About Me

I’m a patient and supportive teacher who enjoys creating a comfortable environment where students feel confident speaking and expressing themselves.

I like bringing my students’ interests into the lessons and making classes feel natural, engaging, and personalized. I believe grammar is an important part of language learning, but it becomes much more meaningful when students can actively use the language to communicate, share ideas, and express themselves.

I want my students to build good memories throughout their learning journey, learning through conversation, enjoyable classes, and meaningful contact with new cultures and perspectives.

Education

I hold undergraduate degrees in Portuguese, Spanish, and Latin Languages and Literature.

I also have a Master’s degree in Linguistics and Portuguese Language, with a focus on language teaching and learning, and I am currently finishing my PhD in the same field, with research focused on phonetics and pronunciation.

Experience / Qualifications

I work mainly with Portuguese and Spanish language teaching, and I also have experience teaching students from different linguistic backgrounds, including English- and Mandarin-speaking learners.

I have taught students from beginner to advanced levels, both in private lessons and academic contexts. I also have university teaching experience, including classes at Universidad de Manizales (Colombia) and Universidade Estadual Paulista (Brazil).

Besides general language courses, I teach academic Portuguese and academic Spanish, as well as preparation courses for official proficiency exams (CELPE-Bras, DELE, SIELE).

I have also worked with the development of Portuguese teaching materials and have a published Portuguese textbook.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

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
