Hi, I’m Matthew, a friendly English teacher from northern England with 14 years of experience helping learners speak naturally, confidently, and clearly. I specialise in guiding intermediate and advanced students who want to sound more fluent, more expressive, and more like themselves in English.
I love meaningful conversation, exploring ideas, and helping students break through the barriers that hold them back. Outside the classroom, you’ll find me cooking, hiking in nature, or discovering new music, always curious, always learning.
If you want lessons that feel relaxed, motivating, and genuinely useful, you’ll feel at home here.
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
I help learners who already know English but want to use it better.
My teaching focuses on:
- Fluency — speaking more smoothly and naturally
- Pronunciation & intonation — especially clear, modern British English
- Confidence — reducing hesitation and finding your voice
- Vocabulary expansion — through real, engaging topics
- Professional communication — clearer emails, meetings, and presentations
I’m patient, supportive, and structured. You’ll never feel rushed or judged. My role is to help you speak more freely, understand your patterns, and make steady, noticeable progress.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My classes can help you to gain more speaking confidence with regular interaction. Furthermore, my lessons are practical, enjoyable, and built around real communication. You’ll speak a lot, receive clear feedback, and learn how to express yourself more naturally.
What you can expect:
- Targeted speaking practice to build confidence
- Pronunciation and intonation coaching
- Vocabulary development through meaningful topics
- Error correction that actually sticks
- Professional, friendly, motivating atmosphere
I adapt each lesson to your goals, everyday life, work, travel, or personal growth. Every class is structured, supportive, and designed to help you use the English you already know with
I came to the lesson with a very specific goal related to exam preparation and prononciation in General British, so the focus of the lesson was already quite targeted from the beginning (probably a little different from a typical first lesson). I really appreciated how flexible and responsive he was to my needs. Even within that relatively short time, I already felt that I gained valuable insights, especially regarding to my intonation. His detailed feedback helped me become more aware of areas I need to work on. All in all, I‘m very grateful for his support and would definitely recommend him!

Matthew is a very professional teacher who uses a wide range of useful materials during his lessons. I took a British pronunciation course with him, and I feel much more confident in my English now. I would definitely like to continue learning with him. I highly recommend him as an excellent British English teacher.
