About Me
italki teacher since Apr 21, 2022InterestsTravelBusiness & FinanceReadingFoodArt
Certified TESOL/TEFL tutor with 20+ years guiding professionals and medical staff to exam and interview success. My global experience—from Asia to the Middle East and Tanzania—means I understand the challenges of communicating across cultures. I specialize in helping students with IELTS, executives prepare for interviews and healthcare workers speak confidently in real-world situations, blending corporate precision with travel-inspired insights. If you want practical English skills for work, exams, or interviews, I can help. Outside teaching, I love travel, finance, art, and food—bringing fresh perspectives to every session.
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.
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

Graham is a great and supportive teacher. I recommend him to anyone who's preparing for the IELTS exam. With his guidance, I’ve seen remarkable progress in my speaking. Now I'm more comfortable and confident in speaking.

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.
