About Me

I provide General, Business, and exam English Language lessons and courses to groups and individuals, including reparation for IELTS and Cambridge English exams. In addition, I have tutored groups of Master’ Degree candidates at the IMO International Maritime Law Institute at the University of Malta and provided English Language courses for international business services.

I produce and deliver English Language courses to adult learners in groups, small groups, and one-to-one, covering English for General, Business, and Academic purposes. My courses are tailored to your requirements, which we will discuss and agree.
Coming from a training and IT-based background, I qualified as an English Language Teacher with a CertTESOL from Trinity College, London, in 2013. I started teaching immediately after and have since delivered over 10,000 hours of English Language lessons to hundreds of students worldwide. Having started teaching in an international English Language School in London, I moved to Malta – where I now live with my wife and pets. I first taught face-to-face in classrooms but started teaching online in 2018 to reach a broader range of language learners.

With the advent of Coronavirus, the school where I worked closed down, so I continued teaching online to teenage and adult learners.

In addition, focus on skills, such as Grammar, Vocabulary and Pronunciation, is covered through Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing methods. I work with age-appropriate materials accredited by Oxford University Press and Cambridge English. Click here for more details or here to book lessons.

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.

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 :)
