Craig is a great teacher, from the first lesson, I knew that he could give me what I was looking for, which was to correct my French pronunciation. It also allowed me to improve my level in English to be chosen for a job in an English-speaking country.

About the tutor

Do you have trouble expressing yourself in English? Maybe you're not confident to use the language, especially in front of native speakers?


I offer conversational classes to give you the freedom and confidence to practice your skills and have a real conversation about a subject that interests you. After our trial lesson, I'll provide you with a comprehensive placement test to identify your weaker areas to give is a plan of what to focus on.


I'm a qualified TEFL teacher and have been teaching online for some time, with over 2000 hours teaching experience through Preply.


I'm a native English speaker and have 20 years informal experience teaching English to foreign students who have visited my country.


As an editor in my spare time, I have a strong grasp of written English and can help in that aspect as well as conversational English.


I am generally available for lessons from 9am - 6pm GMT Monday to Friday.


***AS I AM. NOW AT ALMOST FULL CAPACITY PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE YOU BOOK A TRIAL, TO CHECK AVAILABILITY. NOTE THAT I AM NOT CURRENTLY TAKING ON SHORT TERM STUDENTS. ONLY CONSIDER ME IF YOU ARE PLANNING AT LEAST 3 MONTHS WORTH OF STUDY***
