Learn English with qualified, experienced English teacher

From 34.78 $ /h

Learn English with me, Lorenzo, a native English speaker from London with over 6 years English teaching experience and a CELTA qualification. I have had students of ages ranging from 10 to 70, and of levels ranging from A2 to C1, as well as native speakers taking English as a school subject. I also offer specialised English classes: business English, academic English, English for diplomacy, and English for psychology.

I attended an international school speaking Italian (bi-lingual proficiency) and French (B2) alongside English. Furthermore, I studied in Freiburg, Germany, and still teach many German students through Freiburg’s Carl-Schurz Haus German-American Institute. My familiarity with these languages allows me to offer explanations and translations tailored to the needs of my students.

About Me

I began tutoring as soon as I left school and it has been something which I have carried with me throughout my entire university life, from my time at Trinity College of Music studying classical piano performance, to my Liberal Arts and Sciences degrees - a total of 7 years. I quickly developed a passion for it as I realised my natural ability for interpersonal connection and for distilling complex information into concise, accessible explanations. I have been able to ensure a consistently positive experience for students ranging from the ages of 4 to over 60, and each new student I am able to help solidifies my commitment to teaching all the more.

When it comes to teaching piano, I bring to bear my classical training to ensure rigorous technical exercises, tempered with music theory or play-by-ear practice depending on the individual students' strengths and goals. As a composer with experience in jazz, I have tools for transforming music theory knowledge into compositional and improvisational ability, should the student want to explore these avenues.

The rest of my tutoring focuses on languages, namely English and Italian. When teaching these as school subjects, I bring to bear my techniques for literary analysis and my experience in breaking down complex texts to ensure students can work effectively. When teaching them as foreign languages instead, I tailor my lessons to whatever the individual goals of the students are. I am proficient in teaching both grammar and language skills, and I have had students ranging from A1 to B1 in Italian, and A2 to C1 in English.

English is one of the most popular languages in the world. In the modern age of globalism, it has been regarded as the most used language in terms of communication, let that be via emails, telephone calls, or letters.

My goal with this class is to make you comfortable in all forms of communication with this language, so you can communicate with colleagues, friends, or potential new friends in a social setting.

The main objective of this class is to completely remove the language barrier psychologically, so you can also think in English rather than just writing, listening, and expressing it.

I look forward to helping new students and contribute to their aspiration to learn a Language.

As a native speaker I would be glad to help anyone who is willing to improve their french and/or English . I can help with grammar as well as with pronunciation and conversation in general ! In the class i would prioritise conversation as it is the best way to learn a language .
As I speak English fluently I can help the student have a better understanding of the different concepts and subjects.

English is arguably the most spoken language worldwide, and what's better than being able to communicate with millions of people? Your level of English will improve drastically only if you keep practicing and speaking, and I offer exactly that in my classes. You'll get a personalised plan of what you need in order to make progress in the shortest time possible.

Qualified Teacher in English As a Second Language. I have experience with a wide range of levels and ages, most importantly between 8 and 17 years old. Tutoring has provided me a particular insight of teaching English, where I adapt to the client's needs.
If the needs is rather to learn day-to-day English or French, I rather practice through games, interactive activities and real-life examples. Most importantly, I priviledge conversation tasks.

Hi! I am a 20 year old native English speaker from Australia. Currently I am undertaking a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, therefore, I can offer constructed classes adapted to the students strengths and weakness, provide support and assistance in grasping complex English language concepts (ie. grammar, punctuation, spelling, writing), and provide feedback in work/assignments. I am here to help!:)

I am currently studying psychology in English and I am looking forward to having you as a student! Explaining complicated concepts in a simple way is one of my favorite things. I started doing this at school with my friends and have been doing it as a tutor for over 4 years now. I focus on what you need at that exact moment and I also like to use metaphors and mnemonics to make the topic understandable.

Dear language lovers,

WHAT I OFFER
I provide French and English lessons for all levels and domains,whether business, academic, social, or simply for the joy of learning a rich and fascinating language. I can help you develop your reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills in both French and English. From grammar and syntax to vocabulary enrichment, I use a personalized, pedagogical approach based on your individual needs and shared learning goals we define together.

MY EXPERIENCE
As a native French speaker, I know the beauty and poetry of the language inside and out, and I’m excited to share it with anyone curious to dive in. Since high school, I’ve offered private tutoring to students aged 10 to 17, helping them with everything from grammar worksheets and book reviews to philosophy essays and creative writing assignments.

As for English, I was raised in an international school environment where English was a core part of my education from childhood through high school. I earned my TOEFL certificate before beginning my current bachelor’s studies, which are entirely in English. I've also taught English with a focus on pronunciation, grammar, syntax, and practical communication skills.

TUTORING SET-UP
When tutoring, I place strong emphasis on tracking progress, often by assigning homework (if agreed upon) and creating clear, structured plans to help students stay on track. I’m always flexible and happy to adapt to each learner’s feedback and preferences to make lessons as enjoyable and engaging as possible.

I offer lessons online or in person—either at my place or yours. Thanks to my bilingual upbringing (with a German mother) and my French-German high school diploma (AbiBac), I can also provide instruction in German if needed.

Looking forward to sharing the joy of language learning with you!
