영어 전문 원어민 선생님

Hi! I am also a professional actor, and acting coach. I work with actors, business people, and anyone who wants to speak with an American accent. I have 4 years experience, and I am certified in TEFL and TESOL, as well as Business English.

Garreth (Native British English Teacher) Hi there! I specialize in IELTS, Business English, Interview Preparation, CV & Document Editing and General Conversation Practice. Before teaching English I worked in the finance industry in London. I’ve been teaching English for over 5 years to professionals and students of all ages and backgrounds (from elementary kids and university students to teaching Business English to professional individuals) and I really, really enjoy it! I'm really flexible and a personable teacher and I strongly believe in making students feel relaxed (I know what its like to try and lean a new language!) I adapt my lessons so that you learn at your own pace as I think this is really important and I always try and make them as fun as possible! I look forward to hearing from you......

I know that you sometimes feel tongue-tied when you try and speak in English, the words dry up and your brain seems to have turned to mush, even though you have hours of classroom experience and know lots of English vocabulary and grammar rules! I can speak fluent French, but I still remember that feeling. Our receptive skills are always much stronger than our productive skills in language acquisition. I can help you use your current English language skills to be able to communicate with ease and coherence and will teach you how to build on them and improve your confidence. You will really sense that success; you will stop worrying about grammar and producing sophisticated sentences and instead, will learn to love your mistakes! I like this quote from Richard Branson: ‘You don't learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.’ This brings an image of a toddler to mind, doesn’t it? That brings me to another point – children learn language by ‘doing’, experimenting and experiencing the rich rewards of getting their message across. We can all get a message over successfully when we need to communicate. Your lessons with me will be about real communication – on topics of genuine interest to you. Both your self-confidence and your English skills will flourish! You need a minimum of 5.5 in IELTS to get to a university in England – work towards a band 6 or 7 with me; you will get to that magical point where you can speak at length ‘without noticeable effort or loss of coherence’….let’s get going! I offer academic and general writing tuition, speaking practice, reading (at speed) and active listening...the whole package to help you move up through the IELTS bands. I'm also able to offer lessons at lower levels, pure conversation or Business English. Book with me today and become confident in English!
