With me, you’ll build confidence, gain fluency, all with a meaningful connection and lots of fun.  If you’re an introvert and craving an encouraging, supportive space with a teacher who’ll be there for you every step of the way, then welcome!

I have been learning English with Abbie for the past five years and have made enormous progress during this time. I have now achieved a solid C1 level through hard  work, but also through the enormous support and teaching strategy of Abbie. She helped me not only get comfortable with grammar and pronunciation but also become confident in speaking and engaging in difficult situations in English. Abbie is a patient, kind, and truly experienced teacher who over time became more than just a teacher to me. She became a dearest friend and a life coach advising and supporting me by any challenges on my way.

I provide one-to-one and group classes via video call for adults worldwide, with language skills of B1, B1+, B2 and C1.  I love to work with introverts, because as one myself, I know how important it is to learn in a safe, supported space where meaningful connections thrive, and confidence grows.  I work hard to ensure this in my individual and group sessions, so everyone feels encouraged and valued, we get to know each other well, and friendships flourish.

I found Abbie at a special moment in my life, when I was determined to achieve my dream to live in Europe.  She has a particular way of teaching and worked in a very kind and assertive way. I have never learned English as I have with her.

English Teacher Abbie - About Me

I live in Sunderland, in the North East of England.  Of course, I have all the relevant qualifications to teach English to speakers of other languages. As I’m sure you’ll know, that’s not that unusual – there’s many English language tutors out there. 

 

What sets me apart is that I also have over 10,000 hours of teaching experience - in China and the UK, with adults and children, online and in classrooms, individually and with groups.  And I know what really works, especially for my “people” – introverts who tend to lack confidence and prefer authentic, supportive environments.

 

I use my knowledge to motivate through inspiration, connection, and enjoyment, igniting a passion for learning the English language without stress or fear. And being there every step of the way for each one of my students as their confidence grows and they thrive.
