Introduction:

British English With Confidence!

Hi! My name is Andy, and I am a native English speaker from England. I am 25 years old and I have been teaching English for 4 years in England, Chile and Colombia. I have a masters degree in education and music, and love to teach!

After living in Chile, and now living in Colombia I am aware how scary learning a new language can be, but I am a relaxed and encouraging teacher who loves mistakes. Remember- mistakes are the first step to improving! I also specialise in Spanish to English pronunciation and conversation.

Speaking in English does not need to be scary, and I love hearing my students develop, form opinions and improve their English through our classes.

I have an interest in virtually every subject and I adore learning about new cultures and opinions, however in particular I love football (soccer), rugby and all forms of music.

I hope we can have a class soon and start to improve your English together!

Teaching Specialty:

English Basics › Pronunciation / Phonics

Experience and resources spanning the last four years of teaching English as a foreign language. I like to indicate basic structures and insist on quality examples in conversation.

English Basics › Vocabulary / Useful Phrases

Due to my experience within three countries and having students who have moved to English-speaking countries, I am aware of the specific English and phrases my learners really need in English Conversation.

Everyday English › Intermediate

Experience and resources spanning the last four years of teaching English as a foreign language.

Everyday English › Situational Conversation

Having a broad range of knowledge about a variety of topics in English including business, accounting, recreational activities and cultural discussion, I am able to provide the necessary tuition towards specific goals.

Everyday English › Free Conversation

I enjoy preparing topics from various news websites or for areas of interests for my students. However, if required I can also provide free-flowing, relaxed conversation with friendly tips and information supplied within a class.
