About Siobhan
I am a qualified and experienced ESL tutor, with experience in teaching adults online, in both 1:1 and group settings. Before becoming a teacher, I had a varied career that has given me a unique perspective. I worked for 10 years as a Speech & Language Therapist and 8 years in business. In these roles, I developed the knowledge and skills I now use to create professional and engaging English lessons. In particular, I specialise in: - Pronunciation: I use my in-depth knowledge of the English sound system and other aspects of pronunciation to deliver highly effective and interesting pronunciation lessons. - English for Professional purposes, e.g. English for Work and Business, English for sports professionals, English for the Charity sector. - Conversational English: we can talk about whatever interests you, with the aim of helping you feel more comfortable in conversation. - Everyday/functional English: perfect for anyone living or planning to live in the UK. This can include topics like visiting the doctor, talking to the emergency services, and understanding UK government and law. I believe that the most important part of learning a language is building your comfort and confidence in interaction and speaking, even if you are still making mistakes! Having learnt languages myself and taught many nationalities, I know how nerve-racking it can be to speak to someone in a different language, whether that be to simply say ‘hello’ to a single person, to deliver a presentation to a room full of people or anything in between. So, my focus in lessons is always to get you speaking more, and the vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation will follow. Thanks for reading this and I look forward to meeting you soon!

My main aim is to provide a relaxing environment in lessons. I like to learn about my students' lives, cultures and languages, but this is not just a one-way street. From the start, you will also get to know me. In this way, we can connect, our lessons will be more meaningful and your confidence in English conversation will grow. My goal is to create lessons that get you excited about speaking English! Therefore, my lessons are tailored to each student's needs and interests, and I use a variety of resources, including structured English language books, articles, TV news reports and other listening activities. I can also provide relevant homework after your lessons. In my pronunciation lessons, my goal is simple: to help you communicate clearly and confidently. I don't believe in 'accent reduction' because your accent is very much a part of who you are. Instead, our goal will always be good communication and you will ask yourself two questions: Do people understand me easily enough? Do I understand native English speakers well? As a native RP speaker from London, I'll help you master the sounds and rhythms of English, so you can interact well and feel comfortable in any conversation.

Siobhan was my first English teacher here. I really appreciate how quickly she understood each student’s strengths and weaknesses, and how she used simple and clear methods to correct our mistakes. I was able to learn comfortably and my confidence grew, allowing me to communicate with others in English without fear.
To this day, Siobhan is still the teacher I admire and feel most grateful for.I'm a HongKonger who moved to the UK around 9 months. When I arrived, I'm scared to speak English because many things are strangeness, so I took the ESOL lesson and meet my teacher Siobhan on April. I am appreciated to have Siobhan as my teacher because she gives me confidence, encouragement and thinking space to learn English through daily life, news, articles and stories. We also have many interesting group discussion and interaction so every English lessons are anticipated. Now, I am not afraid English and dare to speak to others, this is thanks to Siobhan's thoughtful guidance. If Siobhan becomes a member of superprof, I am willing to take a lesson again and recommend her to other student.
I have already completed 3 courses which are taught by Siobhan. She is very nice, patient, professional and organised. She provides the useful ways/methods for us to learn English effectively and greatly encourages us to speak English. My English is improved dramatically and effectively. I appreciate her teaching with heartfelt thanks and highly recommend to join her class.
My name is Connie Yip. It’s my pleasure to meet Siobhan from my first English lesson in Train to TEFL. Within these two years, I joined three classes with her and learnt a lot. She is an outstanding, professional, well-prepared and well-organized teacher, especially in the phonology aspect. You will definitely enjoy her class with many interactions. All my classmates loved her very much. I highly recommend her as an English tutor and you will see your English skills with great improvements.
My name is Suzannah Redmond, and I am the founder of Train to TEFL, an organisation specialising in teaching English and delivering the Level 5 Trinity CertTESOL qualification. I have had the pleasure of working with Siobhan for a number of years in her role as a freelance tutor. She is an outstanding teacher, both online and in person, with exceptional language awareness. One of her many strengths is her expertise in phonology and helping learners understand the British accent. She has developed highly effective courses in this area and is extremely popular with students thanks to her targeted, focused approach. Siobhan consistently achieves excellent results, helping learners build their listening skills, pronunciation, and confidence. She is a highly skilled, professional tutor who quickly identifies learners’ development needs and creates clear, effective plans to help them achieve their goals.
I could not recommend her highly enough. If you work with Siobhan, you will see real progress.I highly recommend my online English teacher. She is patient, professional, and always well-prepared. Her clear explanations and engaging lessons make learning enjoyable and effective. Since studying with her, my English and confidence have greatly improved.
