British teacher - IELTS preparation, lessons for children/adults, proofreading and editing service. FOR PROOFREADING SERVICES, PLEASE MESSAGE ME DIRECTLY Originally from the UK, I am now living in the beautiful city of Vienna. I work as contracted English lecturer at the University of Applied Sciences in Austria, a tutor for BA English education students at the University of Vienna, and work as a writer for an online news publisher. I have taught students from all around the world, from beginner to academic level, and have a large amount of experience in helping people prepare for the major English examinations. I am trained and certified in teaching IELTS preparation, and can help you prepare for Cambridge and TOEFL. I believe that a good portion of any lesson should feature speaking practice and so I aim to create a relaxed atmosphere in which you feel you can make mistakes (because we all make them!) I have been teaching for 15 years and take a balanced approach to my lessons. It's important to hone the skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening but, of course, you'll be better at some than others, so lessons can be adjusted accordingly. My teaching style leaves much of what we focus on to you. I have taught conversational practice, interview preparation, academic English, English for social media, CAE, TOEFL, IELTS preparation/mock tests and academic English to postgraduate level. I don't assign homework tasks unless it is specifically requested by you or the parent - some people simply don't want/need it!

I am extremely grateful to David for his professional help with a number of texts that he helped proofread and improve. After this session, they sound much better and a lot more natural. Highly recommend.

I booked a lesson with David to prepare for a job interview. His listening skills have been very valuable when it came to pointing out the moments in which my speech could lose its structure and he helped me come up with solutions to keep everything nice and clean and, as a result, more impactful. The session has been very efficient and I am grateful. Thank you!

Another great lesson with David! I would be happy to recommend David's classes to anyone. He is really easy to talk to, a good listener, friendly and professional. David puts you at ease right away, so learning the language doesn't feel like an effort. Being a professional teacher, he also has all the relevant techiniques in his arsenal, and you definitely feel he knows what he is doing at all times. Thank you David!

Many thanks to David for proofreading my creative text for a book! Super quick, all corrections and feedback were on point. It was a pleasure to discuss linguistics details and hobbies we've got in common. If I ever had another text to edit I'd definitely come back!

It was a great trial lesson with David. We covered my learning goals and what we can do in future lessons. Mostly importantly, he is friendly and supportive, and has a lovely British accent.
