      John is a great teacher. He has been teaching my 16 year old daughter these months and she has felt very easy, has learnt very much and has also enjoyed the lessons. He has motivated her very well. I fully recommend him. You will not regret!

      Johs is a wonderful teacher. He was the one who has helped me with passing CAE. He always has an advice for exams and knows the structure and concentrated on everything, not only on one subjects.

      Founder/Director

    My specialties

    My speciality is Conversational English, particularly for IELTS, Cambridge exams and Business needs. I place an emphasis on correct pronunciation and grammar when speaking.


    I coach senior Business Management with reasonable English ability to develop their skills and feel confident in an English Business surrounding. This includes preparation for BEC Vantage and Higher examinations.


    I coach students in preparation for IELTS exams and encourage them to reach for the highest scoring Bands. I will show students how to create the written exercises and abide by the Writing and Speaking Descriptors, which outline the elements an examiner seeks.


    I only coach using British English and specialise in correct pronunciation and diction.


    I regularly help students prepare for job interviews. We jointly determine the form the interview will take and then, using role play, reherse the interview until the student feels confident.


    I work with international students studying for IELTS, Cambridge First (FCE), Cambridge C1 Advanced, and Cambridge C2 Proficiency (CPE). I concentrate mainly on the Writing and Speaking elements of each exam, paying particular attention to the Grade Descriptors applied when marking the exam papers.


    I usually establish the level at which the CEO currently speaks English and then discover the expectations from my tutoring. Based on this information, I plan each session based around these two elements.


    There are three levels in BEC - Preliminary, Vantage and Higher. I have the business experience and coaching knowledge to assist students in these fields.


    I have previous experience in assisting top management to improve their business spoken English.


    Some students like to sit this exam, particularly younger ones, as it starts them on the ladder to the achievement of higher examination levels, such as IELTS or Cambridge Advanced.
