Former Lawyer, Now Qualified Teacher: English all levels & Business English, Job Interviews As a former lawyer, with a BA degree in English from Exeter University, Educated at the prestigious Harrow School, I love teaching English to my many clients who work in Finance, the Law, Industry and Tech (employees from Google, Software houses, Venture Capital ). My class preparing my clients for job interviews is popular and successful. A lot of my clients have had success in interviews after working with me and I will give you proven strategies to prepare you and boost your confidence. I teach clients how to "sell" their skills to employers. Please check out my reviews. We will practice conversation in real time and I will give you correction as we go along. Rather than complex rules of grammar, I will show you with real examples the correct use of English, and you will progress faster than you imagined. Alongside work that I do for interviews, is the work of CV Curriculum Vitae and Resume drafting. I will ensure that you do list your key skills and show you how to improve the layout. I will tailor specific tasks to help you in your business sector. For a student in real estate, we went to real estate websites to read and understand the articles there. One of my students was making a pitch to investors to raise funding for his business expansion and we looked at Investment vocabulary and then did a role play exercise where I was the investor, so that he made his pitch to me. I really look forward to helping you and I am confident I can help you move forward.

Serveral Years of Teaching Experience; TEFL Certified; British Native Speaker Both of my grandfathers were teachers, so I've learned a great deal from their experiences and knowledge, which has inspired me to pursue a similar path. I have always loved teaching, but I initially took a different direction by becoming a personal trainer, teaching fitness and proper workout techniques. As I've matured, I've shifted my focus to mastering English teaching, drawing on the lessons from my family about the life of a teacher.

CELTA-Certified British English Teacher for Adults| 7 Years' Experience | Build Confidence & Fluency Hello! I’m Alev. I’m from London, England. I’m British and also have a Turkish Cypriot background, so my native languages are English and Turkish. I’m a CELTA-certified online English teacher and I also hold a BA degree in French. I’ve been teaching English online for about seven years to students from many different countries. I specialize in teaching adults at beginner and intermediate levels. I help beginners build a strong foundation and gain confidence in speaking, and I support intermediate students who want to improve their fluency and communicate more naturally. Having learned French as a second language myself, I understand the challenges of learning another language and the importance of feeling comfortable and confident when speaking. My lessons focus on practical communication and structured practice. I gently correct mistakes during conversations and make notes so we can review them. I help students improve their grammar, vocabulary, word choice and pronunciation through conversation, articles and structured activities. I also create my own PowerPoint materials with vocabulary, grammar exercises, speaking activities and role-plays. My lessons are supportive and adapted to your level, needs and goals. I look forward to helping you start or improve your English!

    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

    앤 선생님은 학생이 편하게 대화할 수 있게 분위기를 만들어주시고, 개선점이나 새로운 내용을 전달할 때는 아주 명확하고 깔끔하게 내용을 설명해주셔서 이해하기 쉬워요. 수업이 끝나면 피드백 내용을 파일로 만들어서 따로 전달해주시는데, 그동안 무의식적으로 하던 습관들을 개선시키는 방안이나 구조적으로 깔끔한 영어를 말할 수 있는 표현들도 많이 알려주셔서 복습하고 혼자 연습하는데 도움이 돼요. 경험이 많으셔서 제가 고민을 말하면 교육적으로 검증된 명확한 해답도 안내해주십니다. 수업이 끝나고 나면 알찬 수업이었다는 생각이 들어요! 좋은 스피킹 선생님을 찾으신다면 추천합니다:)

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.

Games are full of cartoon characters my son likes and this makes lessons more attracitive to him. In today's lesson, he was very excited to see one of his favourite characters - Luigi Ghost Busters during the exercises. Teacher Jazz is friendly, nice and patient, mildly encouraging him to speak English. I highly recommend her as a teacher.

    Aysha has been teaching my two children, particularly my daughter Michalina, for the past three years, and I couldn't be happier with her dedication and professionalism. She is an exceptional teacher – patient, warm-hearted, empathetic, and genuinely committed to her students' progress and success. One of her greatest achievements was successfully preparing my daughter for the national English exam at the end of primary school, where Michalina achieved an outstanding 98% score! This result speaks volumes about Aysha's teaching skills and ability to motivate and support her students. What I appreciate most, however, is the wonderful relationship she has built with my children. They both genuinely enjoy their lessons with her, which, as a parent, means just as much to me as their academic achievements. After three years of working together, I can wholeheartedly recommend Aysha to any parent looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and truly caring English teacher. Thank you, Aysha!
