Connecting Across Cultures: The Practical Use of English

Àpd 103.46 € /h

English is widely used as a common language in international business, education, and online communication. For students as young as 6, learning English opens doors to knowledge, as many educational resources, websites, and international programmes use English as a main language. It helps young learners access information, build confidence, and communicate with peers from different parts of the world.

For adults, including those up to 65 and beyond, English remains equally important. It supports career development, travel, and lifelong learning. In many workplaces, English is used for communication, meetings, and professional writing. Being able to understand and use English can improve job opportunities and make it easier to work in international environments.

Beyond work and study, English also enriches daily life. It allows people to enjoy films, books, news, and online content in their original form. Most importantly, it helps build connections—whether through friendships, cultural exchange, or global collaboration.

In a rapidly changing world, English is not just a subject to learn, but a practical tool that supports communication, understanding, and personal growth at every stage of life.

Présentation

I am an experienced English language educator with a solid track record in higher education, responsible for designing and leading programmes that respond to changing learner and institutional needs. I take a practical approach to curriculum development, classroom delivery, and learner support, with a clear focus on outcomes and standards.

Before moving into education, I worked in marketing management and corporate communications within established financial institutions. That experience shaped my discipline in planning, communication, and stakeholder management; skills I continue to apply when leading classes, coordinating programmes, and working with colleagues across functions.

My transition into education was a deliberate career decision. It has strengthened my resilience, judgment, and ability to work with people from different backgrounds and at different stages of life. I value consistency, professionalism, and steady improvement in daily work.

Education

University of Cambridge
Cambridge ESOL Teaching Awards – Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (2010)

University of Leicester
Master of Arts (M.A.) Mass Communications (2005)

Expérience / Qualifications

I bring over two decades of experience teaching Academic and Business English across a wide range of educational settings. My work includes designing curricula, developing teaching materials, and delivering courses tailored to different learner goals. I have worked with highly diverse groups, from secondary school students preparing for further study to professionals seeking career advancement and retirees learning for personal enrichment. This diversity has shaped my ability to adjust teaching strategies, content, and pace to suit varying abilities and expectations.

In addition, I am currently a columnist for a Chinese newspaper, where I write a regular column aimed at motivating and teaching everyday English to Hong Kong primary school students. This role allows me to translate language concepts into accessible and engaging content for younger learners.

My teaching approach combines practical communication skills with a strong academic foundation, ensuring that learners can apply English effectively in both study and workplace contexts. I place particular emphasis on clarity, structure, and purposeful language use.

Earlier in my career, I gained experience in marketing and corporate communications within the financial sector. This professional background continues to inform my teaching, especially in Business English, where real-world relevance, precision, and audience awareness are essential.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

Hello everyone,
My name is Phillip. I am an experienced, native bilingual (USA/Switzerland) English teacher. Today, I am pleased to guide you in your learning from my office located in the wild and inspiring setting of western Ireland.

With many years of experience as a private tutor, I work with students from all backgrounds. However, over time, I have developed an approach that is particularly appreciated by seniors and retirees. Why? Because I am convinced that learning a language at this stage of life should first and foremost be a shared pleasure, a window onto the world, and a wonderful way to keep the mind sharp and curious.
My approach: Trust and kindness above all

Many of us have somewhat rigid memories of school learning. With me, forget the stress of mistakes or tedious grammar. My primary goal is to restore your confidence. We progress at your pace, with a gentle, patient, and personalized teaching approach. Whether you're starting from scratch or simply want to refresh your old school memories, I adapt completely to your needs.

What we can explore together:
- Travel English: So that your next trip abroad is synonymous with serenity (getting around, ordering in restaurants, communicating with locals without apprehension).

-Maintaining family ties: Ideal if you have bilingual grandchildren or grandchildren living abroad and you want to share more with them.

-Conversation & Culture: Discuss current events, literature, history or life in Ireland, while enjoying my clear and easy-to-understand native accent.

-Brain gymnastics: Using English as a fun and stimulating tool to maintain memory and cognitive plasticity.

Why choose me?
As a dual American and Swiss national living in Ireland, I bring a unique cultural richness to your life. I have a mastery of all the nuances of the English language, but I also have a perfect understanding of French culture and structure.

Practical and technological aspects:

We'll work together via Zoom or Google Meet, very simple and reliable tools. If you're worried about the technology, don't be: I'll guide you step by step during our first session so you feel completely comfortable on screen. It's much simpler than it seems!

Join me for a friendly and engaging experience, blending Swiss rigor, American optimism, and the legendary warmth of Ireland. Let's transform your English practice into a truly enriching human adventure.
Nice to meet you,

Phillip
