Learn Business English for Better Communication and Confidence

Do you wish to be a better communicator with your international colleagues and peers?
Do you dread that presentation or conference that you have been asked to head?
Are you hoping for promotion or even a career change?
Or, do you simply wish to become more confident overall - in the office as well as professional social settings?

I can help you achieve this.

You will follow and be guided through professional lesson plans that follow a structure of vocabulary building, reading (out loud), comprehension and discussion. Occasionally they may come with an additional audio or video file to enhance your listening skills.

Conversation - both business and general, is a key focus focus, so making full answers is very much encouraged. We always share a two-way conversation or a few conversations, stating our views and opinions.

I correct both verbally and within the Skype chat panel so that you can see as well as hear the correction. I also want you to ask as many questions as necessary about the lesson as a whole or about the exercises posed. Communication is very important for without it I cannot properly help you.

About Me

I am a native U.K expat living in Cyprus; currently in the Famagusta region.
I was born and raised in London - a city that I also love, though moved away as an adult and have travelled a lot since that time; working and living overseas.

I enjoy reading, writing and listening to music. I have written short stories and one longer manuscript but have never been published. I started writing posts / articles on LinkedIn which are connected to mental health. I also enjoy walking, meditation and, when finances allow, travelling. Indeed, I have been to a few countries in Europe, in addition to further places including China (on an organised tour) and Japan (a self-planned trip). Finally, I am an enthusiastic photographer of sea- and landscapes, architecture and graffiti / wall art.

I have a passion for mental health - the brain and how it works; it is fascinating to me how although the brain is commonly structured, it does not work in the same way for two people. We each are individuals - and this is how I see my students; unique in how they learn. Holistic therapies are another passion; I hold Certificates for Counselling: Depression & Anxiety Management; NLP and Mindfulness (among others).

I became a TEFL teacher quite by accident, when I was looking for work that would mean something; where I am helping others, while also offering opportunities. I have never looked back - I really enjoy my work, meeting new people; learning about where they come from, what they do and why they want to learn English.

Prior to TEFL, I worked in the U.K Legal sector for 16 years as a Legal Secretary-Assistant. My professional (office, leisure, hospitality and Care Home) career is the main reason I focus lessons towards adults, because they often get 'lost' or forgotten in the context of education. However, they are generally so much fun to teach English too; when they come back to you one day and say they 'bossed' the presentation they had been dreading or they have gotten the promotion/new job or have booked their first holiday to an English speaking country - it makes what I do rewarding and I feel like a proud parent.

As a tutor, I would probably say I am more of a coach; someone who supports my students at all levels, letting them have input into the lessons; understanding (mostly) how they learn - their stronger and weaker points. Sharing the bad days as well as those 'eureka' moments.

Budget English Language lessons from a certified and experienced (5+ years) teacher.
In this age, English is THE language of the academic world. I have 5 years of teaching experience. Furthermore, I have 3 years of experience teaching English language, especially to Turkish-speaking students, so I have a solid background in the subject and can provide tailored lessons that address the particular linguistic and cultural requirements of Turkish speakers. Moreover, I have 1 year experience of teaching Turkish language as well. As a devoted teacher, I'm committed to creating a curriculum that develops language skills of the students while also encouraging critical thinking, effective communication, and a profound enjoyment of literature. I am excited to establish a dynamic and welcoming classroom where students feel inspired to discover the marvels of the English language. Using engaging dialogues and imaginative assignments, I hope to encourage students to appreciate the beauty of English language. That in turn would allow the students to pursue better careers where English language is mandatory. Moreover, that would also help the students to easily learn about (and subsequently adapt to) new technologies as most academic research is published in English language. Additional note for Turkish speakers: Bu çağda İngilizce akademik dünyanın dilidir. 5 yıllık öğretmenlik tecrübem var. Ayrıca, özellikle Türkçe konuşan öğrencilere İngilizce öğretme konusunda 3 yıllık deneyimim var, dolayısıyla bu konuda sağlam bir geçmişim var ve Türkçe konuşanların belirli dilsel ve kültürel gereksinimlerini karşılayan özel dersler verebilirim. Ayrıca 1 yıllık Türkçe öğretmenliği deneyimim de bulunmaktadır. Kendini adamış bir öğretmen olarak, öğrencilerin dil becerilerini geliştirirken aynı zamanda eleştirel düşünmeyi, etkili iletişimi ve edebiyattan derin bir keyif almayı teşvik eden bir müfredat oluşturmaya kararlıyım. Öğrencilerin İngiliz dilinin güzel yönlerini keşfetme konusunda ilham aldıkları dinamik ve davetkar bir sınıf kurmaktan heyecan duyuyorum. İlgi çekici diyaloglar ve yaratıcı ödevler kullanarak öğrencileri İngilizce dilinin güzelliğini takdir etmeye teşvik etmeyi umuyorum. Bu da öğrencilerin İngilizce dilinin zorunlu olduğu yerlerde daha iyi kariyerlere yönelmelerine olanak tanıyacaktır. Üstelik bu, çoğu akademik araştırmanın İngilizce dilinde yayınlanması nedeniyle öğrencilerin yeni teknolojiler hakkında kolayca bilgi edinmelerine (ve daha sonra bunlara uyum sağlamalarına) da yardımcı olacaktır.
