Our teachers

Adrienne Hughes

Born and raised near Manchester, Adrienne studied politics at Leeds University. After working for many years as a chartered accountant at Ernst & Young, she decided to change to a people-focused career and qualified as an English teacher in 2013.

Adrienne loves language and wants to share this passion with you through her friendly but professional approach to teaching. Adults and children both feel at home in her lessons and often find themselves laughing as they learn.

Adrienne is a CELTA-certified teacher with a masters degree in Applied Linguistics from the University of Birmingham. In addition, she teaches maths to primary and secondary school children, helping her students to gain confidence in this key skill.

Peter

Peter is from Worcestershire, home of the famous sauce. In addition to teaching, he is our writing expert and can proofread your documents, create text for your website, or help you to express your ideas. He has worked as a research scientist, a computer systems designer, and as a professional writer.

Conversation classes with Peter are fun, and students appreciate his knowledge of sport, music, and how English is used in the real world. You are sure to learn some useful new vocabulary if you join one of his classes.
