Improve your English with a native teacher

Teacher joined in Aug, 2022

Polytechnic graduate with Diploma in Business Management, with specializations in Customer Service and International Business. Have tutored multiple students in various subjects such as Primary School English, Math, and Science. Secondary school English, Chinese and pure Biology. Teaching English is my specialization, and I’d see to it that the basic foundation is built up for my students, followed by strengthening weak areas in the language. Additionally, I’ve worked in various call centres in companies that require proficiency in English communication, as well as being an ambassador representing the company in interacting with customers. These experiences have equipped me with interpersonal and communication skills, leadership and thinking skills. Having acquired all these tools which are necessary in teaching, I am confident to impart these to my students, and see them make strides in picking up English language. The process of learning English includes reading, deciphering the meanings of different words, engaging in conversations, and the practice in writing. I’ll be glad to guide you in this journey of picking up the art of English communication and writing!

(ONLINE LESSON) I am currently teaching students within our city, beginners and elementary levels. As a personal tutor, I have learned to be patient and love the students I am teaching. Learning is not something like a 1,2,3. Every learner should take time to learn and give attention to what they want to learn. It's not easy but also it's not that hard, it depends on the motivation of each learner. Giving even one hour each day. The easiest way to learn English and Filipino languages is consistency. Don't stop. Never give up.

I am a native British English speaker from Wales (UK), but you should not choose me as your English teacher because I am a native speaker. Can you teach me your language because you are a native speaker? I imagine it would be quite a challenge to explain all of the grammatical rules! You should choose me as your English teacher because I have taught English as a second language (ESL) to students from all around the world for more than five years. I have successfully helped students like you learn and reinforce the basics, as well as prepare for interviews, professional presentations, travel abroad, IELTS, CAE and many more. With a teacher who knows what words are commonly confused, what mistakes are usually made and how to explain concepts in an easy-to-understand way, you will be able to progress at any level. I look forward to meeting you soon! Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, I am here to help.

It is actually easy to learn English--especially conversational English--when you have optimal conditions. This means that you are ready to learn, the course content is right for you, the teaching style compliments your own and you have good synergy with the instructor. Much of the English spoken by African Americans is quite dynamic. This is because we cleverly blend our own African language styles into the English language thus quite effectively creating a rather dynamic style.

Why Learning English With A Private English Tutor?

TUTOROO works with a community of over 4,500 private English teachers in more than 150 cities. Our English tutors help their students improve their English skills by providing them with personalised online and in-person lessons. The internet is full of helpful resources for non-native English speakers to learn English, with materials for all levels in order to improve one's vocabulary or English grammar. So why would you need to hire a private English teacher to learnEnglish?

First, private English tutors are able to meet specific English learning needs that static online resources may not always provide. With one-on-one English lessons , you can easily progress towards English language fluency. Students can choose to focus their lessons on grammar exercises, vocabulary, pronunciation, writing, reading comprehension, speaking practice, and more.

Below are some of the benefits of learning English with an English teacher with TUTOROO:

1. Best English Tutors for Kids, Teens and Adults

One-on-one English tuition with a private English teacher allows you to have the undivided attention you deserve. Private English classes are customised to your learning goals and your rhythm. Perhaps you are interested specifically in business English, conversational English, or private lessons for your kids - an English tutor can customise your English lessons to meet your needs and help you improve your skills thanks to real-world lessons from a native speaker.

When you learn English with a TUTOROO tutor, you get direct answers to all of your questions, this helps you improve your language skills faster in areas you struggle with, from pronunciation and vocabulary to other grammar issues. A private English teacher can immediately identify your mistakes and correct your inaccuracies. You get to ask direct questions when things aren't clear and obtain immediate answers from them.

For example, for non-native English speakers, the English language can sometimes be contradictory. For example, the 'ch' in 'chair' is pronounced differently from the 'ch' in 'chiffon'. The 'th' in 'thumb' is pronounced differently from the 'th' in 'that'. A private English teacher can help you avoid these common pitfalls to achieve English language success and gain strong English communication skills.

In a nutshell, learning English with a TUTOROO tutor is much more fun and interesting than just watching online videos or learning online through tutorials. You may now improve your English skills with our online and in-person private tutors. We actually help students from around the world improve their English skills.

Get started today and start improving your English language skills with a private English teacher now!

2. Learning English From Scratch

Everyone learns a new language at a different pace and some even start learning from scratch and have no previous knowledge of the new language they wish to learn. One may be great at English grammar but be struggling over pronunciation, or at the contrary excel in conversational English but struggle with reading and writing. In a group class, the tutor will move on if the majority of the class understands. With one-on-one private English courses, your English teacher works at the pace you are comfortable with, and can also adapt their teaching methods for you.

3. Working Around Your Schedule

Unusual scheduling needs? Preparing for an English proficiency test? Need intensive English classes? No problem, you can work with your TUTOROO English teacher to find a timing and frequency that suits you for your English tuition. With a private tutor, you can take classes according to your schedule. Improve your English skills by learning from native speakers. This way, you're 100% flexible.

When you learn English with a teacher, you get flexibility, customised lessons and you get to meet a bright and interesting person: your new private tutor!

As a non-native English speaker, many higher education schools or universities where English is the standard language of teaching will require you to take an English proficiency test. This test is proof of your English language ability and ensures you have the necessary oral, aural and writing skills to complete your course. Don't let a language barrier stop you from achieving your dreams. Hire a private English language teacher to help you prepare for your English proficiency test.

The two most common tests are the TOEFL or IELTS:

TOEFL (The Test of English as a Foreign Language) is the most common English proficiency test. There are two formats for writing TOEFL and you can choose your preferred format: an internet-based test or a paper-delivered test. The sections in the test include listening comprehension, written expression, reading comprehension and speaking. The test takes about 3 hours to complete and the result is valid for two years. Most universities require that you score between 90 to 100 (B2). However, some universities may require that you attain a minimum score in each section while meeting the B2 proficiency requirement.

IELTS (The International English Language Testing System) is another widely recognised English proficiency test. The test has two versions which are the academic version and the general training version. Most employers and universities worldwide accept the academic version, while the general training version is accepted by government institutions and used for immigration.

The first 3 sections of the IELTS - listening, reading and writing - lasts 2 hours 40 mins. The last component is a speaking test done in the presence of an examiner. IELTS scores range between 1 and 9 with universities requiring a minimum of 6 or 7. The minimum score is equivalent to C1 and B2 proficiency levels. You can get your IELTS results 13 days after the test and the result is valid for two years.

Although not as common as IELTS or TOEFL, CAE (Cambridge Certificate of Advanced English) and CPE (Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English) are often an admission requirement for UK universities. Usually, only people at an advanced English level can take CAE and CPE. They are in-depth, high-level qualifications that demonstrate an English proficiency level of C1 - 7 to 8 in IELTS or 110 to 120 in TOEFL. You can take CAE and CPE either on your computer or in person. Like the other tests, the CAE and CPE tests reading, writing, listening and speaking. The speaking section of the test will be done with another candidate to test fluency in face-to-face situations. Unlike TOEFL and IELTS, CAE and CPE certificates don't expire. The highest grade is an A and the lowest score in CAE and CPE is C, with most universities requiring a minimum of B for admission.
