I have also worked and volunteered in the humanitarian and development sector for ten years, working with organizations such as the UN & Red Cross.

My basic premise is that anything you can say, you should be able to write. I do not think writing well and clearly should really be beyond anybody. I believe being able to write is useful because it is a method to practice critical thinking, and be better able to express and test what we think, and why. Now, as we position ourselves for the future, critical thinking seems to be something we need more of. I really love helping people and it makes me really happy when my students are able to write more clearly, feel more confident, and can see the relevance of literature more lucidly in their lives. I am also very curious about how we learn, absorb and analyze information, particularly in environments that are often so oversaturating and desensitizing. I see the most substantial and sustained improvement when I work with students for 1-3 hours a week, for a minimum of three months. Within 2-3 months, I generally start to see my students improve. With 6 months it seems this improvement becomes more substantial and long-lasting. This writing course is structured with the above intentions. For the first three months the focus is the following: Month One: - Basic structure of a piece of writing - Inclusion, and then integration of evidence such as quotes, technique & statistics. Which quotes, techniques & stats to use and why. Month Two: - How to use an introduction to establish the structure, scope and thesis of a piece of writing - Breaking down the internal structure of a paragraph, and different ways to organize it Month Three: - Ways to approach the overall flow of the text, and ensure arguments support each other cohesively - How to make the conclusion expand on, rather than repeat the introduction I also focus on how to approach studying a specific text, including time and relevant organizational skills. I always prioritize the safety and mental well-being of the student. For the three months following that, we focus on how to do all this well. If you think this could be useful for you, I'd like to work with you.

With Edugraff, Jaye has been tutoring my son Alan in English weekly for nine months now and we have seen an improvment in his marks, his confidence and he is currently having issues with quality and structure of his writing he would like to focus in-depth on past works and improve further.
They work together to identify areas Alan can improve in and he seems comfortable and happy how it's going.I was lucky to be introduced to Jaye through a friend who spoke highly of her as an English tutor. As a non-native speaker running a business in Australia, I recognized the importance of fluent English in establishing meaningful connections, whether at formal business events or casual networking functions.
Upon approaching Jaye, my aim was to enhance my grammar skills in both speaking and writing, and to gain insights into how native speakers communicate with each other. From the very beginning, Jaye displayed a keen interest in understanding my specific needs and business context. She took the time to familiarize herself with my industry, ensuring that the content we covered was not only relevant but also tailored to my situation.
What sets Jaye apart is not just her effective teaching approach and methods, but also her ability to create a comfortable and enjoyable learning environment. In our classes, she attentively listens to my concerns and feelings, making the learning experience truly personalized. Jaye goes above and beyond by crafting post-class plans and tasks for me to practice and reinforce what I've learned.
I highly recommend Jaye to anyone seeking to improve their English for specific professional needs. Her dedication, personalized approach, and ability to create a tailored learning experience make her an exceptional tutor. Thanks to Jaye, I not only feel more confident in my language skills but also genuinely enjoy the learning process.

Jaye is extremely professional and knowledgeable. She has great patience and various ways of explaining concepts I struggle understanding. She has an extensive knowledge in various topics and is continuously furthering her studies. Don't think twice to do a class with her! You will not regret it. She has helped me going from a "pass" student to a distinction student and I couldn't have done it without all her help.
Jaye is an exceptional communicator, relationship builder and incredibly patient and respectful to all students from all backgrounds - attributes which make her an outstanding teacher. She has high levels of language and subject matter expertise, not only in her own understanding, but additionally in her skills and ability to distil complex concepts in political science, government, international relations and other subjects, into understandable pieces for her students. This is additionally bolstered through her extensive, international practical and academic experience. Ultimately, alongside her incredibly enthusiastic demeanour, Jaye is able to tailor lessons to the person she is working with, providing effective, long-lasting knowledge, instruction and understanding. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jaye as a teacher and mentor.
Jaye is exceptionally kind and patient. She is passionate about teaching, and takes a personal interest in her students to build her lessons according to their needs. Her language skills are phenomenal and she is always eager to share her knowledge.
