A Few Words
About Our Tutors
Before you know it, we will be chatting like old friends!
Lynne Pieterse
Founder & Tutor
Hi, I am Lynne, a native English speaker living in sunny South Africa. I am a fully qualified English teacher with a Certificate in English Language Teaching and over ten years experience as a tutor. I also speak the African dialects of Afrikaans and Chalapalapa.
Lots of people struggle to learn a new language, possibly having bad experiences in school. I want to counteract that with a natural way to learn, at your own pace, by bringing English to life through authentic conversation, with personalised topics that interest you.
My students are often amazed at how quickly they improve. It’s a real joy to see them holding conversations fluently. I look forward to you getting in touch so we can discuss your learning goals!

Andrew Buller
Author & Tutor
Hi, I am Andrew, an English children’s author, poet and tutor, with a passion to inspire others to learn in fun, imaginative and innovative ways, honing my craft over the last fifteen years.
When teaching younger children I love to use an ‘All About Me’ book that I have written and illustrated to draw out what is important to them. As we work together their own unique book is created!
Working with older children and adults I love to find out what interests them, tailoring sessions to their needs.
I am determined to make the language learning process fun and creative for all my students. Learning happens so much faster when you are enjoying it!
I love teaching because it is investing in people’s lives
Vicki Oosthuis
Teacher & Tutor
Hi, I am Vicki, a qualified teacher and English tutor, passionate about teaching English and investing in people’s lives.
I particularly enjoy helping students with their reading and grammar, and enabling them to work out the meaning of words using a variety of techniques.
I started my career teaching high school English, but for the last twenty years I’ve taught TESOL all over the world to adults. I have lived in six countries on three different continents.
I have six grandchildren and a Yorkshire terrier who is my constant companion.
