Why choose me?
It is important that you take the time to choose a teacher who is right for you. Here are five good reason why you should choose me.
Many of my exam students have gone on to pass their Cambridge exams with the lessons, tips, and strategies I have given them. Furthermore, many of my students have successfully achieved their goals, from getting into a British university with IELTS, preparing for a face-to-face business meeting, or just improving their confidence when speaking. Your success is my goal!
My lessons focus on communication. This means that every lesson will include a bit of everything (Grammar, Vocabulary, Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening). You will be expected to communicate (and make mistakes!) from lesson 1. Frequent error correction and revision is a part of every lesson too. Making mistakes and learning from them are important in language learning as this is how we improve. In addition to this communicative approach, some lessons will also include projects and task based scenarios where you have to APPLY English and not simply memorise it.
However, I do not look only to the past. I am constantly learning new techniques and actively researching modern teaching methodologies. I take my job as an educator very seriously and I like to keep up to date with the latest research and continuing professional development.
In addition to making myself available for student queries, I also provide regular tutorials to monitor student progress and resolve doubts as lessons progress. I also conduct a FREE needs analysis with private students which helps me to plan and personalise lessons according to the needs and interests of each individual student before agreeing to teach them. This helps to ensure that I can offer the best service and support possible.
My students are very important to me, and I pride myself on my high-quality service and dedication to them. This is also why I make my pricing both transparent and fair. Fair for you = affordable lessons with a highly qualified and experienced native teacher, Fair for me = helps to pay the evil cuota de autonomo!
What do my Students Say?
With over 10 years teaching experience, I have helped a lot of students to achieve their goals. Here is what some of my recent students have said about me.
Richard has been my teacher for the last year, and I can tell he is a great teacher. You will have fun while learning! I've improved so much this year and I totally recommend learning with him.
Richard has been my teacher for two years and my level has increased a lot. He's a great teacher and he prepares lots of entertaining activities to make us learn in a fun way.
I highly recommend Richard as a teacher because he has a remarkable ability to motivate students and make the classes enjoyable. Last year he was my teacher, and due to his enthusiasm and his care about all his students, i insisted on attending his classes again this year. He is an unforgettable teacher!
Richard has been a great teacher. He knows the strengths and weaknesses of his students helping them to improve by putting a focus on their weaknesses. Furthermore, he makes the classes very fun and enjoyable, balancing between fun and the boring but necessary exercises.
Excellent teacher! He is always supporting us, makes instructions clear and is very patient! He makes learning English much more dynamic and most of all interactive. Very kind since the beginning!
Richards classes have been really useful for my progress. He knows how to catch the students attention in a funny way, creating a fun, comfortable and relaxed atmosphere during class which makes me want to come to class. You have also encouraged me to continue studying English next year!
I think Richard is a really good teacher because he makes classes enjoyable and fun, so that, the classes are very dynamic. I think I have learned a lot about every part of the official exam this year.
Richard is an excellent teacher. The effort he makes for each of his classes is incredible. Besides being an amazing person, he teaches very well and is always attentive to his students if they have any questions.
Thanks to Richard, a wonderful teacher, despite having a late afternoon schedule that left me very tired. Richard always managed to make the classes dynamic and fun. I highly recommend him as a teacher. Thank you for this year of teaching.
