Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 10 Feb 2021Interest topicHistoryMuziekArt
I am a native English speaker with a London accent and a sense of humour. Some people say I sound like Michael Caine. I'm from London originally, but now I live with my family and two cats in Shrewsbury which is a small town in the West Midlands boasting lots of pubs, churches, historic buildings and an annual flower show. In my free time I like playing the piano, keeping fit, watching football and reading. I also do a bit of oil painting. Teaching is my passion and I love explaining how language worksIk als leerkracht
I've been a teacher of English for 25 years having taught in the Czech Republic and language schools in the UK. My students have included learners of General and Business English from all over the world. Many of these have been businessmen and women who I've helped to progress in their English, boosting their professional development. I have also prepared students for important IELTS, TOEFL and Cambridge Certificate exams, enabling them to do postgraduate courses or to improve their job prospects. I am CELTA and DELTA certified and also have the CERT TEB for teaching Business English. I have a degree in French and have taught French to teenagers and adults.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
Many of my students say they are frustrated and held back in their jobs because they lack the confidence or ability to use English for small talk, meetings, presentations or conference calls at work. I can help you to extend your range of language in these areas by equipping you with key business English vocabulary and phrases which will build your confidence and consequently your ability to communicate more competently. My lessons are communicative, personalised and tailored to your needs. We will address the areas of English that are important for your professional development and I will give you regular lesson-by-lesson feedback. I am thorough, kind and patient!Mijn lesmateriaal

The classes are well structured. I have learned a lot of vocabulary for informal situations as well as formal ones such as professional vocabulary at work. I have also received additional material. Additionally, Tony is very patient and provides feedback. Thank you very much.

I had a very effective learning experience with Tony, he is so patient! He always put the priority of my speaking, he won’t interrupt me with any grammar and pronunciation problems, but take notes about the problems and give me feedback at the end of the class! Anyway, it was a very valuable lesson package i have ever had!

I have been taking courses with Tony for several weeks, and i would like to share the pleasure i got with him. Tony is a perfect and really experienced teacher. He's very helpful and encouraging, very methodical and precise for vocabulary, grammar and accent. It's a pleasure to work with him, he's always in a good mood and humourous. I feel myself much more confident now and i warmly recommand him to you.
