Hazel - Huddersfield tutor






Information About Hazel:


Personal Description:

I am a freelance journalist with a degree and MA in English language and computational linguistics. I work from home and contribute on a regular basis to the Guardian, Telegraph, Independent and many of the major music magazines. I am a qualified subeditor and used to edit Muso, a classical music magazine.



Teaching Experience:

I have taught at Leeds University on the linguistics degree course and also in the computing department in HTML programming. I have experience of teaching English as a foreign language at residential summer camps and I have undertaken degree modules in the application of teaching methods for EFL.



Tutoring Approach:

I have a holistic approach to tutoring, believing that it's sometimes better to start from the beginning and understand the problem as a whole before focusing on details. Often the problem can be much larger than spelling or grammar and it is therefore necessary to get back to basics first. I am informal and approachable with a sense of fun!
