Hi, I’m Duran.
I’m originally from London but spent most of my life growing up in Canterbury, Kent. After completing my studies, I moved to Asia, where I taught English to students of all ages, from kindergarten to adults.
I love exploring new cultures and travelling with my family, and I can’t wait to learn more about your language goals.
Ready to start this journey together? Let’s book a class!

My lessons & teaching style
In my classes, I like to use visual effects, pictures, audio, and video, depending on the course and type of lesson. Materials are custom-made for specialist courses; pronunciation and accent reduction, while IELTS, PET, and Cambridge courses follow a structured curriculum based on the course syllabus.
With specialist training in ELT (BA), IELTS and TOEFL Test Prep, and TEFL/TESOL/TEYL, I was honoured to be recognized among the top 10 global teachers for one of Asia’s leading online teaching companies. You will be excited to learn more in my classes.

We had a great discussion with Duran. He prepared the lesson fully concentrating on my learning goals. I’m booking the next class. And obviously I recommend that you give it a try as well.
