About Lorna

Hello! I am a dedicated English educator committed to helping you find your voice in the English-speaking world. My approach is built on the belief that language is more than just a set of rules—it is a bridge to new opportunities, cultures, and connections. When you step into my classroom, you are entering a space where professionalism meets personalized support.

To ensure consistent progress without fatigue, my standard lessons are 60 minutes long. This allows us enough time for a conversational warm-up, a focused deep-dive into new material, and a practical application phase where you put your new skills to the test.

My background is rooted in academic excellence and practical experience , and I have spent a large number of years helping students achieve their linguistic goals. My track record includes successfully preparing students for international exams, career advancements, and relocation abroad. I maintain a high standard of preparation for every lesson, ensuring that your time is respected and your goals are prioritized.

About the lesson

My Teaching Methodology
I use a Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach combined with Scaffolding. This means we focus on real-world usage rather than just memorizing rules. [1, 2]

* Active Engagement: I use the "70/30 Rule"—you speak 70% of the time, and I guide for 30%.
* Contextual Learning: We learn grammar through stories, news, or your interests so it actually sticks.
* The "I Do, We Do, You Do" Method: I demonstrate a concept, we practice together, and then you apply it independently. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

Lesson Structure & Length

* Standard Session: 60 minutes (ideal for deep focus).
* Quick Hit: 30 minutes (best for intensive conversation practice).
* The Flow: Each lesson starts with a 5-minute "warm-up" chat, followed by a core concept, interactive practice, and a final "wrap-up" to review what we mastered.

Qualifications & Experience
(Insert your specific details here! For example:)

* Certified: TEFL/CELTA certified with a focus on adult education.
* Experienced: 15+ years of experience in both classroom settings and one-on-one digital tutoring.
* Specialized: Proven track record in helping students pass IELTS/TOEFL exams
Who the Lessons Are For

* Level: From Absolute Beginners (A1) to Advanced (C1) learners looking to polish their fluency.
* Age: Primarily teens and adults who want to improve their academic standing or professional communication.
* Goals: Whether it’s prep for an interview, moving abroad, or just building confidence, I tailor the content to your "Why."
