I specialize in teaching adults, especially white-collar employees, to ‘Speak English better, or more fluently’ on a wide range of general and business topics. I have taught more than 12600 lessons to 1483 students, many for a couple of years!

Hi, I am Gary, born and raised in London. I have a TESOL Teaching Certificate and 12+ years of teaching experience, in both Business English and IELTS 6.5 7.0 7.5+, online since 2016 and at schools and universities in China. 

A first-class communicator and motivator with excellent interpersonal skills, and looking forward to transferring these abilities, using my knowledge of Business English and IELTS 6.5 7.0 7.5+.  With this proven method, you will quickly improve your communication skills. 

A trial lesson is a good way to try out my English teaching methods. → Shall we make a start?

Cambridge IELTS Academic & IELTS General Training; SPEAKING ONLY → Do you need band seven or higher in the IELTS speaking test? Who is it for? Those who need to take a real-life IELTS SPEAKING test in a hurry. All aspects of the IELTS Speaking test are covered, just like the real test, with ideas and useful expressions to use in all parts of the test, and how to approach the IELTS examiner’s questions. 

Real life conversation → often looks very different to dialogues in coursebooks. I specialize in teaching adults, especially WHITE-COLLAR EMPLOYEES, to ‘Speak English better, or more fluently,’ You need to keep up a conversation on a wide range of general and business topics, expressing opinions and presenting arguments. Good form, in fact, is not to try to initiate any topics of conversation yourself at all.

Communicate effectively → in business face-to-face situations, such as everyday business conversations, with ideas and useful expressions to use, like Business Phrasal verbs. 

Communication Skills → A good way to practice intonation and fluency is by copying the rhythm of native speakers. A dictation exercise in which a piece of writing is dictated to students, to test their ability to hear and write the language correctly.

What is not covered in my lessons?  

In the process of designing courses on LanguaTalk.  The teaching of young children, grammar rules and (phonics), or writing also informal tutoring are not covered.
