What I do
Hi, I’m Katie Salter and I'm an online English teacher. I teach adult learners one-to-one using Zoom or Skype.
A new student recently told me that she knows she makes mistakes when she speaks English and she's afraid of sounding like an idiot! I know how she feels because I'm the same when I try to speak another language! My job is to help you overcome that feeling.
After working with me, students say that they have more confidence using English and they can speak more fluently. I've also been told that I explain grammar in a new way, showing learners things that they never realised before, and helping them to understand how the language works.
I enjoy meeting students from all over the world, getting to know them and learning about their country and their culture. I believe that we can all continue learning throughout our whole lives and this job is great because it gives me the opportunity to keep learning too!
I also get satisfaction from enabling people to reach their language learning goals. I can help you to communicate more confidently at work or with friends and family, to be able to meet new people or to pass your English exams.

Ten random things about me!
- I grew up in Nottinghamshire, Robin Hood country, and my parents and still live there.
- I have a science degree from Durham University! A lot of my students are surprised when they learn that I studied science at university but I think it helps me to approach language with an analytical mind!
- I was a primary school teacher for six years. Then I retrained as an English teacher and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made!
- My first job teaching English was in Warsaw, Poland, where I lived for two and a half years. It was a great experience!
- In 2002, I returned to the UK and studied for my teaching diploma. Since then, I've lived and worked in Cambridge. I worked in a language school for 18 years.
- In 2020, I decided to set up my own business, partly as a result of the COVID pandemic and partly because it had been my dream for some time.
- Over the years, I have learnt French, German, Polish and Spanish, but not to a high level! I think my experience of learning languages helps me to understand the difficulties that my students have with English and I believe it makes me a better teacher.
- I've been a vegetarian since I was 18.
- I love reading and I watch far too much TV! I especially like fantasy and science fiction.
- I love teaching English one-to-one as it really gives me the chance to help students with exactly what they need.
