I have worked for Oxford International for 18 years and done a variety of roles from Director of Studies, Course Director for the Trinity Cert TESOL, Tutor on the Trinity Diploma and ELLT examiner. I have enjoyed being in a growing company and appreciate having new opportunities because of this culture. In 2020 I helped move the Trinity Cert TESOL online. This has been lots of fun and highly successful. It makes a lot of sense in our industry nowadays to be logging in and training people all over the world including Indonesia, Burundi, Pakistan, Macau, Iran to name but a few.

Teacher Training course Training

I started teacher training in 2014 running the Unknown Language component and supporting all the trainees with the practical teaching on the Trinity CertTESOL. Later I contributed to delivering the input sessions with my main interest always being in Teaching Young Learners, incorporating phonology into lessons, and working with emergent language. Currently, I support the Trinity DipTESOL candidates daily, and provide guidance on the Unit 4 Teaching Practice assessment.

I have been working in TEFL since 2012. In this time, I have worked consistently as an English teacher, but also have gained experience in management, speaking assessment, materials development, and teacher training. I currently work as a teacher trainer and a pre-sessional English tutor, and I am especially interested in phonology and teaching adult and teen learners.

I have been involved in the TESOL industry for nearly 20 years. I trained in Vancouver, Canada and spent a decade teaching English and teacher training in the Czech Republic before joining Oxford International in 2014. I am actively involved in both, the CertTESOL and DipTESOL programmes, especially in the teaching practice components. My professional interests lie in mediation skills across languages, gender in education, and the debate surrounding native-speakerism.
