Learn English for all levels of experience from 'Hello' to 'Goodbye' and everything in-between

Hello, my name is Jack, a native English speaker originally from Manchester, England. I have experience teaching English as a second language both online to students in China.And in schools in Italy.
I have a diploma in International Business Management from Northumbria University, and studied abroad in Sweden and Portugal and therefore know how important and daunting learning a language can be.

I specialise in teaching English as a second language. My aim is to be the lessons fun and engaging. Depending on what you want to learn we can focus on grammar, sentence structure, building vocabulary of a particular topic or start at the basics learning phonics.

If you would like support and tutoring on homework or topics you are studying in school I can support students with this and help them achieve in school.

I can also teach Business English and help you prepare for a presentation or interview or help with your studies.

My class would be perfect for either adults or children wanting to improve their oral and written English skills. Each class will be personalised to your needs and abilities with the first class used to evaluate your level and how we can best use further classes to improve your abilities and see results.

About Me

Students learn best when they are engaged. Boring lessons where students sit and listen do not work especially for learning languages. As a result my lessons are fun and engaging and done entirely in English. This forces students to listen and think for themselves to understand what is been taught in a foreign language.
Teaching is done through a variety of activities and playing educational games to help understand new vocabulary.
For older students a more grown up approach is taken to make sure students are treated properly and shown respect. However, after the first lesson an appropriate balance can be found.

Outside of teaching I like to travel and meet new cultures and try new food! I like to go to the movies and to music festivals with my friends and enjoy watching football!

Education

Northumbria Univeristy (2018) International Business Management with study abroad in Sweden and Portugal. This diploma allowed me to study in different countries and meet people from all of the world. The challenging nature of this course forced me to be structured and disciplined to achieve the second highest grade possible.

Jack has a great style of teaching! He is very precise in assessing the student's level and he plans the class structure accordingly. From the very beginning, Jack has ensured me that teaching another language is more than possible even if you don’t have a language in common - he is the prime example of an excellent teacher!
I'm very exited with teacher like Jack! Thanks Jack !
Very nice course with Jack and our son enjoys it very much.
thank you
Exactly as his presentation says here https://www.apprentus.com/en/private-lessons/lisbon/tutoring/english/english-all-levels-experience-from-hello-t

Melissa
Native English Speaker Cambridge International Educator
I am a certified Canadian educator, and my teaching experience includes Primary Years Cambridge curriculum in English Language Arts, English Literature, Maths, Humanities and Global Perspectives for both Primary Years (Grades 3,4,6 and Lower Secondary. I also have experience teaching Personal, Social, Health Education (PSHE) as well as Physical Education, and life skills for classes in both Primary, Lower and Upper Secondary. My education philosophy is rooted in pedagogy which is focused on the empowerment of children, teachers and parents to support the full development of children and assist in maintaining a joyful environment in which children can thrive, learn and realize their potential in a fun way. Why is this important? Well, firstly, a happier childhood in which children are equipped with a keen sense of themselves can help them to better transition into adulthood. What I have realized is that a balance is required between academic learning and life skills which includes social, emotional learning. My work involves supporting a teaching approach which focuses on student and parent engagement working together to support the child's individual needs. In the classroom, it is supporting children to be engaged and motivated learners by focusing on a truly student-centered approach at their pace and level of understanding and moving towards their learning goals step by step. This approach not only builds tremendous self-confidence but also boosts the child's understanding that they are cared for and their personal identity is more than just their academic abilities; supporting the whole development of the child. Upon recently completing a Masters of Arts in Childhood studies and Early Years, my autoethnographic dissertation on supporting well-being in international schools with third culture kids demonstrates that there is a need for a new approach towards well-being in schools. Well-being support is necessary for all children and cannot be compartmentalized but requires an integrated and unique approach. The goal of my teaching approach is to support students to have a happy childhood by helping schools to support their student’s well-being in a more integrated and engaging way since our approaches towards children greatly impacts their personal development.

Kiara
English language and Conversational English Teacher
I would like to help you learn and practice the English language. At our first lesson together we will establish the level of English that you are at and what your learning style is. From there I will structure lessons accordingly and make sure that they are suited to your interests. I want you to enjoy learning English. For conversational lessons, we will talk and I will help correct your sentences at the end. For General English lessons, we can focus on grammar, punctuation, reading, writing, pronunciation, sentence forming, and anything else that you would like to know. I can also assist you in writing CV's, e-mails, and letters. I am also able to teach business English, if you have a meeting or interview coming up I can help you prepare. I can speak a very basic level of Portuguese so if you don't speak any English that is no problem at all.
