Hey, I’m Sarah Catherine.

☕️ 🐝 ✨

I’m a fully qualified School and EFL / ESL teacher from Manchester with more than 18 years of experience.

I also teach and mentor teachers.

My teaching style is friendly and resourceful - I like to create personalised experiences to help my students overcome their speaking fears and reach their goals.

I have worked and lived in 7 countries and speak: Spanish, German, Italian, French, Swedish and some Hebrew.

I have also studied Dutch and Russian.

I am a fan of coffee and when I am not teaching you can find me on the yoga mat, playing the piano or in the great outdoors, horse riding or walking.

I’m vegan and love to cook vegan dishes for my guests and friends.

🇬🇧 In 2023, I createdThe Language Bee, an Instagram page and community for English learners who love British, want to learn with the right mindset, personalised classed and finally speak English without fear.

🐝 The Language Bee

My lessons are all about you and your English goals.

From professionals to uni students, teachers and freelancers, I have helped people to improve their English and sound more fluent in British so they could:

  • pass their IELTS or Cambridge certificates
  • get a new job
  • pass their uni or school exams
  • speak English without fear
  • find new international clients
  • improve their English teaching skills
  • become more confident speakers

My teaching method works on 3 levels:

  • Speaking skills: lots of real and useful British
  • Mindset tips: with activities and materials to help you re-learn “how to learn” English in a way that works for you, neuro-friendly, creative and supportive
  • British cultural awareness: no boring theories but practical, small, actionable steps to help you understand how to really communicate and understand British language and culture

I am your teacher if you:

  1. Are a B1-level learner who wants to improve their level/skills
  2. Love British English
  3. Are looking for a hands-on, supportive teacher and want a real experience
  4. Want to work on creating your study mindset
  5. Want to improve your English and feel more confident and independent
