Think you’re no good at learning English?
Think again…
Do you ever feel like an outsider in group language classes?
Do you wonder if you’ll ever learn in a way that doesn’t stress you out?
Do you find it hard to be your true self in English?
Yes?
Well, you might just have found your safe space.
Let me guess…
You have learnt English to a high level, but still feel that something is missing.
You’re not confident expressing your ideas and thoughts in English and you want to communicate with more ease and flow.
You get overwhelmed by the chaos of online group classes. The breakout rooms, the microphone noise... it's all so distracting. You’re not comfortable sharing and you’re not excited about the content. But you are linguistically curious and in search of something deeper and more authentic.
You’re seeking opportunities to explore English vocabulary, discover how language is really used and delve into meaningful listening and reading activities on topics that matter to you.
You’re looking for someone to calmly help you get unstuck and feel more accepted. You’re looking for a teacher who will encourage you and hold you accountable so you don’t lose your way between lessons.
Hello! I’m Tree (she/her) and I’m here to create a course that you’ll be excited about.
As a language learner, I know what it's like to sit through a group class and feel frustrated and impatient.
More often than not, I’ve found myself wanting to filter out the classroom noise and ask questions that weren’t answered in the book. I needed a teacher who allowed me to experiment with language and could really pinpoint my needs. And who didn’t mind if I moved around the room or jumped around in my thoughts.
Having taught English to adults for many years, I know I'm not the only learner like this. So I decided to become the teacher I wish I’d had...
I help curious, creative, alternative folk and neurodivergent people to be their best selves in English.
I understand how tough it can be to cover up how you’re feeling in order to communicate. I’m here to tell your inner critic that there’s no room for them. I want you to feel accepted and comfortable, but also excited and challenged!
I offer a solution that:
is completely built around your interests and goals - I won’t force you through a topic you don’t care about; this is a curated learning experience
challenges you in exactly the right way with language that will stretch but not overwhelm you
is purely one-to-one, which means there are no unnecessary distractions, and you can have a movement moment or brain break whenever you need to
extends beyond the online classroom, with regular check-in messages, voicenote activities and tasks that you feel motivated to complete
is just for you, so you feel comfortable and safe to be yourself
Finish your next English course feeling better about yourself than when you started
