About Me
Hello! I am Edward, a CELTA-qualified English tutor from England with 3000+ hours of online teaching experience. I also specialise in English for Negotiating and have been teaching classes and coaching professionals for the last two years.
My present students come from all backgrounds, countries, age ranges and levels of English; whether business professionals looking to improve their international communication skills or school pupils trying to get to the top of their class, I have helped dozens of students make the breakthroughs they have been searching for. Just read my reviews!
From advanced level students perfecting their grammar and expanding their vocabulary to near-beginners wanting to raise their confidence levels and improve their conversational skills, I have helped them all on their journey through the English language.
My knowledge of languages, linguistics and philology is extensive, but I am keen on keeping things accessible, relevant and fun when I teach.
I am a trained multi-linguist, speaking both French and Spanish, with a BA degree (2:1) in Hispanic Studies at the University of Nottingham and a CELTA qualification from the University of Sheffield's acclaimed ELTC.

My trial lessons
- For the first 5 minutes, I tell you a little about who I am, who I teach and how I teach them.
- Then we focus on you, the student, and why you want to improve your English.
- Asking key questions about your experience with English and your future goals, I analyse your needs as I analyse your skill levels.
- From this I outline a path for us to follow in order to achieve your goals.
- Finally, I aim to teach you something in English in the trial lesson that you never knew before!
