Hello!

Hi I am Damon and I want to help you be more confident and assured in your English. Together we will look to not only improve your English but have a better understanding of everyday English and if you want/need that business English we can add to your skill set.

I have lived and worked in 56 countries and taught English in most to supplement travelling income. On a more professional basis most of my teaching has been business related with a focus on the 'conversation'. Grammar will get you so far but the ability to hold a conversation even when you make a mistake will take you much further. I can teach a wide range of lessons whether it is working on grammar and language or formal business English. I cover how to write formal business letters and emails and how to present in a cohesive and confident manner.

Teaching Style

My main focus is on the 'conversation' the difference between a proficient English speaker and a good English speaker is confidence and self belief. I try to show my pupils that the personal understanding that we all make mistakes but we don't need to shutdown or feel so self-conscious. Technical knowledge only takes you so far when communicating in a new language
