Hi everyone! I’m Robbie.
I’m an English teacher from the UK with a CELTA qualification and PhD researcher at Newcastle University, focusing on education, language, and cross-cultural learning.
I’ve taught English in China (你好我的中国朋友!), India, and the UK, both in classrooms and online, and I now teach students from all over the world. This international experience helps me adapt lessons to different learning styles and cultural backgrounds.
My lessons are friendly, relaxed, and practical, with a focus on confidence, fluency, and real communication.
Outside teaching, I’m usually cycling or playing guitar 🚴♂️🎸

As a CELTA-qualified teacher and PhD researcher in language and education, I combine professional training with research-informed teaching methods and international classroom experience.
I have worked with learners of all ages, from young children to postgraduate students, and I have experience supervising MA-level dissertations and supporting academic writing, structure, and argumentation.
In my lessons, I focus on clear communication, confidence-building, and developing accurate, natural English. I provide detailed feedback, practical strategies, and structured support to help students make steady, measurable progress. Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My lessons are personalised to your academic and communication goals. I support university students, postgraduates, and professionals with academic writing, essays, dissertations, and research papers, as well as speaking for seminars, presentations, and interviews.
I also work with younger learners, focusing on phonics, pronunciation, reading, and building strong foundations in speaking and listening.
Lessons may include structured writing support, feedback on your own texts, paragraph and argument development, academic style and register, and targeted grammar and vocabulary. My teaching style is supportive, clear, and well-structured, with a strong focus on precision and confidence.Mein Unterrichtsmaterial

We've studied English with Robbie for several years already. He's always student orientated, always fun. And when you're learning on a regular basis the results will not be long in coming.

My son (9 years old) loves Robbie‘s classes! The classes are very well structured and I am happy to see, that my son has no difficulty talking to a native speaker for 30 minutes and seems to understand everything Robbie teaches him! Thank you very much!
