Interest topicFilms & TV SeriesReadingTech
I am Phil, a CELTA-qualified English teacher. I speak both French and English at a native level. Lately, I have been focusing on learning Italian. I see it both as a duty and a pleasure since half of my family is Italian. I tend to think I have the heart of a passionate linguist but also the mind of a scientist. Indeed, I learn languages like I would tackle a math problem. I love grammar and concentrate more on patterns than words when learning new vocabulary items. I enjoy a lot of creative activities such as writing, drawing, blogging (in French and in English), making videos… I am very much into sports & have a degree in software development.

Great teacher with solid language knowledge and pedagogical technique to work with. He is also a great listener and manages to offer the little extra when correcting mistakes I made, by providing additional options how to express things in varied ways. Thanks Phil!

Phil is an excellent teacher who always gives you good suggestions about how to speak correctly. He pays attention to detail and really helps you choose a strong vocabulary so that you speak like a native speaker. I truly appreciate his attention to nuances!

I really enjoyed my class with Phil. He quickly tuned in to my level and was able to immediately start helping me fill my gaps in vocabulary. I am looking forward to my next class with Phil.

If you plan to become an advanced learner in French in the near future, I would recommend Phil to you. As we say here in the office, if you want to 'dot all the i's and cross all the t's' with your French Grammar and sentence structure, he is the right tutor for you. A great teacher for the 'keeners'!
