Hello!

Hello, My name is Nellie and I am Australian. I have lived in one of our major cities in Victoria, Melbourne, Australia I have been fortunate enough to move to the countryside to a small town in N.S.W. called Dareton (which is five minutes walking distance to one of our four major rivers, named the Murray River). I have lived in England for two years, so I have visited several European countries. I also spent three months in India and Nepal. I am passionate about other cultures and multiculturalsim My main ability in tutoring is to help my students gain confidence in "Daily Life English". I can help you to gain confidence and fluency in your vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, intonation and idioms. So that you can communicate and express your ideas effectively using the English language. I believe that learning a new language should be a fun experience. Whether it is for a job interview, for your work, IELTS or for travel, I can help. I enjoy painting, drawing and movies. I genuinely believe that learning should be a fun and enjoyable experience. I do not tutor on Cambly Kids.

I live in a small town called Dareton in the state of N.S.W. I live with my 17 year old son, my landlord and our cat, who is called Scarlet Rose. I am involved in art groups. I also volunteer, teaching First Nation youth how to paint and draw. I have lived in Melbourne and other regional areas in Australia. I lived in England for two years. I love cats and dogs (they provide so much comfort and joy). I love meditating and laughter. I love words that have a meaning, 'mood' and/or express an emotion.
