Class Experience

In this nonsense poetry rhyming class students will learn how to compose different poem formats, from Limericks, Free Verse, and Rhyming poems.

Children love nothing better than nonsense, guessing, describing and being creative. They adore the ability and freedom to create their own unique poem, inspired by something or someone precious to them.

I will encourage your learner to structure and organise riddles, in different formats so that they can build in their confidence in creating unique, authentic collection of poems.

So join in with Ms EnglishCOOL
She loved to go to school
She devoured books
Didn't like crooks
Loved playing with rhyme
Had a great time

In the right tense
Otherwise the words are silly

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.
