Hi, I’m Jocelyn. I’m an Architecture student from Bristol, and I go to Cardiff University. I was previously volunteering as an English teacher at a Bilingual Academy, on my year out living abroad in Seville, and I also completed an Architecture Internship when I was there. For the last two years, I’ve been tutoring students of all ages. These have ranged from pupils preparing for curriculum exams, to learning English as their second language.

I have always made sure to be sympathetic to students' situations, and am flexible with lesson lengths and times. I make every effort to accommodate your needs and targets as a student, to ensure we approach the lesson in a way that works best for you. My aim is to facilitate your learning development with interactive lessons that you can fit into your schedule, without making you feel overloaded.

Having a family background in education has inspired me to gain my TEFL qualification, which has given me the knowledge to be able to teach a range of lessons within the subject of English. These include: Business English for a workplace setting, conversational English, grammar and preparing for curriculum exams, to name just a few.

During lessons, lots of speaking is key, as I thrive on being able to build a good relationship with my students. I’m young and enthusiastic, and always welcome questions. If this approach to learning feels like it could work for you, or you’d like to discuss your objectives in more detail, please feel free to book a trial session. I look forward to meeting you.

Hello from Los Angeles! My name is Sean and I am both a TEFL-certified English teacher, and a Lean Six Sigma-certified project manager with a business background in IT, analytics, and recruiting. I'm also a language learner just like you (Spanish B2 and German B1), so I know the joys and challenges of learning and improving a second language very well. With 3 years of experience teaching English in a private 1-to-1 setting, as well as a lifetime of working with and interacting with non-native English speakers of every level, I'm excited to share my passion for the English language and help you accomplish your goals on your path toward fluency!

I offer three types of lessons: 

(1) Conversational Classes. To help you become more confident while speaking, correct your grammar, and learn natural phrases & expressions from a California-born native speaker. 

(2) Business English Classes. With my background in project management, IT/analytics, and recruiting, I can help you develop your business vocabulary, presentation skills, and self-confidence -- to advance your career or prepare for a job interview. 

(3) Test Prep. To coach you on test-taking strategies for the IETLS, TOEFL, and more -- with an emphasis on improving your speaking and writing.

All my lessons are customized to each student's needs, and I adapt and update them as required -- with extra resources and homework upon request. Book a trial lesson with me today to see if I am the right fit to help guide you on your English-speaking journey.

p.s. A little more about me: In my spare time, you'll find me reading and watching TV series, playing video games, or practicing guitar. I also travel frequently and love learning about new cultures... tell me something about yours!

I originally started teaching in a school and companies to individuals and groups in 2010 whilst living in Brazil. In 2014, I returned to the UK and focused on teaching online.

A trial class will enable us to discuss your expectations, teaching methods and material. From this moment onwards, I will provide you with a class focused on achieving your goals in a focused, professional and pleasant environment.

My career before teaching has included law, slaes, IT and telecommunication across 3 continents. Born in London to a British mother and Italian father, I am married to a Brazilian and have been studying Portuguese for many years. 

I enjoy meeting people, experiencing other cultures and making a positive difference in people's lives.

About Me: Hello! I'm Tony. I'm from North East Scotland. I'm a TEFL and CeOLT certified English teacher and I love learning languages and helping people succeed with their goals so that they can achieve what they want from life. I want you to succeed. Together, we will make that happen! 

• Do you feel like your English is still not as good as you want it to be?
• Do you feel anxious, nervous or lack confidence when you have to speak English?
• Do you feel that it's difficult to understand people because they talk too fast or that you're missing the words you need to express yourself?
• Do you need someone to help you achieve the level of English you've always dreamed of? Then my lessons are for you!​

In my lessons I will:

• Create lessons that will target areas of English you don't have confidence in.
• Send you a document after every lesson with corrections for things you say + explanations for the corrections.
• Give pronunciation and accent reduction assistance if you want to sound more native.
• Make sure you learn something new every lesson and that you're comfortable and enjoying English!

Let's work together, so we can remove "Learning English" from your 'to do' list. 

Book a trial now and let's have fun mastering English!  :)

Dear students, greetings!

I've had my degree in emergency medical care for an amazing 16 years, and I find teaching this topic to be very fulfilling. I started my journey as an English teacher for a non-profit organization about ten years ago. I worked hard to obtain my TEFL certificate in order to improve my teaching abilities.

I sincerely feel privileged to be able to impart my vast knowledge and experience to each and every one of you.

As a teacher, I firmly believe that it is crucial to modify my teaching strategies to meet the individual needs of every student. I enjoy teaching people who have a never-ending curiosity just as much as I enjoy learning new things. You may expect a vibrant, useful, pleasurable, and stimulating educational experience.  

With great anticipation, I look forward to working with each of you to achieve your learning goals. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. Together, we will create an enjoyable and rewarding learning experience.

I'm here to help, whether your goal is to improve your English for a forthcoming trip or to become fluent in order to pursue your ideal job. To get started on your learning journey, please feel free to schedule a trial lesson with me.

I sincerely look forward to getting to know every one of you and helping you fulfil your language-learning goals. If you have any questions or issues, don't be afraid to contact us. Combined, let us make your journey to learn a language joyful and successful!

Do you need to improve your English? I have tried-and-tested methods to help ESL students become more fluent and confident. I have a degree in education, a TEFL/TESL certificate, and an Online Teaching certificate with lots of experience. I have also authored English textbooks and study guides for children in the primary school.  

My approach is holistic. I use interesting topics, pronunciation drills and language videos to help develop fluency AND accuracy. I am patient and very encouraging as I believe students learn best when they feel relaxed. I've had great results with many students aiming to get to a new English level or maintain a high level. With advanced students, I like to discuss complex topics and deal with work-related issues.  

I have lived in South Africa my whole life but have been fortunate to travel to many countries and experience many different cultures and of course, delicious dishes. I enjoy the outdoors and spending time with family and friends. I also love keeping up to date with current affairs including sport, politics, and arts and culture. Apart from being a dedicated teacher, I am also a wife, a mother and proud dog owner! I look forward to meeting you and being part of your language learning journey.
