About Me
italki teacher since Dec 7, 2010InterestsReadingHistoryTravel
I’m from rainy England! I'm a TEFL-certified teacher with over 16 years of experience. My teaching style is relaxed but focused. In my general English lessons (called “British English”) there will always be a specific topic, and I will correct ALL of your mistakes and give quick and simple explanations when necessary. I will also try to suggest new and more native ways to express things so you can express yourself fully and sound more natural. My test and interview preparation lessons are more structured, and I have a great deal of experience teaching IELTS preparation.
My main strengths are my patience, my interest in language, and my love of teaching. I hope to speak to you soon!My teaching material

I took Tom’s lesson first time in four years ! Previously he helped me cabin crew interview in English.
In this time he helped me final interview of internal mobility. His interview lesson is the best. He gave me always helpful tips and correct my mistakes. Thank you Tom !!!!

Tom is a pro! Although I've had lessons with a couple of other teachers, his lessons have been the most valuable in terms of feedback. Tom is very attentive to details, calm and focused. It's been a pleasure to prepare for both an interview and an IELTS test with him
