About Me
italki teacher since Apr 21, 2022InterestsTravelBusiness & FinanceReadingFoodArt
Certified TEFL/TESOL tutor with 20+ years mentoring professionals globally—from corporate boardrooms to remote classrooms. My journey across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa (now calling Tanzania home!) fuels my passion for helping students *communicate confidently* in real-world English. Whether you’re preparing for IELTS, interviews, or medical OET exams, I blend relaxed, tailored lessons with cultural insights from my travels. Off-duty, you’ll find me cycling Arusha’s hills or cooking with local spices—always exploring how language connects us. Let’s make fluency *your* adventure!Me as a Teacher
I truly enjoy my role in teaching having mentored at an international corporate level for many decades it is great now to be able to focus one-to-one with students who are motivated to learn. I get great satisfaction when I see my students progress and start to really understand how the language works and are able to communicate effectively with it. My lessons & teaching style
TEFL accredited, I am relaxed and approachable and I like my sessions to reflect this. The focus of the classes will be tailored around student needs, starting with a needs assessment so that from the beginning of the student's time we can focus on those specific areas. I work well with students of intermediate level and aboveMy teaching material

I have very positive feelings after the trial lesson. I should mention that my English is at a very low level…

I highly recommend Graham as both a teacher and a proofreader. He helped me with proofreading and always explained his corrections clearly and thoughtfully. He is patient, professional, and attentive to his students’ needs. I’m very grateful for his guidance and support, and I will definitely continue working with him in the future.

I’ve been taking speaking lessons with Graham for a while, and his approach has truly helped me feel more confident and natural when speaking English. He always creates a friendly and encouraging atmosphere, gives constructive feedback, and adapts each lesson to my personal goals. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their English fluency and communication skills
