A Sketch of the Stafford House London teachers… Archetypes and stereotypes (just a bit of fun!)


Here are some images and associations people make with some of the teachers at Stafford House London.

Peter is “The IELTS Wizard”
Take a look at Gandalf:


Now take a look at Peter:



See any similarities? Well Peter also has the ability to make IELTS classes FUN! Now that is magical!

Sarah is “Little Miss Sunshine”


Frequently described as “a ray of sunshine” and  “one of the most positive people I have met” and “an inspiring natural teacher”. Sarah knows that happy students learn better!



We don’t often get a lot of this:


…so it’s great to have a teacher who makes you feel the sun is always shining!

John is “The Actor”

John is one of the few members of our team actually born in London, and his dramatic leanings make him and excellent pronunciation teacher.



John likes to take centre stage, but he also likes pushing his students into the limelight and helping them to improve their performance.

Sean is “The King of Comedy”


Sean loves teaching but he also has a real passion for stand-up comedy.  Sometimes he manages to combine the two!


After classes Sean can be seen performing or being the compere at comedy nights across the capital. Sean knows that laughing when you are learning makes the lesson memorable!


These are just 4 of the teaching team at Stafford HouseLondon. If you have any memories or sketches of other teachers on the team- leave a comment below!
