Hello! I’m Tim, a CELTA-qualified native English teacher from the UK. I specialise in helping adult learners become more confident, accurate, and natural in English — whether you’re a beginner or already advanced. As a serious learner of Spanish myself, I understand what it feels like to get stuck: knowing what you want to say, but not being able to express it clearly or naturally. That’s where I can help. My lessons are focused, practical, and fully tailored to you. I quickly identify the main patterns that are holding you back and help you improve them step by step, especially: grammar mistakes that keep reappearing vocabulary gaps and unnatural phrasing pronunciation, stress, and intonation You’ll speak a lot in my lessons, but always with clear purpose. While you speak, I listen closely and give precise feedback so your English becomes not just more fluent, but more natural and accurate. I can help you: expand your vocabulary and sound more natural improve your pronunciation and clarity prepare for IELTS, Cambridge First (FCE), and Cambridge Advanced (CAE) I’m patient and supportive, but also direct and focused on progress. If you want structured lessons, clear feedback, and steady improvement, we’ll work well together.
