I started classes with Abbie in 2020 because I wanted to improve my English level, both spoken and written. She immediately understood what I needed and every minute we spend together is a real enrichment, and the time flies when we are together!

Hello!
I'm Abbie...
I work with students all over the world, from Japan to Germany, who have an English level of B1 or above, but they struggle to believe in their level and ability. I’ve worked hard to create spaces where you feel valued and feel able to make mistakes and learn without any judgement. I pride myself on creating a relaxed atmosphere so that you feel comfortable and confident in expressing your views.
There's a lot of English teachers out there, but I want to work with "my people". The people who tend to lack confidence and prefer authentic, supportive environments - I use this to motivate through inspiration, connection and enjoyment, igniting a passion for learning the English language without stress or fear.
Attending these classes has been a transformative experience. Abbie is very patient and listens to your needs, customizing the content to fit you perfectly. It’s incredibly helpful not only for learning useful expressions but also for practicing assertive and precise communication. Highly recommended!
