Hello there!

My name is Tommy, I'm a 24 year old from Dublin, Ireland with a degree in Law & French from Galway University. I speak English, Irish and French in that order.

I currently work as a web journalist for the 'Dublin People' news agency. My articles are published weekly on a wide range of issues local to Dublin. As I can do this job part-time from my laptop, I am spending some time in Montpellier to explore and experience something new.

I believe my passion for good English could be helpful to French students who are already comfortable with basic grammar. My classes will focus on honing the following skills;

1. Pronunciation, Elocution and Fluency of Speech.
2 .Listening Comprehension.
3. Writing Techniques and Expressive Language.
4. Essay Writing and Structuring.
5. CV Preparation and Job/Course Application.

Being a sociable person, I would hope to make my classes an enjoyable experience for my students. I will make use of a wide array of teaching methods, including using examples of entertaining writing and testing listening skills on the most difficult of native accents.
