NEW YEAR'S DEAL - Don't miss the discounts of 15% on packages!
Hello everyone! I’m Thomas, a native English speaker and undergraduate student of modern languages. I grew up in the East Midlands, near Nottingham, and speak with a minimal accent. I love learning new languages in my spare time and am fascinated by the culture and history of other countries.
Ich als Lehrkraft
Language learning is my passion so I’m very enthusiastic to share its joys with you! I cannot overstate the significance language learning has had in my life – it truly is a gateway to another world. Cultural exchange is therefore very important to me, so I can’t wait to discuss your interests and views with you. Whatever your goals or level of language proficiency, my aim is to give you the skills and confidence to use your English to the absolute best of your ability.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
In my lessons, I create a relaxed and supportive environment for you to express yourself fully without fear of judgement. I tend not to correct grammatical or lexical mistakes right away so as not to disrupt the flow of the conversation, but rather I will provide notes which can be referred back to after the lesson and may draw attention to areas that need a bit of work. As well as free-flowing conversation, I work with a variety of materials such as text, audio-visual and grammar drills to keep the lessons engaging. Most importantly, however, my lessons are tailored to your preferences and needs, which I will always take into consideration and incorporate into the exercises we do.
Thomas is really very friendly and helpful. After a casual, hilarious talk about cultural events, I got assistance in preparing for an important event I'm attending soon. Thomas fully engaged with my topic, which allowed me to gain more confidence in speaking about the topic. With the understanding and alternative expressions offered, I feel more confident about the event.

Thomas is very considerate to helps me prepare for my interview. He impressed me by not only correcting my grammar and pronunciation errors but also helping better structure the question, such as linking to the questions, expressing more details, or giving examples. The atmosphere of the lesson is also very relaxed and pleasant. All in all, I highly recommend him!

I always enjoy our lessons. Thomas is very tolerant and easy to talk. He encourages me and I feel very confident talking to him even if I make some mistakes. I like that we choose topics that we both care. This makes our discussions very intense so I always need to remember all my vocabulary to express myself clear :)

Flexible and friendly as always. Thomas gives a lot of speaking opportunities and asks interesting questions. This is a good exercise. Makes you feel almost like a celebrity interview.
