Meet your coach
I am a Cambridge CELTA qualified English teacher from England. I have 29 years of experience in the UK, France, Australia, Japan, New Zealand and Russia - and once on a cruise ship around the world.
I speak French and Spanish. I know how it feels to work in a language that is not your own.
I work with one person at a time. My clients are people who are already successful, and who want to feel that way in English too.
I am a Brighton local and I love showing my city to people who come to work with me.

Why Brighton?
London Gatwick Airport is 30 minutes by direct train, with flights from Paris, Lyon, Madrid and Barcelona.
Brighton is called ‘London by the sea’. It’s small, friendly and easy to walk around. People here are happy to talk to you.
You will hear real English at real speed- in cafés, in shops, on the beach, in the street. Many different accents. Not just the slow, careful voice of a teacher.
London is one hour away by direct train.
Where you stay
You choose your own hotel. Tell me your budget and I will recommend places I know, in the best areas of the city.
After a full day in English, you need your own quiet space.
Historical Seaside Destination
Brighton is on the south coast of England, 85 km from London. It began as a small fishing village. Then a king came here to swim in the sea, built a palace, and the town became famous.
Today it is a city with two universities, a Premier League football team, the famous pier and beach, excellent food, and the South Downs National Park next door.
Visitors from all over the world come to Brighton, the UK's most loved seaside destination.
