My name is Gabriel, and I'm a certified English Teacher from South America! I speak both Spanish and English at a native level. I've recently relocated to Tokyo and I'm on an adventure learning about your beautiful country and language. I majored in English and Linguistics, so I have a lot of knowledge about how language acquisition works in our brains! My previous jobs were at a bilingual school and online working with adults, preparing them for exams and teaching them English for future life challenges. In classes, we're going to use games, technology and talk about YOU a lot! Besides, I'm going to share with you very interesting practical tips for passive language acquisition ( for outside the classes). Looking forward to getting in touch with you! :)

Hi! I’m Adrien, a native French speaker with a passion for teaching English. Having grown up in France and the UK, I truly understand the challenges of learning a second language. In fact, I had to learn English myself, and that experience has made me even more empathetic and skilled at helping students who may find it difficult at times. I know what it feels like to face language barriers, and I’m here to help you break through them!

I graduated from the London School of Economics (LSE), where I studied law and economics, and through my academic journey, I developed a deep appreciation for the power of effective communication. Over the years, I’ve taught English to students of all levels, and I always make sure my lessons are engaging, personalized, and focused on your unique needs.

✨ What you’ll learn in my lessons:
✔️ Fun and easy grammar and vocabulary to help you communicate confidently.
✔️ Speaking practice to boost your confidence and hold real conversations.
✔️ Pronunciation to sound clearer and more natural when you speak.
✔️ Creative writing skills – from emails to short stories!
✔️ Listening and understanding what you hear in movies, songs, and conversations.
✔️ Fun activities to improve your reading and comprehension skills.

With 6 years of experience teaching English to students of all ages and levels, I’m passionate about making each lesson engaging and tailored to your needs!

Howdy! That's a Texan greeting. I really enjoy socializing with students and helping them become more effective and confident communicators in English. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

I believe in teaching mostly through discussing, reading, and writing about the things my students are interested in. I provide explanations and corrections first in English, and I only use Japanese translation or grammar explanations when necessary. My lesson fees listed here could change depending on location, time of day, type of lesson, your goals, homework, etc.
