Hello! I’m Jake, a TEFL-certified native English teacher from the UK. I specialize in general English, teaching children, conversational fluency, academic English, and business communication, helping students from beginner to advanced levels. Living in Newcastle, I love connecting with learners worldwide—sharing cultures, languages, and even gaming or travel stories!
When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me practicing Spanish, cooking new recipes, or volunteering. My diverse hobbies fuel my dynamic lessons. Let’s make English engaging and tailored to your goals—book a trial and let’s chat!Ich als Lehrkraft
I used to teach in a local ESL school in Newcastle, teaching 1-to-1 classes, small groups and conversational classes. These included students from all backgrounds, countries, age groups and levels from beginner to advanced. Now, I tutor students privately online and hope that I will be tutoring you in the future too!
I enjoy teaching all parts of English such as vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, grammar, pronunciation and everything else. English is best learnt through a combination of these with more focus given to areas which need them, which is what we will be doing! Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
We will use different materials depending on you wish to learn. If you would like to focus primarily on speaking, then I have several conversation books with a range of topics which also incorporate relevant vocabulary. If you wish to take a more holistic approach, I generally use the latest English File books which include all aspects of English in a structured way. As a rule, in class we will do the speaking, reading and grammar activities together and the listening and writing tasks will be for homework. I also teach Academic, Business and English for children. A free copy of all these books is included with the class.Mein Unterrichtsmaterial

PhD ResearcherThe role of PhD Researcher meant that I conducted in-depth qualitative, sociological research.

Lessons with Jake are not overwhelming, and he never makes me feel awkward when he corrects my mistakes. He provides materials based on my English level and interests. I started to think in English more instead of translating in my head. Also, even though I'm not a pet person myself I always anticipate the new pet he's taking care of, they're adorable and can't wait to see my favorite which is golden retriever.

ake is a very cool, systematic teacher. Everything he does is clear and well-thought-out. At the same time, he is a super flexible and client-oriented tutor. He is always proactive and listens to feedback. Jake works with teenagers and actively participates in discussions about their day and vacation experiences. He is an inquisitive teacher, thereby developing children's speaking skills by asking them questions and sharing his own experiences through the children's interests. I highly recommend him as an English language teacher.

Excellent teacher. Jake is very patient and kind, and since day one. I have felt very comfortable speaking with him.
The classes are great; I really like that we have free conversation as I have noticed it's what has helped me the most to gain confidence. Also, we always learn new vocabulary with the material we review.
100% recommended.
