Hi! My name is Martin, I'm British (from the south of England) and I am currently working as a group and private tutor of English online with a major American company. I'm currently living in Germany, but am about to start studying German and Japanese at Manchester University in the UK from September.
Having tutored more than 300 students from every continent around the world with more than 1800 hours worth of online tutoring experience, you can be confident that your English needs will be met and that improvements will be seen in a very short amount of time.
I offer a variety of options, all designed to give you the best value and the most targeted service tailored to your requirements. Although every student is different and your individual needs can be discussed in a 30 min trial class prior to commencing our sessions, examples of previous courses I have taught include:
- General English
- Conversation
- Pronunciation Training
- Business English
- Exam Preparation (usually IELTS)
I make use of a variety of different resources in my sessions including current news articles and other media, such as video clips, particularly if the content enriches the students' understanding of the cultures of English speaking countries, particularly the UK. An interactive, online whiteboard is also sometimes used to help clarify language points and to act as a tool for language related games and activities, which often prove popular among the younger of my students, although the grown-ups often appreciate this aswell ;).
For those students wanting more structured sessions in which language progress is usually faster, a variety of coursebooks can be recommended.
I look forward to speaking with you soon!
