Join Rachel in a trial lesson. We will discuss your English level and your goals for improving your English. I will discuss how I can help you create a plan to achieve your dreams of English fluency.

For intermediate students. We will speak about topics that interest you and I will help you develop  vocabulary and improve your pronunciation. Don't know what you want to talk about? No problem. I have many lists of topics that we can choose from. 

If you want homework, I can give you writing assignments or listening assignments. If you prefer to just show up and talk, that's okay too.

Conversational English

Só começa em inglês? Não lhe preocupe. Nós precisamos um pouco mais estrutura. Eu tenho alguns livros para principiantes e eu vou criar PDFs exercícios para nos. Eu vou ajudar se criar um plano que guiar você do seu primeiro palavra até fluência.

Inglês para principiantes brasileiros ou portugueses.

For intermediate learners who work in the medical field. We will practice medical English the same way you assess a patient, from head to toe. We will drill down on anatomy, first learning common terms for body parts and then the correct medical/anatomical names as well. We will do the same with symptoms, first learning common phrases that patients may use to describe problems and then matching them with the correct medical terms.

20 hour TEFL course on IELTS preparation.

It's a diploma in nursing (more than an AA degree but not a full bachelors)

For the initial meeting, it's important to get to know one another in a relaxed manner while discussing learning goals, interests, etc. If you book, please do message me beforehand the  student's:
 - age 
 - current curriculum
 - thoughts on assistance required (Homework Help? Understanding the PYP or MYP? Essay construction? Adult lessons?)

Hi! I've been teaching kids of all ages in several countries for many years. I am a certified teacher in Canada and have worked in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. My passion is working with young people on self-development in a safe and age-appropriate manner.  Please read on to see more about what I offer in this lesson. 

Many students seek conversational classes, yet figuring out "what to talk about" can be a challenge for both teacher and student. As such, I offer conversation classes grounded in co-active and transformational coaching principles—an approach that is ideal for kids who love to share and reflect on their thoughts and feelings, as well as for those who may find this, and other social-emotional skills, more challenging.

My sessions provide a supportive environment where students can:

a) share their thoughts, explore questions that help them reflect, challenge themselves, and advance their thinking. This is the coaching element that forms the foundation of our sessions.

b) ask questions about English, clarify anything they don’t fully understand, and receive feedback on their communication. This English language support component of the lesson occurs as needed throughout the session or at the end, tailored to each student’s needs.

Students are encouraged to share what’s on their mind and will then engage with questions that promote self-reflection, critical thinking, and problem-solving. By blending educational coaching best practices with language development, my approach builds resilience, confidence, and a genuine connection to both the topics they care about and their English language skills.

English Conversational Coaching for Kids

Many adults seek conversational classes but often find it challenging to identify meaningful topics for discussion. To address this, I offer conversation classes rooted in co-active and transformational coaching principles.

My sessions create a safe, supportive environment where you can:

a) share your thoughts about things that are troubling you and engage in questions that encourage reflection, self-challenge, and forward movement in your thinking. This coaching aspect forms the core of our sessions.

b) ask questions about English, clarify any uncertainties, and receive constructive feedback on communication. This language support can occur during the session, at the end, or as a combination of both.

You'll be encouraged to discuss topics that are relevant to you, responding to targeted questions that promote self-reflection, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Combining best practices from educational coaching with language development, my approach fosters resilience, confidence, and engagement in both your personal growth and English language skills.

The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as:
"partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership."

PLEASE SPECIFY WHICH TRIAL LESSON YOU'RE INTERESTED IN.
1. American English Pronunciation- Intensive
2. Conversation with Correction.
3. American English Pronunciation for beginners
4. Free Conversation
In this trial class I'll just give you an overview of what I offer my students in my regular classes. I'll start by asking you what you're looking to gain from studying pronunciation and what you think your problem areas are. This will also give me a chance to listen to you and give you my assessment of the areas that need work. After that, I might give you a brief introduction to the I.P.A- International Phonetic Alphabet, talk about some mouth and tongue positions for the sounds that are giving you the most problems (time permitted). A half hour goes bye fairly quickly but this will give us the opportunity to get to know each other a little bit and discuss what your pronunciation goals are and how to achieve them.

I specialize in American English Pronunciation/ Accent Reduction for intermediate and advanced-level grammar students. My classes are very structured and start with a PDF and audio file that I will send you before class begins. Each class will be based on the aforementioned PDF and audio files. My classes are very focused, so be prepared to jump into the fundamentals of American English Pronunciation. In my class, you will learn proven techniques to reduce your accent. We will start with the vowels- monophthongs and diphthongs, and the I.P.A.- International Phonetic Alphabet. I will break it down into easy and understandable language. We will study mouth, tongue, and lip positioning, as well as other techniques in order to achieve those often difficult vowel sounds. We will then move on to reductions, syllable stress, intonation, word linking, pitch, connected speech, fricatives, consonant clusters, the schwa, the stop consonants- stopT&D/B&P/G&K, the flapT, the R, the L, the TH, and more... 
My style of teaching is very focused and structured so that you get the most out of every class. You will learn very specific techniques to achieve serious results. This class is for students who are serious about reducing their accent and committed to learning pronunciation the correct way. My students get results quickly because we don't waste any time taking a deep dive into proven techniques that work.
This class can also be modified and changed to adapt to the needs of the student.

American English Pronunciation/ Accent Reduction- INTENSIVE

This is a conversation class for intermediate to advanced-level grammar students. This class is for students who already have a high level of grammar, fluency, and accent but need to refine and fine-tune their English pronunciation. I will correct your mistakes and show you some techniques (mouth positions, etc) to sound more natural and understandable. Unlike my more intensive pronunciation class, I won't send out PDFs and audio, but I will stop the conversation to give you very specific advice, techniques, and instructions to improve your accent.

Conversation with focus on pronunciation

I specialize in American English pronunciation/ accent reduction for intermediate and advanced-level grammar students. My classes start with a PDF and an audio file that I will send you before class begins. Every other class, I will send a document, but unlike my American English Pronunciation course- Intensive, we will move at a slower pace.
My classes are very focused, so be prepared to jump into the fundamentals of accent reduction.

We will study mouth, lip, and tongue positioning, as well as other techniques to achieve those often difficult vowel sounds. We will then move on to reductions, consonants, fricatives, consonant clusters, the stop consonants- the stop TD/BP/GK, and the flap T, the R, the L, and the TH sounds. We will learn word stress, intonation, pitch, speech patterns, the schwa, word linking, connected speech, and more.

American English Pronunciation/Accent Reduction-BEGINNER

This is a conversation class, NOT A PRONUNCIATION class. We will have a fluid conversation on any topics that you may be interested in. I would be happy to guide the conversation if you so choose. I will correct your grammar and pronunciation when needed, and make suggestions to better express yourself in the English language. But this is NOT A PRONUNCIATION class. This class is for students with a B-1 level and higher.

Free Conversation

For the past four academic school years, I've been teaching in a semi-private Catholic school here in Madrid. I teach second, fifth, and sixth grade, working closely with teachers creating lesson plans for teaching grammar, reading, pronunciation, and exam preparation. I also create PowerPoint presentations for the kids, introducing them to various topics of cultural relevance and differences between the U.S. and Spain.

For over 11 years I've worked as an Accent Reduction Coach, teaching English phonetics and pronunciation to people from all over the world. I've worked with actors, YouTubers, and business executives including some major corporations throughout The United States and Western Europe. I continue to work remotely as I mostly teach online these days as I travel the world.

I achieved an A grade in Business Studies at A-Level (in the UK, this is the stage of education before university). I then chose to enter the workplace and develop my career as the cost of university in the UK was out of my reach!

I achieved an E grade in German at A-Level. In the UK, this is the stage prior to university

For many years I was a HR Business Partner with Tesco, a large retailer in the UK. Much of my role entailed the same attributes necessary as a teacher, including listening, supporting, motivating and coaching others in an empathetic manner. My role also had an emphasis on management interviews, coaching & development, recruitment, building capability and more!

I ran a Youtube channel called Tao of David, as well as a website and blog relating to travel, becoming a Digital Nomad and teaching online. I have also written ebooks and consulted new teachers.

Since 2016, I have been travelling full-time. I have lived in countries such as Mexico, Serbia, Belarus, Japan, and Colombia for extended periods. I became a Polish citizen by descent in 2022, and plan to spend some of the future based in the EU, now that I'm an EU citizen once again!

In addition to teaching on Italki, I also offer (mainly) Business English lessons via my website to students who I source from social media, my YouTube channel and by approaching Russian companies who express an interest in me supporting their employees.

I have been teaching on Italki since 2017. It's a great platform which has allowed me to get to know so many people from around the world, and learn about new cultures. In addition, I thoroughly enjoy being part of students' progression. Most of my students on Italki are Business English focused and reside in Russian-speaking countries, although I have had students from all over the world!

I am currently working on freelance no-code web design projects using Figma and Framer, for small businesses and those requiring personal websites. If you are UX Designer and want to improve your Business English, we could be a good match! (I'm an ex-HR Manager too!)

I completed the Google UX Design course. I am now a freelance UX/UI Designer and no-code Web Designer alongside teaching English. Many of my students are specifically UX/UI Designers also who are focusing on job interview prep in international environments. My technical knowledge allows me to help them achieve their goals. I also have my portfolio link you can look at - https://davidostrowski.framer.website/

I worked for a large retailer in the UK for 18 years from 1998-2016 in various roles such as HR Business Partner. https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-barkham/

I have been teaching Business English and Interview Preparation for 8 years on both Italki and my private website with positive reviews.

I am also a freelance UX/UI Designer and no-code Web Designer - many of my students are also in these roles (as well as developers) 

https://davidostrowski.net/

I initially began teaching English to adults on Italki in general and business senses, before moving on to more of a business and job interview preparation focus as a result of my past career in HR. In 2020, I set up my own website as I wanted the opportunity to write supporting blog posts and so on. I studied UX/UI Design in 2023 and I'm currently working on portfolio projects. In addition to HR and Software Development (I mainly work with Russian IT guys), I love discussing UX and Design!

vocabulary

Improve your pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. Practise for the IELTS test (or others). Boost your speaking confidence. I have activities for all levels!

Classes include real-world language and varied activities. I also listen carefully to my students, so if you want to practise something specific, just tell me.

I look forward to meeting you!

----------------

Please note that, because it's currently not possible on Italki to change a lesson in under 24 hours before a class, only 50% of the class cost (in terms of money or time) will be refunded if a student cancels in less than 24 hours before a class.

I prepare classes to suit you and your needs. For better pronunciation, increased vocabulary, or more advanced grammar, we will do lots of speaking practice in particular. I usually present new words or concepts with a presentation and then move practice activities, conversation practice, and/or role plays. If you want to do homework outside class times, I'm also happy to give you tasks to do independently.

I speak British English, as a native speaker from northern England. But I can help you to understand non-British English too.

So what are your language goals? Why are you learning? What are you good at already, and what do you need to improve? Please ask yourself these questions, and book a class with me to find out how I can help you on your journey towards a more fluent English.

Intermediate English (B1-B2)

I plan classes to help you maintain and further your already-high level English language skills. I'm flexible, but my main aim will be to support you on your journey towards boosting your vocabulary further, ironing out remaining pronunciation issues, and fostering flawless grammar usage. We'll place particular energy on speaking and listening in order to increase your fluency. And we'll use presentations, videos, texts, images, and/or role plays to ensure the language is grounded in real world contexts.

I'm a native English speaker from England, so you'll be learning British English. But I can also help you to understand non-British English.

So what are your strengths and weaknesses in the language? And what's driving you to reach an even higher level? Once you've answered these questions, please book a class with me and I'll tailor your classes to suit you and your needs.

Advanced English (C1-C2)

Are you a beginner in English? This class is for elementary level learners.

I'm from England, and I will teach you some important words. I will also help you to practise saying them well so other people understand. My aim is to make you feel comfortable communicating basic ideas in English. Videos, images and role plays will help in our classes too.

This course is currently only available for adults.

¿Necesitas aprender inglés? ¡Puedo ayudar! Soy hablante nativo de Inglaterra, y te enseñaré palabras y estructuras básicas.

English (A1-A2) / Inglés para principiantes

Talking is the best way to improve your fluency. So let's chat!

I'll give you feedback on your grammar (and pronunciation if necessary), and share some new vocabulary with you too when appropriate. But the focus of these classes is for you to speak as much as possible. And to make it more fun and interesting for you, you can choose the conversation topics beforehand.

English conversation classes for advanced speakers (C1-C2)

The IELTS test can make a massive difference in your life - no matter where you come from.

I will help you prepare for IELTS with activities like the ones you will see in the test. The main aim of our classes will be to make you feel more comfortable recognising and using a wide range of vocabulary (as you're required to do in the test), and to give you more confidence in your abilities ahead of the big day.

Whether you want to study abroad at a higher education institution or to work in a different country, the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a powerful tool. It's a highly popular and respected test - and millions of people every year take it to show universities, employers and governments what their level of language proficiency is.

Research proves that the best learning happens when classrooms are enjoyable and relevant to you, the student. There is a strong connection between positive emotions and memory retention, so you will have FUN as you LEARN! All my lessons focus on your interests and goals. 

You will experience a new way of learning in my classroom. We will work together to set your English learning goals and discuss a plan to reach them. 

I believe that long-lasting learning happens in a relaxed and enjoyable environment. I hope you'll join me in this unique classroom.

👦🏻 学前班和小学儿童课程 👧🏻 Kid's Lesson

👦🏻 初中和高中儿童课程 👧🏻 Teenager's Lesson

This certificate was obtained in person. This week-long course is spent in a large classroom learning 40 different teaching methods, particularly how they can be applied to teaching a second language. The course is very interactive and engaging.

This was an online course I took through VIPKID. It involved reading text and watching videos that helped me improve my online teaching skills. After taking an exam that pertained to the course, I received the certificate.

I chose to take this course again as a refresher.

This was an online course I took through VIPKID. It involved reading text and watching videos that helped me improve my online teaching skills, particularly with young students. After taking an exam that pertained to the course, I received the certificate.

My studies at the University of Science, Arts & Techology focused on education and included the following courses: How We Learn, The Art of Teaching, An Introduction to Neuroscience and the Human Brain, Neuroscience 1: Brain Systems, Neuroscience 2: Applied Neuroscience, Memory and the Human Lifespan, Understanding Linguistics, and the History of English Language Usage.

I am currently contracted with VIPKID. I teach English as a second language to Chinese children from age 4 - 17.

I worked at an insurance company for 14 years, so I have experience with business English.
