Hello! My name is Berwyn and I am a TEFL certified teacher (120 hour TEFL course, completed in 2020) who is fluent in English and Welsh. I am excited to help you improve your language skills! I grew up in North Wales (It's beautiful) and currently live in Birmingham, in the West Midlands of England (It's OK!) I am a trained actor with a degree in Acting! My main hobbies include football, film and music. I absolutely love Star Wars! I also have a big interest in Radio and have been a Radio Presenter in Wales and am currently working on a new exciting Podcast Series!
Me as a Teacher
I completed a 120 hour TEFL course in 2020. I have also taught children from the ages of five to eighteen in Acting and English speech. I love this work as it is incredibly rewarding and allows me to help young minds develop! I ran a youth club for High School Children for a year and I love using this to help make people's day a little bit brighter! Also, I have tutored teenagers for their English GCSE exams and I am currently running a Performing Arts Club at my Church! My teaching experience has allowed me to understand the best techniques and styles. I am so grateful to my time spent as a teacher as it has given me experience and knowledge that has continued to help me.
My lessons & teaching style
I believe people are learning the most when they're having fun. I want my lessons to be easy, casual and a place where you can make mistakes and feel no pressure to get things right straight away. I would love to use skills as an actor to help you act out any scenario, like going to the shops, a job interview or ordering a meal at a restaurant! I have experience with being a radio presenter so I love talking to people, and I love having interesting conversations with people, because then, you don't feel like you're even learning! Come and have a lesson with me and you will learn a language the fun way!
Berwyn is an amazing teacher, he is so detail oriented and helpful with his feedback and thereby has help me improve my British English skills a lot! His feedback is always on point and each and every lesson is 100% tailored to my needs and requirements. On top of that he's a genuinely great lad, with a great sense of humour and it is always fun to talk with him. I haven't seen him in a bad mood or impatient ever! For me, he's the best male teacher on italki! I couldn't recommend him more (except if you are specifically looking for a teacher with an American accent)!

One of my favorite things in the world is taking lessons with Berwyn. I look forward to them even when I schedule them at silly hours for me like 3am or 4am or 11pm since I am across the world from him. The lessons are always enjoyable, very chill/no pressure, highly personalized, and paced in ways that make learning enjoyable and interesting.

One of the most important thing when you are looking for a teacher on italki is to have good chemistry. It's not about their knowledge or about the certificates they have. I feel that my english knowledge increases every time I attend a new lesson with Berwyn. I strongly recommend him.
