The best online English conversation tutors

Certified British English Teacher (CELTA) / 9+ Years’ University Teaching Experience Hi! I’m Matt, a certified English teacher from the UK with over 9 years’ experience teaching English at a university in Beijing, China. I’m passionate about helping all my students build confidence and fluency in English. My teaching style is friendly, patient and supportive. I want to encourage you to speak as much as possible because it’s important to experiment with the language, which is what leads to fluency. My students always say that I'm a good listener. With a background in the legal sector, I also understand well the language needs of professional environments. My focus is on free-form speaking, but I’m happy to tailor the lessons according to your needs, whether you want to use a structured textbook or simply talk freely about your interests or whatever is going on in your life. Students often have different requirements when it comes to error correction, so I’m happy to provide as much or as little as you like. I’ll also aim to gradually expand your vocabulary, as words are the building blocks of language. Please get in contact or book a lesson and we can discuss your goals and how you want to learn, or we can just have a conversation. I can help with any of the following, or please just let me know what your aims are: - Conversational English - Business and professional English (e.g. interviews; presentations) - Exam preparation (e.g. IELTS) - Pronunciation - Grammar and sentence structure - Reading, writing and thesis review I look forward to meeting you!

🌐 Trilingual Specialist | 13+ Years Experience | IT & Philology Background This section is to be deleted by April 29/ Scheduled for deletion on April 29.

I've been teaching English to young adults and children for more than 13 years. I'm familiar with latest methodology both from my valuable experience and my education, since I have my degrees in TEFL( teach English as a foreign language) and English translation. Since I'm an employed teacher in my country , I also have the chance to teach my mother tongue, so I've got a lot of experience of teaching Persian as well.

My students book an average of 21 lessons. The italki average is 6. I've taught business English for 10+ years. Previously, I was a corporate lawyer. I've lectured in business English at Chukyo University, trained executives at Toyota, Mitsubishi and the International Red Cross, and led the flagship school of Japan's largest language institute. I have also been trained in negotiation by the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) in London, one of the world's leading authorities in conflict resolution. My group classes average 4.6 students per session, the second highest of any teacher on the platform, in any language. Around 70% of my teaching is advanced business English. The rest is high-level debate and discussion on subjects such as society, culture and current affairs. All of my lessons are my own work and are based on my commercial and professional experience, along with my passion for philosophy and international relations. I take detailed notes, correct you in real time, and give you a personalised document after each class so you can review mistakes and absorb new vocabulary. I also conduct regular reviews to track your progress. If you're serious about operating at the top of your field in English, you'll find this challenging in exactly the right way. If you want something gentle and easy, I'm probably not your teacher.

College Professor and Professional Debater. Certified to Teach Languages. I enjoy conversation-based lessons, aka, I'm a certified yapper, but I also deeply value structure, grammar, and vocabulary building. I like to integrate both approaches by talking about interesting topics and, through practice, reviewing grammar and vocabulary in a more intentional way. That way, learning feels natural but still purposeful. That said, if you prefer a more structured and traditional class, I’m totally happy to do that too. Depending on your needs, we can work through exercises and readings from well-known institutional books.

AMERICAN Writing Tutor: CELTA Certified, Published in major US publications. Hello there! If you want to write like a native-English speaker, take my writing classes. I'm seeking self-motivated students - intermediate, advanced or proficient - who realize that writing English well is just as important as speaking English well. I've been writing for top American publications for years: Cosmopolitan, The Washington Post and The Boston Globe, among many others. So, when you have me as your teacher, you'll know that you're being taught by a real writer who makes a living from her writing in addition to teaching on italki. This is not a course on creative writing in English. The writing we practice here is for your English-speaking life. I'll help you write effective emails to employers, friends, teachers, among others. You'll also learn to write essays for English tests, such as the IELTS, TOEFL - and resumes and applications for jobs or school. By the way, I never use textbooks during lessons except when requested. Instead, I use "authentic material" like articles from newspapers and magazines, YouTube videos, photography and even objects you use in everyday life. So, please, get in touch! I look forward to writing with you soon.
