Hi Everyone,
My name is Malcolm, my native language is English [UK] and I’ve been teaching English since 1998.
I live in the UK where I was born but have family in Spain and Australia. Although a qualified secondary school teacher I worked in the film industry for 30 years as a Propmaster, for the Art department. In that time I worked on film projects in Mexico, Spain, France, Morocco, Panama and many other locations abroad and in the UK.
I have worked at several language schools in the UK and Spain. I teach mainly on Zoom but also use the Italki and Skype platforms, and have students from many different countries. [many working as IT professionals]. I speak Spanish and French.Ik als leerkracht
I'm friendly, patient and adapt my teaching style to the needs of my students. Apart from teaching, I have worked in finance, the film industry [30yrs] and have a wide work experience.
My personal interests are reading, travelling, salsa dancing and restoring vintage artwork and furniture
I like to encourage my students to contribute feedback so that we progress at the right speed and level of content.
I teach General English, Business English, IELTS Certificate Courses and topic based Conversation English for everyday use.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I mix my teaching styles depending on the needs of the student which often means switching between Topics for improving Vocabulary, Grammar for increasing Accuracy and Conversation for improving Fluency.
I try not to correct every tiny mistake until my students are confident and are ready to take this step. Homework is encouraged but optional.
Seeing students improve each lesson is very rewarding for me and I look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Master - CeramicsI only did a three year Cert.Ed course and l have lost the certificate. I have tried twice over the years to get a copy. However the college has been through several mergers and finally came under the umbrella of Brunel University.
I have an email from them confirming my attendance and pass at Cert.Ed from other records but unfortunately they cannot trace my actual certificate. A copy of the email is uploaded.

Werkervaring
2018 - 2020
Part-time English Language teacherHave been teaching visiting French school students visiting UK on short cultural visits.
This has enabled me to highlight common problem areas of language in a very short time, as the visits are for only 1-2 weeks and the lessons are for only 15hrs a week.
2013 - 2018
Part-time English Language TeacherI was teaching small groups [normally 6 students] of German students on two week visits to the UK.
I taught 21hrs over the two week periods. [ages 13-18yrs]
I also taught One-to-One over two week periods, 22.5hrs.
Students expected to cover their chosen areas of weakness, so a lot of Grammar and Skills covered in a short period of time.
