I am currently self-employed and have been running my own English language tuition service for eight years, where I’ve sourced, managed and taught many ESL students as well as others with learning disabilities, or time constraints.
I live with my wife in South West London, since 2005. Aside from work, we love to travel and explore different parts of the country, as well as overseas, time permitting. Our weekends usually consist of socializing with friends or visiting markets, festivals and towns outside of London. I play tennis and golf, and also enjoy outdoor activities like skiing/snowboarding and hiking.
Teaching languages, especially English, is my passion and I have taught privately, and in schools for over 8 years (CELTA Qualified).
Like many of you I have travelled and enjoy mixing and learning from different cultures, as well as learning languages. I have taught in South America, Asia and Europe where I’ve helped lots of students achieve the level of English they need, in a fun and personal environment.
