Criteria first
Every task is mapped to the IB or Cambridge mark scheme so students know what examiners reward, and what they ignore.
The specialist
A decade of English teaching that takes both culture and criteria seriously.
I am a result-driven international educator with a proven record of guiding Asian and African students in Uganda and Kenya to top-tier marks — combining cultural empathy with rigorous academic standards.
Face to face, and fully online.
I deliver premium in-person instruction and dynamic online teaching. After more than ten years of specialised work in IB English A: Language and Literature and IGCSE curricula (0500, 0990 and 0475), the practice is ready for ambitious students and families across all Gulf countries, Thailand and Vietnam.
The work is not generic English support. It is paper-by-paper coaching: how a commentary is built, how an oral holds under timing, how narrative and directed writing actually score, and how internal assessments stay secure when the examination environment changes.
The method behind the results.
Three habits sit under every course of tuition.
Cultural fluency
Teaching is tailored to linguistic nuance and family expectation — especially for Asian and African households navigating international curricula.
Exam diagnostics
Weaknesses are isolated early: IO structure, HL Essay argument, EE research voice, Paper 1 method, Paper 2 comparison, IGCSE writer’s effects.
Tell me about the student.
Curriculum, papers, location and time zone are enough to begin.
