The best online English conversation tutors

Fully qualified UK school teacher (PGCE/QTS/CELTA) with 10+ years of classroom experience 👋 Hi! I’m Liam. I’ve been a professional educator for over a decade. I hold a CELTA, a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education), and QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) from the UK. This means I’ve spent my career studying the science of learning. 🇦🇺/🇬🇧 I’m a native English speaker. I grew up in Australia and studied at university in the UK (Bath Spa University). 🛠️ My university research focused on formative assessment. This means I utilise a professional toolkit of evidence-based strategies to constantly assess your progress and adapt my teaching in real-time. 🗣️ My lessons are based on the communicative approach. My goal is to maximise your opportunities to speak. Why? Because fluency is a skill you only improve through practice. 🌍 I've taken over 230 (and counting) lessons as a student on italki (Portuguese and French), so I've been in your situation. Both professional training and my own experience with tutors have shown me which approaches truly build confidence. 📅 Since everyone is unique, I invite you to get in touch so we can discuss what you need. I’ll create a personalised learning plan for you, including a detailed diagnostic assessment and a discussion about which resources will be the best fit for you. 🚀 Ready to start? Book a trial, and let’s see how I can help.

A licensed teacher in Swedish, English, Spanish and a Polyglot (6 languages and counting) As a teacher, I am professional, structured and I know how to motivate my students - which is exactly why I have had success in my classrooms so far. Since I am a professional teacher - and by professional I mean licensed - I am familiar with the latest methods and approaches to teaching and learning. The fact that I speak four languages is useful for you as a student, as I can incorporate my knowledge of languages into the content that I deliver. Languages are seldom isolated; rather, they are interconnected in such as way that you, if you are able to master several languages, are much more likely to be able to explain grammatical concepts and structures in a pedagogical and digestible way.

BC认证雅思培训师 I have taught over 10,000 lessons on italki, and I am skilled in teaching both kids and adults. Under my approach, many of my students have achieved fluency, and excellent scores in standardized tests like IELTS and HSK. I have also researched and self-created contents for over 500+ daily scenarios, each dialogue is specially designed, so grammar structures are taught naturally through the dialogues, to ensure easy understanding. These topics pretty much cover every possible scenario in life, so you can be sure that you would reach a near native level of vocabulary after learning them.

I completed a 120 hour TEFL course in 2020. I have also taught children from the ages of five to eighteen in Acting and English speech. I love this work as it is incredibly rewarding and allows me to help young minds develop! I ran a youth club for High School Children for a year and I love using this to help make people's day a little bit brighter! Also, I have tutored teenagers for their English GCSE exams and I am currently running a Performing Arts Club at my Church! My teaching experience has allowed me to understand the best techniques and styles. I am so grateful to my time spent as a teacher as it has given me experience and knowledge that has continued to help me.
