About Abi – Cambridge-Trained Online British English Tutor

I’m Abi, a Cambridge-trained online English tutor with over 20 years’ teaching experience across the UK and internationally. I founded Home Star Tuition to provide expert British English tuition for home educated children, expat families, world-schooling and travelling families worldwide.

My approach to online English tuition

Every child I teach gets a fully customised lesson, built around their individual learning style, ability and pace. I use the latest teaching technologies to deliver engaging, interactive sessions via Zoom – making high-quality British English tuition accessible to families anywhere in the world, regardless of time zone.

Tuition for families who learn differently

I understand that home educators, world-schoolers and expat families have diverse and deeply considered approaches to their children’s education. My teaching is shaped around your family’s values, beliefs and educational philosophy – not a rigid curriculum. Whether your child needs structured academic support, creative writing development, or simply a confidence boost, sessions are tailored specifically to them.

Culturally sensitive, inclusive teaching

Having taught in the UK, New Zealand and online across multiple countries and cultures, I bring genuine international experience to every lesson. I work with children from a wide range of backgrounds and learning needs, and I’m committed to creating a learning environment where every child feels valued, included and inspired.
