No reviews yet

Hello! Nice to meet you. My name is Sanjay; I was born in England and have been teaching English in London for the past seven years.
Recently, my wife and I have moved to Bali and I am looking for interested, hard-working and conscientious students who I can tutor and develop good working relationships with.
I will try my hardest to get to know you first and adapt my teaching to suit your interests; I believe that if I can make the learning engaging to you personally, you will learn so much more efficiently!
I, myself, am extremely passionate about English; I love to teach any form of Literature, from Shakespearean plays, to classic fiction, to poetry - and everything in between! If you have a set text that you need to learn, revise or complete practice questions for, I would love to be of assistance. Equally, I have worked as an A-Level examiner and I am very proficient in helping students write coursework essays.
I have taught English Language for the past seven years too - including speaking and listening. I am happy to coach any level of English speaker with conversational or interview skills, depending on your needs.
I hope to hear from you soon!
