About me

No pressure, no judgement — just twenty-five minutes of real conversation.

I specialise in students who understand a lot of English but freeze when they have to speak. We start with topics you already care about, use short preparation prompts, and build up slowly. I keep notes on the vocabulary you reached for but could not find, and we recycle those words the following week until they feel automatic.

Sophie made me feel comfortable from the first minute. I actually look forward to speaking now.
