I am a PhD-qualified Lecturer in Academic Skills and Applied Linguistics based in Reading and London, with over 15 years of teaching experience across the UK and internationally. I currently teach at university level and specialise in academic writing, research methods, dissertation supervision, and IELTS preparation.

My expertise lies in helping students move from “basic understanding” to high-level academic performance. I support undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral students with:

• Academic essay writing and structure
• Critical thinking and argument development
• Literature reviews and research proposals
• Quantitative and qualitative research methods
• Data analysis (SPSS, R, mixed methods)
• Dissertation and thesis guidance
• IELTS (Academic & General), speaking and writing focus
• Business English and professional communication

I hold a PhD in Applied Linguistics from Birkbeck, University of London, where my research focused on the psychology of language learning and student performance. I have published in leading international journals, including Applied Linguistics and The Language Learning Journal, and I serve as a peer reviewer for academic journals in psychology and multilingualism. This research background allows me to teach not only “how to write,” but how to think, analyse, and structure ideas at an advanced academic level.

My teaching style is structured, clear, and personalised. I break complex concepts into manageable steps and provide detailed, constructive feedback to accelerate improvement. Many of my students are international learners preparing for UK university study, professionals aiming to improve their academic English, or postgraduate students seeking support with dissertations and data analysis.

If you are looking for serious academic improvement, strategic IELTS preparation, or expert guidance with research and writing, I would be delighted to support your journey. اقرأ أقل

My teaching approach is structured, research-informed, and highly personalised. I diagnose students’ strengths and gaps, then design focused sessions targeting writing structure, argumentation, and clarity. I use step-by-step scaffolding, model answers, guided practice, and detailed feedback. For IELTS, I apply exam-specific strategies and timed simulations. My goal is measurable improvement and academic confidence. اقرأ أقل
