Native English Speaker offering one-to-one tuition in English as a foreign language

Hi there! My name is Caitlin Adonis and I am 22 years old. I am originally from South Africa but spent 7.5 years living in Dubai where I completed my secondary school education before moving to England in 2020 to study at university. I have always been very academically driven and received a distinction upon completion of the International General Certificate for Secondary Education (IGCSE) before receiving my high school diploma through the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). Additionally, I had the opportunity to serve as Head Girl during my senior year. Presently, I am studying Music (Songwriting and Performance) at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) and working as a student ambassador at LIPA as well as doing casual work for their widening participation team such as leading and supporting music workshops or directing a small choir of high school students. In addition to my experience as a student ambassador and music workshop leader, I also worked as an assistant teacher for a kids’ theatre summer camp in Dubai. Through my work as a teacher and supporting workshop leader, I have discovered how to plan lessons that are adapted to a specific age group, experience level, learning style etc. and have gained the skills necessary to not only teach a group of students but also in a more personal one-on-one setting. In addition to my work as a music workshop leader, English is my first language and has always been a passion for me alongside music. I received third place in the 15-17 age group for the Oxford University Press Story Writing Competition in the UAE in 2017 and received the highest grade possible in GCSE English Language (A*) as well as receiving an A in English Literature. As for my high school diploma, I received a B in English Literature. Thus, I am highly qualified tutor students in English (creative writing as well as literature and comprehension) in addition to supporting them with homework in the subject.
