關於我
於 2017年11月27日 成為 italki 教師趣味主題財務會計科學科技旅行寫作
Hi, I'm David, a 42 year old Business English Coach and former HR People Partner. I'm also skilled in UX/UI Design. I'm really interested in no-code web design and digital signage!
I was born in London and I'm a British/Polish dual citizen. I was a Digital Nomad from 2016-2023, and moved to Poland permanently in Sept '23. I specialise in Business English and Job Interview Prep for adults. For 7 years, I've been working with particularly Russian and other Slavic-language speakers to build their English capability and confidence.
I speak Spanish & German (not fluently), and some everyday Serbian and Russian. I am currently learning Polish, so I understand the challenges of language learning!我的教學經歷
*I use SKYPE or GOOGLE MEETS. DO NOT select Italki Classroom*
I've worked with hundreds of individuals over the years, particularly from Slavic-speaking countries, and have lived in many of those countries myself. I'm very culturally-aware as a result of travelling full-time, and have a great knowledge of other languages, which fascinate me!
I want to provide you with a relaxed and comfortable environment in which you can practice and improve your English, in addition to building your CONFIDENCE! I'll always correct grammatical and pronunciation errors, and recommend more suitable vocabulary.我的課程內容與教學風格
They aren't lessons. They're calls. We can work collaboratively on your specific goals, based on what you describe in the trial call. I can suggest a tailored plan to begin with, but it's always great when it's a joint approach! We can also use -
- My Business English eBooks, with a large selection of conversation discussion topics.
- My 'Q&A Bank' - a great tool for preparing for behavioural/HR interviews.
- Material from my website.
- Relevant articles and videos.
Throughout our calls I will correct errors, recommend more suitable vocabulary, idioms, phrasal verbs and collocations, and give you recommendations on how to improve confidence in conversation.我的教材

教學經驗
2017 - 2024
Business English CoachI initially began teaching English to adults on Italki in general and business senses, before moving on to more of a business and job interview preparation focus as a result of my past career in HR. In 2020, I set up my own website as I wanted the opportunity to write supporting blog posts and so on. I studied UX/UI Design in 2023 and I'm currently working on portfolio projects. In addition to HR and Software Development (I mainly work with Russian IT guys), I love discussing UX and Design!

工作經驗
1998 - 2016
HR Business Partner and other roles - StoresFor many years I was a HR Business Partner with Tesco, a large retailer in the UK. Much of my role entailed the same attributes necessary as a teacher, including listening, supporting, motivating and coaching others in an empathetic manner. My role also had an emphasis on management interviews, coaching & development, recruitment, building capability and more!
2016 - 2022
Travel YouTuberI ran a Youtube channel called Tao of David, as well as a website and blog relating to travel, becoming a Digital Nomad and teaching online. I have also written ebooks and consulted new teachers.
Since 2016, I have been travelling full-time. I have lived in countries such as Mexico, Serbia, Belarus, Japan, and Colombia for extended periods. I became a Polish citizen by descent in 2022, and plan to spend some of the future based in the EU, now that I'm an EU citizen once again!
2020 - 2024
Private Online English TeacherIn addition to teaching on Italki, I also offer (mainly) Business English lessons via my website to students who I source from social media, my YouTube channel and by approaching Russian companies who express an interest in me supporting their employees.
2017 - 2024
Online TeacherI have been teaching on Italki since 2017. It's a great platform which has allowed me to get to know so many people from around the world, and learn about new cultures. In addition, I thoroughly enjoy being part of students' progression. Most of my students on Italki are Business English focused and reside in Russian-speaking countries, although I have had students from all over the world!
2023 - 2024
UX/UI Designer/No-Code Web DesignerI am currently working on freelance no-code web design projects using Figma and Framer, for small businesses and those requiring personal websites. If you are UX Designer and want to improve your Business English, we could be a good match! (I'm an ex-HR Manager too!)

I would like to thank Dawid for the trial lesson. We discussed my goals and how we can reach them together. He shared his approaches during the lesson and brought a lot of examples.
I must also mention that he wrote everything down and sent me some examples later.
As a cherry on top, he has an authentic British accent, which was I was looking for.

The perfect lesson with the perfect teacher! It seemed to me that David and I have known each other for a long time, how easy going the lesson was! David corrected me during the whole lesson, however he did it in "the soft way", so to speak. He let me express myself, my point of view and after that suggested a bit more natural and accurate vocabulary and phrases to enrich my speech. That's super cool approach! Of course, David was super patient with my pronunciation and English and supported me during the whole lesson. The lesson went by in a blink of an eye. David, thanks a lot!

I am totally happy with the result of the lesson. Dawid immersed me in a true HR job interview atmosphere. He looked like a professional HR recruiter specialist. He asked interesting questions and was involved in the context. He gave me a lot of valuable feedback and recommendations. I 100% recommend David
