About Me
Good afternoon students and future stars,
My name is John, a qualified English teacher with over 7 years teaching experience. My focus will always be on you- the student-when aiming to help you improve your level of English. My lessons are very interactive and tailored to your individual preferences. I create and adapt lessons on what YOU wish to focus on.
You choose your level, you choose the pace you learn at, you progress rapidly. My aim is to ensure you progress from a beginner to an affluent learner and lover of the English language. Whether you wish to simply learn basic grammar, punctuation and the vocabulary of a native speaker or you wish to learn the intricacies and connotations evident in the English Literature and Language curriculum.
Tailored to your particular needs and interests, I am a dedicated, qualified professional teacher from Ireland who has over 6 years of experience teaching in the UK and overseas across a variety of curriculums, including Scottish Nationals, and English Cambridge, Pearsons and Edexcel.

Testimonials
John is a fantastic teacher who really cares about his students and wants them to do well. As a student at the French Lycée, English is not my first language and I had difficulty with exam techniques and time management for the Cambridge iGCSE First Language exam. John’s help was invaluable. He reviewed my work and provided me with great tips and advice which made a real difference to my grades in just a few sessions. The exam results just came out and I am very grateful for John’s help in securing my A*.

I received my GCSE results earlier today and wanted to let you know as you were a great help in me getting these grades, so thank you. In English Language I got an A-/7, and in Literature I got a B+. I cannot stress enough how much your lesson really helped me and I can only imagine if we had had more time together I would’ve gotten a higher grade.
