American English for Software, IT and Tech Professionals | Communicate Confidently in Tech Teams I help software developers, IT professionals, cybersecurity specialists, technical-support professionals, and other technology professionals communicate clearly and confidently in English. I've taught over 8,700 one-to-one lessons to adults worldwide, helping them succeed in interviews, meetings, presentations, client conversations, and international workplaces. Unlike most English tutors, I have hands-on experience with Linux, Docker, APIs, AI automation, cloud infrastructure, networking, cybersecurity, and self-hosted applications. You can discuss your work without simplifying technical concepts. We can practice explaining projects, participating in meetings, preparing for interviews, presenting software or infrastructure, communicating with clients, improving workplace vocabulary, writing clearer emails and Slack messages, and sounding more natural. Lessons are practical and personalized, using realistic conversations, role-plays, interview practice, and project discussions based on your goals. I'll help you improve clarity, vocabulary, organization, and fluency with focused feedback. I'm a native English speaker from the United States and fluent in Brazilian Portuguese. Portuguese speakers are welcome, but lessons are conducted primarily in English. For intermediate and advanced adults only. I do not teach children. Book a lesson if you want to communicate more confidently about technology and your work.

I’ve really enjoyed my lessons with Travis! As a QA Engineer who moved to the United States, improving my technical English has been one of my biggest goals, and Travis has helped me tremendously. What makes him different is his strong technical background. We can have real conversations about software development, APIs, automation, AI, and other IT topics without me having to simplify everything. He understands the terminology and asks thoughtful questions, which has helped me become much more confident discussing technical topics in English. Our lessons are practical, engaging, and directly relevant to my work and interview preparation. If you’re an IT professional looking to improve your technical communication skills in English, I highly recommend learning with Travis.

Travis is an amazing teacher! I've been taking classes with him for almost a year, and I feel more confident with my conversational skills every session. Travis is an easy-going teacher. You can talk about different topics with him without feeling fear or shame. It almost feels like you're talking with a friend, but he always gives you feedback and tips. Highly recommend.

Travis is a fantastic tutor. He’s super friendly and really passionate about languages, which makes learning with him a lot of fun. He’s always full of great advice on how to improve, and I really appreciate the way he gives me practical suggestions that I can use right away. What I like most is that it never feels like just a lesson — it feels more like chatting with an old friend who knows a lot about language learning. It’s always easy to talk to him, and his energy makes the lessons enjoyable every time. If you're looking for someone who knows their stuff and makes learning feel natural, Travis is definitely the person to go for.

Professor é muito carismático e isso facilita a inibição inicial que temos em conversação. Me auxiliou com indicação de métodos e profissionais de referência. Muito bom!!! Indico!
