English as a second language for teenagers and adults

From 46 C$ /h

I have been teaching at school and through Skype since 2006. More than 3000 of my students successfully passed exams, found new job in foreign countries, were promoted due to a new language skill acquired. I have taught students all over the world - Georgia to New Zealand, the Maldives to Russia.
I have always striven hard to keep my classes as interesting thus effective as possible.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone,
My name is Phillip. I am an experienced, native bilingual (USA/Switzerland) English teacher. Today, I am pleased to guide you in your learning from my office located in the wild and inspiring setting of western Ireland.

With many years of experience as a private tutor, I work with students from all backgrounds. However, over time, I have developed an approach that is particularly appreciated by seniors and retirees. Why? Because I am convinced that learning a language at this stage of life should first and foremost be a shared pleasure, a window onto the world, and a wonderful way to keep the mind sharp and curious.
My approach: Trust and kindness above all

Many of us have somewhat rigid memories of school learning. With me, forget the stress of mistakes or tedious grammar. My primary goal is to restore your confidence. We progress at your pace, with a gentle, patient, and personalized teaching approach. Whether you're starting from scratch or simply want to refresh your old school memories, I adapt completely to your needs.

What we can explore together:
- Travel English: So that your next trip abroad is synonymous with serenity (getting around, ordering in restaurants, communicating with locals without apprehension).

-Maintaining family ties: Ideal if you have bilingual grandchildren or grandchildren living abroad and you want to share more with them.

-Conversation & Culture: Discuss current events, literature, history or life in Ireland, while enjoying my clear and easy-to-understand native accent.

-Brain gymnastics: Using English as a fun and stimulating tool to maintain memory and cognitive plasticity.

Why choose me?
As a dual American and Swiss national living in Ireland, I bring a unique cultural richness to your life. I have a mastery of all the nuances of the English language, but I also have a perfect understanding of French culture and structure.

Practical and technological aspects:

We'll work together via Zoom or Google Meet, very simple and reliable tools. If you're worried about the technology, don't be: I'll guide you step by step during our first session so you feel completely comfortable on screen. It's much simpler than it seems!

Join me for a friendly and engaging experience, blending Swiss rigor, American optimism, and the legendary warmth of Ireland. Let's transform your English practice into a truly enriching human adventure.
Nice to meet you,

Phillip

I believe one of the best ways to improve your English is to actually use it. My lessons focus on conversation and helping you feel more confident when speaking English in real-life situations.

I work with ESL learners, school students, and adults, adapting lessons to each student's level and goals. We can talk about everyday life, hobbies, school, work, or any topics that interest you.

As we talk, I help you build your vocabulary, improve your grammar, pronunciation, and sentence structure naturally. Instead of spending the whole lesson memorizing rules, you'll have plenty of opportunities to speak, make mistakes, and learn from them in a comfortable environment.

Whether you want to become more confident speaking English, improve your school performance, or simply practice your conversational skills, we can work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Hi! I am a 17-year-old student from Spain and I would like to become a teacher later. I enjoy working with children and helping them with school.

I provide online help with **reading comprehension**, for example using texts and exercises from Nieuwsbegrip. We can read texts together, discuss difficult words, answer questions, and practice understanding the most important information.

The lessons are calm and tailored to the level and age of each child. My goal is to give children more self-confidence with reading comprehension and schoolwork. 😊
