About Sadie
I am an English tutor with over 8 years of experience and hold a Bachelor of Arts in English and Creative Writing with a focus on Applied Linguistics. I specialize in English for Academic Purposes (EAP), helping students succeed in higher education. My lessons focus on writing research papers, understanding lectures, and improving academic vocabulary. I work with university students and international learners preparing for study abroad or advanced coursework. Lessons cover referencing, note-taking, and structuring arguments effectively. I emphasize clarity, coherence, and logical flow in both writing and reading. Students develop skills in analyzing texts, summarizing ideas, and synthesizing information from multiple sources. I also guide learners in mastering citation styles and academic conventions. Each session is tailored to individual needs, balancing skill-building with practical application. Feedback is constructive and encouraging, helping students gain confidence in academic tasks. I integrate exercises that strengthen comprehension, writing precision, and critical thinking. My goal is to help learners navigate complex academic materials with ease and competence. Together, we build the tools and confidence needed to excel in academic English. I aim to make learning purposeful, achievable, and inspiring. Every student can succeed in expressing ideas clearly and persuasively in English.

My teaching approach focuses on creativity, self-expression, and language mastery. Lessons cover creative writing, poetry, fiction-based learning, and vocabulary development. I encourage learners to explore language through imagination and storytelling, making lessons engaging and personal.
Students are guided to write freely while learning structure, style, and word choice. Reading and analyzing stories and poems helps develop critical thinking and a deeper understanding of language. I integrate exercises that expand vocabulary and strengthen descriptive and expressive skills.
Lessons are tailored to each student’s goals and interests, balancing guidance with freedom to experiment. Writing prompts, collaborative storytelling, and playful exercises make learning enjoyable. Feedback is constructive, highlighting strengths while encouraging growth.
I help learners gain confidence in expressing ideas, emotions, and narratives in English. Sessions often include discussions, creative projects, and reflection to build fluency and style. My approach nurtures curiosity, self-expression, and the joy of language.
Together, we explore the power of words, develop unique voices, and foster a lifelong love for English. The goal is not only to improve skills but also to inspire creativity and confidence in every learner.
