UQ Masters student, experienced tutor in English, English as a second language, Environment and Urban Design.

I have worked with Simone for one year now. When I began working with Simone, my English was not the best. I have felt my confidence grow with her and I enjoy our sessions.

Simone listens to me, helps me pronounce words that I struggle with and asks questions that allow me to change and grow. She regularly checks in to see if I am following along with the lesson.

My favourite thing about lessons with Simone is that I have a choice of different topics to talk about. These are not only normal topics but also things that are not normally spoken about in my country.

Simone makes the lessons fun and they go by quickly and do not feel like a chore.
