Hi! I’m Alex—a former chef who fell in love with languages and built a new life in Ireland. I know what it’s like to start from scratch—I've taught myself Japanese and bring that same empathy and excitement into every lesson. I'm friendly, patient, and committed to helping you grow. Whether you're here for work, travel, or confidence, I’ll make learning feel personal and meaningful.
Изучение языков полностью изменило мою жизнь - теперь я помогаю своим студентам исполнить их мечты.
日本語も話せますので、安心してください。
Let’s turn English into a tool you love using.
Me as a Teacher
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all teaching. My goal is to adapt to you—your pace, interests, and needs. Whether you're a total beginner or an advanced speaker polishing your skills, you’ll find my classes relaxed, motivating, and always student-centered. My background in the service industry taught me to be attentive, and my journey into languages helps me guide others with care.
Независимо от того, в какой индустрии вы работаете, будь то IT, сфера обслуживания клиентов или же медицина, я всегда смогу найти наиболее эффективный подход.
日本人の方も安心して学べますよ。一緒に英語を楽しみましょう！
Let's grow your English with good vibes and real progress.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons mix structure with spontaneity. We’ll use real-life materials, ask big questions, and always keep it conversational. I’ll challenge you gently—with creative tasks, tailored practice, and space to express yourself. You’ll talk about what you care about, from work life to travel dreams. I also offer feedback and fun homework to keep things moving.
Мои уроки проходят в позитивной атмосфере и позволят вам открыться и раскрыть свой истинный потенциал.
