Nia

Hello my name is Nia and I am from Wales in the United Kingdom. I have just come back from travelling in South America and I am currently living in London.
I have extensive tutoring experience in drama and teaching basic Spanish. I work both online for international students and in person for students in the South Wales area.
I trained as an actor at a drama school in London and theatre, literature, music and performance are my passions. I also do some writing and alternative performances in Cardiff.
I am passionate about teaching and helping others develop more opportunities using the English language, I am encouraging, friendly and very supportive.

Tutoring Experience

I graduated my TEFL qualification in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Previous to this, I was a tutoring in LAMDA for children and I worked as a drama teacher for Stagecoach, Stageworks and in special Educational Needs schools across London. I also taught basic Spanish online.
I have a BA Hons in Drama and Theatre Arts, an MA in Acting.
My subject expertise is English and Drama. I utilise a lot of my drama games into my teaching in order to make my lessons fun and memorable. My lessons are interactive and energetic.

I specialise in teaching children and teaching adults with little to experience in speaking English. I also offer voice coaching, diction and pronunciation lessons. I am a working actor and I use a lot of my experience in acting to help with my lessons. I also offer one off interview preparation to help you gain confidence and achieve your goals!

Tutoring Approach

I am extremely approachable, friendly and non judgemental. I tailor my lessons to whatever my students needs. I am also particularly good with students who are neurodiverse and have additional needs. During the first lesson, I will ask you a series of questions to help me get to know you. I will cater for you if you are neurodivergent or if you find traditional learning more challenging. It is all centred around my pupils and their experience. I have a professional methodology to teaching English and my other subjects so that you get the most out of this experience.
