Hi everyone! My name is Kristi. I grew up in St. Thomas and moved to London to attend Western University. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English and Cultural Studies and French Language and Literature from Huron University College. I also minored in Music.
In 2019, I completed my Master of Arts in English and Cultural Studies at Western.
I have been tutoring elementary school and high school students in French and English since I was a French Immersion student in high school. I also tutored and taught university students in French and English literature throughout my time at Western. Now, I am very excited to continue helping students learn—and learn how to learn—as part of the excellent team of teachers at Oxford Learning!
In my spare time, I enjoy learning new things. I love reading, listening to music, and spending time with my large family.

My name is Daniella and by trade, I am a teacher. I worked in Northern England for two years as an English teacher, and I spent one year in Wales prior to that. My family means everything to me, so I moved back to London to be closer to them. I have a passion for English Literature; you will rarely find me without a book in my bag. Outside of that, I enjoy dancing and baking. I am enthusiastic, hardworking, and I love nothing more than getting to know people and the stories they have to share.

Andrew Devoy
Teacher- English

Hello! My name is Andrew and I am a graduate of Western’s Music program with a focus on music education for guitar. I loved teaching and learning so much that I completed my Bachelor of Education from Althouse College in 2019. I enjoy incorporating elements of music into my teaching style at Oxford Learning and with Thames Valley District School Board.
During my time at teacher’s college, I was able to experience a placement with the London Montessori Academy where I developed a deep appreciation for the Montessori method. The five principles of the Montessori method are: 1. Children are shown respect; 2. Children have absorbent minds; 3. Sensitive periods are critical for learning; 4. Children learn best in a prepared environment and; 5. Children can teach themselves through exploration. I believe Oxford Learning strategies have beautiful synergy with these five tenets and I value the opportunities I have been given to teach with these principles as my foundation.
In my spare time you can find me teaching guitar in the London area, learning new things online, and studying computer programming to automate a variety of daily tasks in my life! Never stop learning!
