About Me

Hello, I'm Daniel and I'm from England. I have lived in four different countries and enjoy learning languages: I have studied almost 20, both independently and at university. I am currently a student at the University of York where I am studying for a MSc in Linguistics on a theoretical syntax pathway.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, spending time with my dogs, going on day trips, and watching Netflix.Me as a Teacher
My specialism is teaching adults and motivated teenagers aged 16+. Please note that I do not accept requests for lessons with children. Работаю с взрослыми и мотивированными подростками от 16+. Не беру детей!
I have worked as an English teacher for the last decade in Russia, France and the UK both independently and in private language schools and state schools. I have also held the position of Director of Studies for a private school. I hold a number of teaching certificates from Cambridge ESOL as well as a postgraduate diploma in Applied Linguistics.My lessons & teaching style
I use a principled methodology, meaning all that I do during lessons is informed by research into how people learn languages. I favour a lexical approach to my teaching as this allows students to build up confidence in speaking with automaticity and also makes what you say sound more natural.
During the first lesson, I will find out what your current level of English is, what goals you hope to achieve in English, and how we can work together to achieve those goals.My teaching material
