Hello there!
My name is David, and I'm a native British English speaker and experienced, professional English teacher from London, England. I'm also an Advanced Personal Trainer and Yoga teacher, who has trained athletes and laypeople for 13 years.
My main hobby is travelling, and I spent two years living in Japan with my girlfriend. I also love sports – in particular scuba diving, kickboxing and ultra marathon running – health, fitness, philosophy, photography, playing music, cooking and Yoga. In addition, I'm currently learning Japanese, so I know what it's like to be a language learner as well as a language teacher!
I enjoy speaking with, and teaching, people from all over the world :)Ik als leerkracht
I'm a friendly and easy going teacher, and my lessons are relaxed and informal, yet highly beneficial and effective!
I teach authentic British English, in the way that it is really used in the UK. That is not to say that I don't use textbooks and exercise sheets! I do think that these are useful, but my emphasis will always be on enabling you to speak native-sounding British English. I have a whole database of sheets, exercises and articles, so don't worry! I have you covered :-)
Your improvement is my number one priority, and I refer to my notes after lessons in order to structure and design the best plan for you in the future, as well as sending you FULL notes and corrections afterwards.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are 100% flexible and tailored to the individual.
I have worked with thousands of students across the world, both online and in person. It is through these valuable experiences I have learned that we are all different, and should be treated as such. With regards to teaching, this means finding a style that works best for you.
For more advanced students who are going to be living in English-speaking countries, this may be primarily through conversation practice and active role play scenarios, whereas for less experienced students I may use sheets to teach basic grammar, or perhaps pronunciation exercises and article reading sessions.
No two lessons will be the same! :-)Mijn lesmateriaal

It was one of the best lessons that I've ever taken. It will take a long time to reach fairly advanced and proficiency level. But it's worth it to try! I look forward to taking another his lesson very soon. Thank you, David.
