About Me
Are you familiar with English legal terminology? Does legal terminology feel like a foreign language in itself? As a qualified Lawyer and Tutor in Law, this is where I can help you! Often people get stuck and flustered when faced with legal correspondence. I can teach you to learn and translate this for yourself into easily understandable English. Please schedule a time to meet with me on Social Media.

My expertise is in tutoring English, Law and Social from infant, GCSE, AS to undergraduate. I want students to enjoy coming to my classes and contribute freely without feeling pressured. My goal is to get the students to think about the topic and formulate opinions and discuss them openly. Homework is set after each lesson with feedback given afterwards.
The English class concentrates on language skills, grammar, reading, pronunciation and sentence formation with the emphases on practice using English, not just in class but also at home and with friends to build confidence.
It does not matter at what level you are in English as each class is carefully planned around your needs.
In the Law class I concentrate mostly on GCSE, AS and Undergraduate. I use a variety of teaching methods as the subject is quite theoretical. Exercises such as mock trials, gathering evidence and the use of case law to name but a few. These classes are enjoyable and requires the student to engage fully.
The Political Science classes are taught from GCSE to Post Graduate level and covers a specific country and it's dynamics. My lessons focus on the United Kingdom, Europe, America and Russia. At these lessons you will be able to compare and contrast different types of systems, their methodology on social policy, foreign policy as well as with other countries. You will watch films, engage in debates and participate both individually and in groups. Most of all all my lessons are fun!!

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
