Karen: Bradford tutor

Certified Tutor

Helping students find their voice in English, especially in professional and academic settings is something I care deeply about. Over the past eight years, I've worked with learners from all over the world, guiding them through everything from job interviews and presentations to business correspondence and everyday conversations. Watching students grow in confidence and achieve their goals is very satisfying for me!

I hold a degree in psychology, and I've spent my career focusing on teaching English as a Second Language, with a specialization in Business English and communication skills. My work has included one-on-one coaching, group classes, and customized support for professionals in fields like healthcare, IT, and international business.

I tutor English, ESL, Business English, professional writing, and interview prep as well as help students prepare for medical residency programs in the USA or Canada.

My teaching philosophy is rooted in respect, positivity, and practical real-life application. I take a student-centered approach that adapts to each learner's pace, goals, and background. I believe learning is most effective when it's meaningful and practical, so I aim to make every session engaging, interactive, and immediately useful.
