Hello there, I'm Daniel, a professional English teacher with bags of experience with many students over many years. I adore making real connections with others, building a relationship and building students' confidence with the English language. I live in an off-grid eco house in France which I built with my wife. Gardening is also a favourite hobby of mine, along with running and yoga. I follow a plant-based diet and am passionate about well being. These themes often occur during the deep conversations I enjoy with students.Me as a Teacher
I believe that a solid connection based on mutual understanding is key for creating an enjoyable, relaxing teaching environment. In fact, I am sure that if you are not relaxed, you can't learn!My lessons & teaching style
I will send my students materials before each class, including a video, some pictures and an article. This helps you prepare for the topic and get your brain switched into 'English mode'. My classes are organic and natural, I will aim for a particular topic, but if the conversation goes in a different direction, no worries. I will take every opportunity to introduce new language, work on some persistent mistakes and encourage expression and fluency.
I am certain that language cannot be learned like other subjects. Your brain has already learned your mother tongue to fluency, and I guess you didn't use textbooks, take exams or feel stressed! So, my pedagogy is based on this belief.My teaching material

Lessons with Daniel, on the one hand, are an endless charge of positivity, and on the other hand, a subtle understanding of your gaps in language knowledge and comprehensive help in overcoming such difficulties.
