Nia

Hello my name is Nia and I am from the Wales in the United Kingdom. I have just come back from travelling in South America and I am currently living in Cardiff. I have extensive tutoring experience in drama and teaching basic Spanish. During Covid, a lot of that tutoring moved online. After completing my TEFL qualification I am hoping to do some more tutoring around South America. I trained as an actor at a drama school in London and theatre, literature, music and performance are my passions. I also do some writing and alternative performances in Cardiff. I am passionate about teaching and helping others develop more opportunities using the English language, I am encouraging, friendly and very supportive. I graduated my TEFL qualification in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Previous to this, I was a tutoring in LAMDA for children and I worked as a drama teacher for Stagecoach, Stageworks and in special Educational Needs schools across the United Kingdom. I also taught basic Spanish online. I have a BA Hons in Drama and Theatre Arts, an MA in Acting. My subject expertise is English and Drama. I utilise a lot of my drama games into my teaching in order to make my lessons fun and memorable. My lessons are interactive and energetic. I specialise in teaching children and teaching adults with little to experience in speaking English. I also offer voice coaching, diction and pronunciation lessons. I am a working actor and I use a lot of my experience in acting to help with my lessons. I also offer one off interview preparation to help you gain confidence and achieve your goals! Book a taster session with me so you can decide if my tutoring is suitable for you. I will ask you a series of questions to help me get to know my students. I will also cater for you, if you are neurodivergent or if you find traditional learning more challenging. It is all centred around my pupils and their experience. I have a professional methodology to teaching English so you get the most out of this experience.
