Hi, I’m Matthew! Originally from Miami, Florida, I’m passionate about languages and travel. I’m a CELTA Certified, Colombian-American English Teacher & IELTS Coach living in Istanbul, Türkiye.
I have spent my entire life with English language learners. I grew up in a home with an American dad and a Colombian mom, who I witnessed learning English as I grew up in university. I spent a lot of time with international students from all over the world and helped them adjust to life in America. and after I graduated, I moved to Istanbul, Türkiye, and learned Turkish.
My experiences make me uniquely empathetic to you as a learner and allow me to better help you improve your language skills.

I have experience teaching students in a variety of settings and from diverse backgrounds. One-on-one with a man from Yemen, group classes in a 100% Hispanic community, in a classroom setting with students who have mild to severe disabilities, and online with students from Türkiye and Germany.
As a CELTA-certified teacher, I design lessons that are student-centered and focus on real-life, practical language use. I want you to feel confident and prepared to use English in everyday situations.

I'm incredibly happy to have found a teacher like Matthew. For me, the lessons are not just classes; they are enjoyable conversations with a friend. In such an atmosphere, learning the language is a pleasure, and I feel motivated to continue improving my skills. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone who wants to move away from routine language learning and make it a delightful experience!

It's my second lesson with Matthew and I enjoyed it a lot. I'm a somewhat experienced English speaker which is why I usually don't learn new words in a regular conversation. But with Matthew's lesson I learned a whole lot of new words, expressions and idioms because he prepared useful speaking activities for the lesson. They were also really fun! He also gave me tips on how to improve my pronunciation. Thank you very much! :)
