Judy Cresswell
DELTA-qualified English teacher specialising in Business English for international professionals
I work with international professionals in senior and specialist roles who already use English at work but want greater clarity, confidence, and control when communicating with Western teams.
My background includes advanced teaching qualifications and recent training in online English teaching, with a strong focus on adult learners and professional communication.
My approach is practical and personalised. Sessions are based on real work situations and often use a flipped format, with short preparatory material provided in advance so live sessions focus on meaningful discussion, speech clarity, and confident use of language.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
What Clients Say
“I've been working with Miss Judy for 6 years as a tutor for my son, and I cannot express enough how much she has helped him. When we first moved to Australia, my son didn't know any English, and Miss Judy played a key role in helping him adapt to life in a new country with a new language. Her lessons are well-structured and tailored to individual needs, making learning both effective and enjoyable. Thanks to her dedication and personalized approach, my son's English has improved significantly, and he is now much more confident in both speaking and understanding the language.”
- Andreas Fernandez Biggs, Chile.
“I have known Mrs Jude Cresswell since 2012. I have worked with her at the Ardmore Language Schools and she was my line manager, the Academic Director. She is one of the most professional people I have known in my life, a true expert in the field of English language teaching. She has always proved to be a reliable partner and a great colleague.
Her management strategies were aimed at motivating staff and encouraging teachers to develop their personal styles of teaching.”- Kaloyan Kostadinov, Bulgaria.
