Make Progress with Personalized Feedback | Help with Grammar & Verb Tenses | 20 years' experience Hi everyone! I’m Tom — an EFL teacher with qualifications from Trinity College London and the University of Warwick. I have 20 years' experience helping adults, teens, and kids become more confident using English to communicate. I have a neutral, easy-to-understand British accent. My students have improved their confidence for work, travel, relocation, life in the UK, and passing exams such as IELTS, FCE, CAE and more. In my lessons, you don't need to worry about making mistakes; instead, I'll help you learn from them! I listen carefully and take note of patterns to help you overcome your weaknesses and speak more naturally. I share this feedback with you during and after the class. I use a document with pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary support. If you would like, I can share an example of a document with some feedback. Feel free to send me a message about this. I’m learning Spanish on italki and here in Central America, so I know some of the challenges and how we can overcome them. 🗣️ My classes > Focus on real speaking > Relaxed, supportive environment > Live corrections & feedback 🎯 My teaching > Patient, calm, & encouraging > Clear explanations, especially for grammar and verb tenses > Interactive lessons designed around your needs 🎓 Experience > Certified teacher with a university degree > Taught in UK colleges (2006–2017) > Teaching online since 2017

I just want to say thank you for your English classes. I really like the way you teach because your classes are very dynamic and give us many opportunities to speak and practice English. For me, speaking is one of the most difficult parts of learning English, but your activities help me feel more comfortable and confident when I speak.

I highly recommend my English teacher. His classes are excellent, dynamic, and very practical. He always uses different activities that help us speak more confidently, improve our vocabulary, and work on our pronunciation. I really enjoy his classes because they are interactive and make learning English easier and more enjoyable. He is a great teacher, and I definitely recommend his classes!

Some people recommend to learn English with strictly system using the grammar books and doing various exercises with teacher on lessons. But for me, it isn't good way. I believe I need to have a match with teacher who can help me speak as much as it possible, who can guess what I want to say, who is a supportive person and can hear my "English proplems" and help me to figure it out. And I obviously do planty of grammar execercises by myself, but I think I couldn't learn English so long if I don't find Tom. I tried lots of teachers before but it wasn't interested to me. I'm really thankful Tom, how he repeats my mistakes to me very carefully again and again that I learn it in the end. And I'm very grateful for his support when I feel bad in English. If you're still doubting take a lesson or not, JUST TRY.
