Our English Homestay Tutor of the Month
Here at Learn English in a Homestay, we are always delighted to introduce new and exciting Tutors to you. This month we want to highlight our tutor Sarisha who lives in a beautiful picturesque “ typical English” village close to the market town of Colchester . Did you know that Colchester was the first British City and is a truly amazing place to spend a day visiting and enjoying?
Sarisha is a very innovative Tutor and Mentor and really enjoys preparing her lessons in a very individual way for each of her students. She will make contact with you beforehand and ensure that your interests and needs are recognised and therefore each English lesson that she takes with you will ensure that you are propelled forward to improving your English is a more natural and relaxed way
Sarisha is also interested in mentoring and so this provided a good backdrop for new and inexperienced Learners. Her kind and patient manner of teaching is idea to promote confidence for all new English speakers.
Living in her delightful village close to Colchester means that there are also lots of interesting walks to be had. After a morning of improving your English you can be sure that a brisk walk with Shadow her family dog. This is an ideal time to take stock of the morning’s lessons as well as clear your head. Lunch is always taken together and then the afternoons are either spent in exploring the local area to places such as Clacton Pier for an evening meal of Fish and Chips – not to be missed or visiting one of the more beautiful beaches such as Brightlingsea; Mersea Island or St Osyth beach. All truly breath-taking in their own way.
She lives within an hour of Stansted Airport. This is an ideal way to enter the UK due to the many different low cost carriers who land here. Do check out if your local airport flies to Stansted.
Sarish was born in in South Africa and has obtained a degree in Law amongst her many English teaching qualifications. This is what she personally has to say about her lessons.
“Hi, I’m Sarisha, I was born in the Rainbow Nation, South Africa but have made a home for myself under London’s grey skies where I discovered my true passion for helping other people find their paths in life. I offer life and mindset coaching services to clients across the UK and Europe via video conferencing as well as teaching innovative and exciting English lessons to non native speakers
. I am dedicated to help my clients /coaches /students find direction and purpose in their lives and to assist people who feel like they have reached a stalemate in life, to move on and achieve their full potential. Often learning a new language, such as English is a brilliant first move!
My background is in the legal profession, having completed a Bachelor of Laws degree in South Africa and an advanced certificate in Compliance from Manchester Business School. My rich corporate experience in practising as an admitted attorney for several years as well as a stint as a successful entrepreneur coupled with my passion for helping people get their lives back on track, prompted me to acquire the relevant coaching skills and transform my career. I am also a facilitator and moderator. I train, coach people and I love it. I am continuously upskilling and enjoy reading.
I love making homemade remedies, natural body, and cleaning products. I also have a keen interest in practicing yoga, Qi Gong and stretching. I have recently enrolled in a course on somatic stretching. My biggest strength is people and networking.
To recap;
I will focus students in their learning, meaning I work with the student’s strengths to build confidence and will design lessons according to the student’s needs, e.g. if visual or auditory etc , development of english language skills and communication is key in teaching and building a good rapport with my students is very important and I always aim to meet my students where they are at.
I am really looking forward to meeting you…”
