Very experienced English tutor and Business English tutor. I am a native English speaker and I have been teaching English for over ten years now. I am an Australian, originally from Melbourne.
I have an MBA, as well as a Bachelor of Architecture and have worked in English speaking corporations in Australia for over 25 years. I am very experienced in Business English, business etiquette and the cultural English we use every day.
I am currently living in Spain - I have been here for over seven years. Prior to this a was living for two years in Beijing, China, and tutored in English there full time as well. Before this I was tutoring students in English from Australia.Me as a Teacher
I have 4 lesson types:
1: Business English: I teach business terminology, practice & cultural English for students to work & be promoted in business.
2: General English: I work with you to choose the topics you want in order to improve your English.
3. Job Interview training: I use my experience hiring to train you to succeed in your interview.
3: English Exam Coaching: I teach students who are wanting to pass English exams. I have qualifications in both the IELTS and TOEFL systems and teach both.
I also give feedback towards the end of every lesson so that the student understands where they are at on their journey to learning English and can set tailored homework.My lessons & teaching style
I teach students of all different abilities from all over the world. I believe that individual tutoring means that you will have an individually tailored program. We will work towards this with exercises and conversation, all the time having fun but achieving.
I am also a professional Architect with MBA. Therefore expert at analysis of issues to be solved and with a strong solutions focus.My teaching material
