My name is David. I am a native English speaker from Cornwall in the South West of England. I also lived in Swindon for three years. I moved to Brazil in 2018 and lived there for five years and now I have returned to my country.
In the UK, I worked in a traditional gentleman's outfitters that sold suits and clothes, volunteered one day a week assisting adults with learning and mental difficulties on a farm and taught English online.
I am mature and friendly with a good sense of humour. I am a very creative person, good at coming up with ideas and solving problems. My hobbies include photography, martial arts, yoga and history.
Ik als leerkracht
I have completed a 130 hour TEFL course. This course has given me the skills and knowledge to help students with their English by using different techniques, exercises and teaching materials. I also hold a teaching business English certificate.
I have communicated with a plethora of people from around the world who have spoken a variety of languages and of different ages. I also hold an Enhanced Criminal Record Certificate, which allows me to work with vulnerable children and adults.
I am currently learning Brazilian Portuguese, so if you are a Portuguese speaker and if you have some difficulties expressing yourself in English - I may be able to help you!
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are relaxed and casual. We can discuss a variety of subjects and I can assist you while we speak. I can help you with different parts of the English language, such as spoken English or conversational practice, writing, listening, learning new vocabulary, improving your grammar and correcting and perfecting your pronunciation. We can also focus on different aspects within the English language, such as tenses, phrasal verbs, idioms, formal and business English, intonation and stress.
I have helped students prepare for a variety of tests and exams at different levels. If there are other areas and subjects you would like to study, let me know. 😀
I hope to hear from you soon!

David always helps me taking vocabularies out from my head and gives me various words describing similar situations or facts. I do enjoy learning English from him. He is one of the best ITALKI teachers, I believe.

Perfect for me, time flew talking to him, he corrected me, guided me, taught me new words according to what I wanted to say and even guessed what I wanted to say in moments that I get stuck. Thank you very much for your patience and sympathy David. You deserve 5 of 5 stars.

He's an empathic and talkative guy with a perfect pronunciation, a patient teacher who can make you feel comfortable and speak with you about anything. Do not hesitate and book a class with him, you will not regret!
PS: Thank you David for being the first iTalki experience of my mom, she's very grateful!
