***All lessons are remote through online platforms. Learn in safety with a professional.***

Hi there! My name is Pan and I am a native English speaker and have been a qualified teacher of English since 2009. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Modern Language Studies, an English teaching qualification (CELTA) and a Master's Degree in Education.

What I do:

I help ambitious professionals improve their speaking skills and go from "okay at English" to "great at English".

My speciality is helping Finnish speakers improve their spoken English communication skills to sound more natural, speak more confidently and wow their audiences. This could mean working on your ability to share your opinions and make your arguments more persuasive, or by giving amazing presentations and impressing your boss' boss. I can show you how to improve your vocabulary quickly, sound more natural and feel more confident communicating in English.

How it works:

I only work with the people I can help the most. We discuss your goals and make a plan for how to accomplish them in a realistic timeframe. We meet online and work intensively on your communication skills, speaking and pronunciation to increase your confidence and make sure you present yourself professionally and impressively in English.

What next?

If you want to speak English more fluently, naturally and confidently, get in touch with me right now to identify your needs and see how I can help you improve. After that you can decide what you want to do.

I am happy to answer any questions you might have on here

Here are testimonials from two of my current clients:

Pan has helped me find the biggest challenges in my use of English. Through exercise and discussions with Pan, my active vocabulary has grown and I have learned to trust myself as a speaker. With the help of increased self-confidence, I am now able to achieve business goals and enjoy business meetings also in English.

I recommend Pan as a teacher to anyone who wants to develop their English - regardless of your starting level.

-a CEO

I have worked with Pan for six months now and the co-operation still continues. When we started, I was really unsure about my spoken English. Especially pronouncing felt uncomfortable and even a bit embarrassing. The progress in only six months has been unbelievable. I have gained a lot of confidence and have already done lots of meetings, for example job interviews as a hiring manager, with people around the world. For me, it feels like I would have got a completely different life when all the possibilities in English are open.

The best way to learn to speak English is to speak English. I can’t thank and praise Pan enough, and I can definitely recommend him to everyone in all roles (from Trainee to C-level positions). Thank you, Pan!

-a CFO

Thanks for reading this far and have a great day,

For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above.

You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students.

My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals.

In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience.

What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless!

In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years.

I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

- Personalized approach: Courses are adapted to the student's level, with individualized monitoring. This includes practical exercises, targeted revisions, and explanations adapted to each learning pace.
- Progressive objectives: we set short and long-term objectives together to motivate the student and measure their progress.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Typical sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to introduce and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.
- Regular monitoring: I plan regular assessments to adjust the learning method and adapt the pace of the lessons.

This chapter explains the Arabic language curriculum for the Gulf countries in a simplified and comprehensive way suitable for all student levels. The lesson employs modern teaching methods that combine detailed explanations with direct interaction with students, focusing on building their language skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

My passion for teaching Arabic stems from my deep belief in its importance as part of our cultural identity, and my desire to help students understand its grammar and enjoy its beauty. I use motivational methods to engage students in the lesson, such as interactive quizzes, practical examples, and engaging short stories that touch on their daily lives.

In this lesson, students will learn to analyze and understand texts accurately, along with grammar and syntax skills in an organized and easy way. I also make sure to enhance their self-confidence through practical applications and exercises that support repetition and practice.

I aim to make Arabic a fun subject rather than a challenge, and I work to provide a positive learning environment that helps students reach their full potential. In addition, I provide personalized advice to each student to improve their level according to their individual needs.

This lesson is not just an explanation of the course, but rather a journey to discover the beauty of the Arabic language and communicate effectively through it.

This online English class supports students in developing strong communication skills, academic confidence, and clear expression in both spoken and written English. I have worked with learners from diverse countries and language backgrounds, helping them move beyond textbook knowledge into practical, confident use of English.

Lessons focus on reading comprehension, structured writing, vocabulary development, grammar accuracy, pronunciation, and speaking fluency. Students preparing for school assessments or international exams such as IELTS receive targeted support designed to strengthen performance and reduce exam anxiety.

I tailor each session to the student’s level, learning style, and goals. Some learners need help organizing their thoughts in writing, others need to build confidence speaking — my role is to identify those needs and guide them step by step.

My approach combines structured lessons, guided practice, and consistent feedback, helping students grow in both skill and confidence.

Fall in love with the beauty of Italian language 😍 Learn practical vocabulary and grammar concepts before you travel to your dream holiday destination 🍕 Discover by yourself the unforgettable reactions of Italian people when you speak their language and become an instant friend🤌

It is absolutely possible to achieve from the very beginning. By introducing simple, intuitive grammar and new words at the same time, you can quickly broaden your understanding of daily language and form your own sentences 📈 English shares many grammar concepts with Italian, what makes it especially pleasant to learn and teach. There are a lot of words that are almost the same as English equivalents like arrivare - which basically means to arrive.

In my classes we play interactive games that boost acquisition of new vocabulary and spend time in a fun and friendly way. If you wish, I may give some advice on where to travel in Italy based on my personal experience 🌍

If you'd like, I can also send you the materials that we are going to cover during the lesson in advance, so you can have them printed if you prefer to work on paper copies rather than Microsoft Word files.

I'm looking forward to seeing you on our online classes!
