For over 7 years I have taught Business English and Interview Techniques online.
I have the following:
Bachelor's Degree in Business Studies
Qualified Accountant
25 years Computer Programming experience.
TEFL Certificate with a Distinction
Advanced Certificate in Business English
Advanced Certificate Teaching English Online.
British English Accent (Received Pronunciation - I speak slowly and clearly).
My object is to help YOU take your career to the next stage.
My students MUST have English to B2, C1 or C2 level (if you are not sure we can always have a trial to find out).
I do not teach Grammar, but will help you rectify mistakes in this area.
Me as a Teacher
For Interviews I concentrate on your CV and Answering 4 Key Questions, "Tell me about yourself", "What are your strengths?", "What are your weaknesses?", "Do you have any questions for us?"
Regarding Business English, my business background gives me the ability to understand where you need to improve.
I enhance your level of English in the Core topics of Conversation, Listening, Pronunciation, Reading, Speaking, Writing and Vocabulary, by applying them in areas such as Meetings, Reporting, Case Studies, Role Play and Interview Practice.
Everyone has an area they feel unsure about. Practice specifically your weak areas until they become strengths.
My lessons & teaching style
In Interview Lessons we concentrate on how your Achievements and Experience relate to the Job Specification.
My teaching style reflects what YOU need to know in Business English.
In short, I help you 'Fill The Gaps'
Each student is different and classes are designed to suit the individual, not from a text book.
My experience and qualifications allow me to cover a wide area in depth, including Finance, Marketing, HR, Sales, Logistics and more.
It is not WHAT you know, but the APPLICATION OF IT which is important.
The aim of lessons is to help YOU fill the gaps in your knowledge and improve your career prospects.
Fill the gaps and move up to the level you deserve.

A conversational lesson is not as easy as it seems, it's about developing the student's interactional competence in English. Norman is an excellent teacher and leads these classes brilliantly.
