READ MY STUDENTS' REVIEWS
I specialize in interview preparation; practicing for presentations, meetings and other professional purposes.
Achieve practical fluency tailored to your goals.
As a South African native English speaker with 25+ years in corporate training, I’ve coached other teachers, executives, pilots and travelers to speak naturally. My background in HR and senior management means I understand professional communication deeply - whether you’re preparing for a job interview or refining presentations.
Beyond teaching, I enjoy aviation, sports and creative hobbies like photography & LEGO.
I enjoy helping students unlock their potential through relaxed, personalized lessons.
Ik als leerkracht
Please read what my students have to say about my classes. I believe in reliable endorsements and value receiving constructive feedback.
My motivation - having helped dozens of students obtain jobs and promotions.
What is your motivation - building a better life for you and your family?
Although AI can compliment your learning, it can't engage with you the way I can, nor correct and guide you whilst having a deep and meaningful conversation together.
Can AI build your confidence like a good teacher can? This is what I provide - as it requires active listening, simultaneously providing accurate feedback.
My material suits each student's needs personally. I don't use generic material. Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
To reduce the almost-inevitable stress from learning, I try create a relaxed / fun environment, whilst keeping things professional, so regardless of whether we are merely chatting, or having a serious lesson, I am focused on my student enjoying the class and coming away from it with valuable learning having taken place.
I always provide lots of written feedback during and after the lesson, so students can refer to it at any time for their further benefit and self-improvement.

If I had to choose three traits of Patrick that describe him as a teacher, I would go with: diligence, creativity, and flexibility. Diligence, because he is always fully committed to clearly and thoroughly explaining every nuance of the language the student is struggling with. Creativity, because he is not only focused on correcting the student’s mistakes. Instead, he provides a lot of alternative vocabulary with relevant examples. Flexibility, because he is very open-minded and able to adapt to any topic, which is evident from pertinent and thought-provoking questions he often asks. All of the above makes me recommend Patrick to anyone looking for an excellent teacher/mentor.
Thank you, Patrick, for your hard work.

Patrick is not just a fantastic teacher, he's a fantastic person. Thank you SO much for helping me today, not just with my English, but also with my problems! Patrick spent almost 20 more minutes than the 30 I booked, and he didn't mind, so I really appreciate it. I'm just looking forward to speaking with you soon :D Honestly, many thanks.

It is a joy to speak to Patrick every week because he is my friend. In today’s class we covered wide-range of topics. I am so happy that I could tell Patrick about my father who passed away when I was just 13. Apart from our discussion, I really enjoy reading Patrick’s feedback. As far as English is concerned, there are so many areas I want to discuss with Patrick and am so looking forward to our future classes. Thanks again Patrick and take care always.
