About Me
italki teacher since Feb 8, 2021InterestsTechArtTravelHistoryMusic
Born in southwest England and now living in Barcelona, I’ve travelled to 100+ countries, bringing a global perspective to every lesson. As a TEFL-qualified teacher with 10 years’ experience, I specialise in helping students use English confidently in real-life situations - for travel, work, or daily life. Professionally I have a Bachelors in International Relations, and I’m also an avid photographer, football and rugby fan, and always eager to learn about your interests too!
I offer 3 lesson options. Conversational/General, Business English, and IELTS exam preparation. I'm extremely patient, our lessons will be fun, friendly, and enjoyable - THIS IS A PRIORITY OF MINE.
In terms of business, I have previously worked in management and have significant experience in meetings, presentations, and negotiations.
As for IELTS preparation, I have already assisted over 30 students to relocate to an English speaking country.
Patience is something that I prioritise in my lessons, you will never feel embarrassed with me. I encourage my students to feel as relaxed as possible, and try to build a good relationship between student and teacher.
I have a neutral British accent which is easily understandable, and speak extremely clearly while still staying natural.
I love to teach through conversation, I am the teacher but the lesson is based on you. The lessons will be planned, but I like to adapt the lesson as we go to suits your needs. As we are talking, I will write corrections and will...My teaching material

Joe is so great! He is open-minded, easy-going and possitive teacher and the lessons are a lot of fun and at the same time you can discuss anything. I appreciate the way he provides feedback and he can definitely make friendly, safe and motivating atmosphere. :)
