Hello, I’m Sophie.

I’m a qualified English language teacher and former senior recruiter with over 10 years’ experience working for leading international recruitment agencies in the UK and Australia.

Having interviewed and assessed hundreds of candidates throughout my recruitment career, I know exactly what employers look for and how effective communication makes all the difference. Today, I combine that insider recruitment knowledge with my teaching expertise to help professionals communicate with total confidence in English—whether you're preparing for interviews, stepping up in the workplace or building fluency for everyday life.

How I Can Help

I specialise in helping professionals who want to speak English naturally, confidently and with real impact.

Whether you’re preparing for your next job interview, starting a new role, aiming for a promotion or simply looking to polish your spoken English, I’ll help you develop practical communication skills you can use immediately.

Together, we can work on:

• Job Interview Preparation: Realistic mock interviews with direct feedback from a former senior recruiter.

• Structuring Your Answers: Learning how to highlight your strengths clearly and concisely without hesitating.

• Business English: Mastering the language needed for successful corporate meetings, presentations and workplace communication.

• Natural Conversational English: Improving your fluency, pronunciation, and casual expressions for networking and daily life.

• Confidence Building: Overcoming the fear of making mistakes so you can speak professionally in any situation.

My Teaching Approach

Every lesson is fully personalised to your career, goals and current language level.

My lessons are:

• Practical & Real-World: Focused entirely on communication scenarios you actually face.

• Structured: Built with clear objectives so you can see your measurable progress.

• Supportive & Relaxed: A welcoming space designed to build your confidence, not stress you out.

• Authentic: Focused on helping you speak naturally, not just memorising grammar rules.

My aim is simple: to help your English language skills match your professional capability when it matters most.

Qualifications & Experience

• Former Senior Recruiter: 10+ years of corporate agency experience in the UK and Australia.

• Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) & TEFL Certified.

• Degree in Sociology: Focused on communication and workplace dynamics.

• Experienced Educator: Years of experience teaching adults online and in UK schools.

A Little About Me

Outside of teaching, I enjoy travelling and keeping active. I bring that same positive, friendly energy into my lessons, creating an encouraging environment where you can practise comfortably without fear of making mistakes.

Learning a language should feel motivating and enjoyable. If you’re looking for more than just a standard English tutor, someone who truly understands both language learning and what global employers expect, I’d love to work with you.
