About me
Hi,my name is Kim and I have been a literacy teacher since 1996.I really enjoy helping people to read and write English.I have hosted foreign students for the past year and have really enjoyed their company and helping them to communicate successfully
I have been married for 37 years to Jerry,who is a carpenter, and we have two children,aged 25 and 32, and one grandson aged 5.
We have a warm and relaxed household and enjoy meeting people.We have two cats .
I love cooking for people,walking,reading, listening to music and recently have become addicted to crosswords!I am interested in art and would be happy to escort guests to art exhibitions in London ,using it as an opportunity for teaching and learning English.
I live in Bostall Heath which is six miles from central London.We have very good transport links into central London .The train journey only takes about 25 minutes.Bostall Heath has lovely,ancient woodlands , if you are a keen walker, and historic Greenwich is near with riverside walks and beautiful buildings,if you like history.
I would be happy to escort students ,if required,and show them the sights of London and support them with English conversation as part of a lesson or equally happy for my home to be used as a base for the more confident traveller and just give travel directions!

We live in a Victorian house in a very quiet road two minutes walk from Bostall Heath.We have a beautiful double/twin bedroom with en-suite bathroom for our guests and we will do our best to make you as comfortable as possible.
