Hi! My name is Katie and I am from Wales in the U.K. I have always been really interested in languages and the importance of combining language with knowledge of culture. Therefore, I completed my degree in English Language and Linguistics and during that my interests developed in teaching and speech therapy. During my degree I studied in Amsterdam and realised that this was the place I wanted to be in the long term due to the multicultural nature of the city. I undertook a course in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and gained experience in teaching in the U.K before moving to The Netherlands to broaden my journey in teaching.

I am very passionate about teaching English in an encouraging and engaging way. I like to get to know my students so that their learning path is tailored to them and their interests. I really love to see what a difference English can make to the lives of others.

During my free time, I love to read, explore the outdoors, and socialise with friends. You will always catch me with a nice cup of English Breakfast tea in my hand too.

I very much look forward to meeting you and making you feel at home at Language Corner whilst building your confidence with English. I hope to see you very soon!
