About Me
italki teacher since Jul 10, 2025InterestsTechReadingEnvironment & NatureTravelBusiness & Finance
I'm Dylan, a Business English specialist with firsthand experience in hyper-growth tech companies, including Flexport, Stripe, and Remote.com.
Based in Berlin, I help professionals communicate with confidence in fast-paced, high-stakes environments - whether that's meetings, negotiations, or international networking.
Having lived and worked across Europe and the Americas, I design lessons that go beyond grammar, helping clients navigate cultural nuance and real-world business communication. I work with professionals from startups to corporate environments, all focused on sounding natural, clear, and credible - not textbook-perfect.Me as a Teacher
I specialise in Business English for professionals - helping people communicate with clarity and confidence in real workplace situations. With five years of teaching experience across Europe and Latin America, I've worked with learners from a wide range of backgrounds, industries and levels, and I know how to adapt quickly to what each student actually needs.
My lessons are relaxed, practical and student-centred, with a focus on real-life English you can use immediately - in meetings, negotiations, emails, and everyday professional interactions. No textbook exercises, no grammar drills for their own sake. Just natural, confident communication. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are conversation-led and fully personalised - built around your specific goals, industry, and the real situations you face at work. I prepare relevant materials and homework for each session, then use class time to discuss, refine, and apply what you've learned, focusing on vocabulary, pronunciation, and natural expression.
I create a relaxed, low-pressure environment where mistakes are part of the process - because that's how real fluency develops. Students describe me as patient, articulate, and engaging.
I work primarily with intermediate to advanced professionals, though I also support beginners and can help with IELTS and exam preparation.My teaching material
