先生紹介:
I teach English for business, legal, education or leisure purposes to people from all backgrounds.
My name is Peter and I am a native English speaker. In 2018, 2019 and 2020 I lived part of the time in Belgrade, the capital city of Serbia, but in March 2020 I returned home to the north-west of England because of the pandemic. I have the CELTA qualification for teaching English. Since 2016 I have taught English in the UK, Germany, Spain and Serbia as well as online. I have taught Skima Talk lessons since September 2016 and always enjoy my lessons with Japanese learners of English. In November 2017 I took a course on Teaching Live Online and so have extra skills to help my SkimaTalk students.
I studied French and German at Oxford University and so I know how difficult - and rewarding - learning a foreign language can be. I am now learning Serbian. I like to share my enthusiasm for languages (but especially English) with my students.
I spent 20 years as a solicitor in commercial law firms, specialising in the law relating to the provision of occupational pensions and so can give specialist teaching to people who are learning English for business or legal purposes.
I am also very keen on the arts. I have had several reviews of orchestral concerts and operas published by Bachtrack. I go to the theatre and cinema, and to museums and art galleries and I read a lot. If students have similar interests I can build lessons around these topics.
I am happy to teach people who wish to learn English for other academic or professional purposes, because they wish to travel to English speaking countries, or just for fun.
I find discussion of other cultures endlessly fascinating and find teaching students from around the world rewarding. I love the technical aspects of language too - grammar, pronunciation and so on are a joy to me.
先生の得意分野:
General conversation can be a lesson in itself of a part of a mixed lesson. I like to include a conversation element in lessons as it keeps both teacher and student alert. You never know what direction the discussion will take! It can reveal strengths and weaknesses that we can look at in more detail later.
I have a lot of experience of working with people in a commercial setting, including business professionals such as lawyers, accountants and actuaries. I look forward to sharing my experience with you!
We can make our conversations as free or as structured as you wish. We can discuss world affairs, what we did at the weekend, our jobs, families or hobbies, or focus on particular areas of grammar or vocabulary. Let's find out what would be good for you!
The ability to make a presentation in important to many people working in business. We can practise organising material and presenting it in clear English in our lessons.
We can build on your existing knowledge of buiness English to increase your proficiency
If you are starting to use English in a business context we can practise useful phrases and sentences.
I can help you use appropriate English in your writing, whether it is an email to a friend, a job application, an article for publication or a business report.
I love grammar! The way language works is fascinating. I hope to share my enthusiasm with my students.
I spent 20 years in a commercial law firm and so can help anyone whose aim is to work in a business or legal environment. As a solicitor I used to train junior members of my team to write business letters and reports. I can do this with you too.
