I am the head of the Academic Team, and our job is to make sure you are in the class that is best for you and getting the most out of your lessons. We also run monthly tutorials, where we talk about your progress and you have a chance to explain any problems you have.

I have been at Stafford House since January 2021, and before that I was working in Italy as a teacher and teacher trainer. My specialism is teaching for exams, so ask me about IELTS or Cambridge exams if you want more information! I love working in language schools because I'm able to meet so many people from so many fascinating backgrounds and cultures.

London is a big, beautiful and bustling place to study!  Whether it’s for a couple of weeks or several months, you’re sure to have a fantastic time here!  However, like all things new, it might take some getting used to.  As the Accommodation Officer for Stafford House, my job is to help you settle in London life, feel comfortable and really enjoy this wonderful city that I call home!

 I've been working in teaching since 2015, which is when I moved to London. Although I'm from Australia, I feel like London is my home. I'm sure you'll soon feel the same! I love working in a language school because you get to meet people from all over the world.

Hi I’m Varinder and I’m from London but was born in India. I speak three languages. I have been a teacher since 1992 and a teacher trainer and academic manager since 2001. As well as London, I worked as a teacher in Turkey for 5 years.  I love everything about teaching and training and helping people achieve their goals. I have worked in nine different schools and colleges during the last 30 years. My favourite thing about working at Stafford House London is the staff and students. Everyone is so friendly and nice.

I am Alex and I have been teaching English as a second language for 8 years in London and for about 14 years in total. I have a real passion for languages. My first language is Romanian, but I also speak Italian, Spanish, and French. Teaching is my way of being of service and I love every aspect of it, even the more challenging ones. I taught in Romania and Spain but working in London is by far my favourite place to be as it allows me to meet students and teachers from all over the world. I cannot wait to see you in my class and to help you become a confident English speaker.

Hi. I'm Jenny and I’ve been teaching English to non-native speakers for over 20 years. I’m from London, but spent many years working in Russia, including as a Cambridge examiner for the British Council. When I’m not teaching I enjoy the theatre, museums, pubs and eating out, so London’s the perfect location for me, with so much to offer. You can also find me out of town on warm weekends as I’m a fan of long country walks and swimming too. I’m really happy to be here at Stafford House as it has some of the best teachers I’ve met and a really welcoming atmosphere.

As cities go, London has to be one of the best in which to learn English. Its fast-paced, cosmopolitan vibe means there is always something interesting and fun waiting around every corner. The vast cultural scene in London plays a strong part in my teaching here at Stafford House and I try to incorporate anything and everything that I feel my students will find both engaging and informative. I prefer to teach General English, but I have also taught for Cambridge Main Suite exams, but whatever class I'm teaching I love to challenge my students to always perform above and beyond.

My colourful English teaching career comprises many years and continents. Most notably, I have spent a lot of time teaching in Germany and the United States, but I have been based in London since the very beginning of Stafford House London in 2011. I love integrating reading and literature into my classes, and I have taught on a wide variety of courses at Stafford House as one of its founding members.

I have been teaching in London for many years, and my specialism is teaching Business English, but I have also helped students pass exams like IELTS and Cambridge B2 First. Before teaching, I lived in France for 10 years,  so well understand the challenges of using a second language. For me, learning is serious, but it is also fun - so I insist you have fun in my classes! Despite my years in Paris, I am a true Londoner and am proud to share my language and city with people from all over the world. It is also a privilege to meet so many of you and to have the opportunity of experiencing your culture.

I'm a DELTA-qualified teacher with over 15 years of experience in the ELT sector, with a wide range of areas of interests from IELTS to main suite exams and General English. I am the IELTS Subject Leader at Stafford House London, so please ask me any questions you'd like about this exam, and I'll help you get the score you need. I really enjoy what I do, and I'm looking forward to meeting you all.

I'm a Londoner who loves London town and all its history and culture. I've been with Stafford House since May 2016 and think this is the best school in London! Over the last few years, I've taught English in many different schools around the world, and I still love meeting new people every week.

Since starting at Stafford House, I have taught many different courses including the Professional Certificate courses in Marketing and Project Management, and Business English. I look forward to meeting you and helping you improve your English in the classroom and perhaps in some of the marvellous pubs we have in this area!

I have taught in many different schools, but always in London. I've lived and worked in London for over 30 years and love being part of such a great city. Teaching here is a really fantastic job; I get the opportunity to meet people from all over the world, and love learning about the students' homes as much as I love teaching. Making a difference to the lives of my students is what drives me, so if I can help you in any way, just ask. I'll do my best to help, whether it's about grammar, London, food, or football!
