Jen
Hello!
My name is Jen and I am passionate about education. I believe that education should be available to everybody and should be interesting, fun and engaging. I have been educating people for 15 years in health-related matters as a nurse, adults and children in agriculture and food production for 2 years and English as a second language for 3 years. I have also been a home educator to my son for 3 years. Although I live in Scotland I have been educating adults and children through various educational platforms. I enjoy teaching children and like to make it fun and interactive but I also enjoy helping adults to learn or improve their English skills for business, travel or further education.
During my spare time, I like to enjoy the outdoors with my son, having formally been an outdoor instructor for kayaking and mountaineering. We like to spend time at the beach exploring caves, watching movies and playing games

Teaching Style
When I meet a student for the first time, I like to get to know them and understand why they want to learn English. This helps me to set goals, plan for future needs and structure classes that are meaningful and challenging but not overwhelming. I also assess how I can best facilitate the learning journey. For young learners I like to use props, realia and a lot of fun. For adults I am happy I use props, realia and humour to facilitate learning.
