love to walk my 2 dogs, cook or binge watch TV on Netflix.
If there is not something I offer, please just ask, and I will happily VA VA VOOM it up for you.
