With my full attention on you for 45 or 90min, it's the best way to tackle areas where you feel most vulnerable.
​

To assess where you need help the most, we would have 15min Zoom chat before the first session so I have time to properly prepare.

CVs and Interviews
When applying for a job in the UK or the US, it's important to have a CV which will not only be written in excellent English but will also fit the criteria expected.
​
I have helped numerous job seekers with their CV/resumes.
​
The process is the following:
- email your resume in word or page format
- Free Zoom meeting to agree on the number of hours needed to achieve results
- editing
- Final Zoom meeting to read over new document.
​
Starts at £35/hour. Email for more information.

Hello, I'm Marie
English didn't come easily to me.
At school and university, I didn’t like it. I studied International Law but didn't bother with the most spoken language in the world. Youth. One day, I realised I needed to get better at it. Learning as an adult was not easy, but I was lucky and my instructors were wonderful, following Benjamin Franklin advises on teaching, as I do now.
It’s been my preferred language to communicate for over 15 years.
I lived in California for 10 years and I've been in the UK for a decade. When I daydream about moving, my first criteria is always about the language: is it an English speaking country, and if not, is English broadly spoken like in Sweden and other Nordic countries.
During the first lockdown, I tutored a few children, and last September I enrolled to get a English as Second Language teaching certificate. I graduated in December and I am now CELTA (Cambridge University) certified.
My teaching style is relaxed and encouraging. Learning is a journey.
I hope to meet you soon, don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!
Review from Ambre & her parents
Thomas: Ambre a suivi un an de cours avec Marie, elle a été ravie tout au long de cette année et n’a jamais voulu rater un cours ! Elle a progressé tout en s’amusant. On a déjà réservé notre créneau pour l’an prochain.

Ambre: Genial!
