Announcements
I am a trained lawyer and a lover of English grammar and vocabulary. I have many years of experience writing formal documents for the Australian Government and government tribunals, as well as documents for the general public. Whether you want to use formal or informal English, I can help you express what you want to say in a way that sounds natural. Understanding the grammar rules is important if you want to sound natural when writing English. I am trained in teaching English as a second language, and I am good at explaining difficult things in ways that are easy to understand. I also have a large vocabulary which I am happy to share with you!
Hobbies/Travel
I love cooking, especially creating delicious food for my friends and family! I also enjoy going to the theatre, playing tennis, and going for long walks anywhere near the water. My favourite country is Italy, and I would love to live there some day! I am studying Italian, so I understand well the challenges faced by adults who are trying to master a new language.
Message from the instructor
My approach is customer focused. I am here to help guide you on your English journey and give you tools so that you can continue to improve. If you have particular goals in style or grammar, we will concentrate on achieving them. I will provide you with clear explanations of grammar so you will always be able to understand the reason why a correction is made. When your work does not need correcting, I will provide you with alternative sentence constructions, including more complex verb tenses and vocabulary to help you expand your knowledge.

    Thank you for your feedback. Your suggestions were easy to follow and helpful as always! Unfortunately, I can’t take days off to go to Hokkaido this year. Instead, I have recommended that she see a doctor to get effective medication.

    Thank you for your feedback. The correct use of articles with countable and uncountable nouns is one of the hardest parts of learning English, so your suggestion was really helpful!
