Mike
Hello!
Improve your English through engaging, enjoyable conversations. I have a clear, easy-to-understand British accent and a calm, patient teaching style. My lessons focus on building confidence, fluency and natural communication.
I am originally from Brighton, England, and now live in Colombia. For more than seven years, I have taught students from around the world, helping them improve their English through clear guidance, practical support and natural, enjoyable conversation. My classes are relaxed and conversational, with plenty of opportunity to practise the English you actually want to use. We can talk about everyday life, work, travel, culture, current interests or simply whatever gets you speaking with greater confidence and fluency. Alongside teaching English, I also work in mindfulness, breathwork and wellbeing coaching. If these subjects interest you, we can use our English classes to explore topics such as mindfulness, mindset, habits, stress, healthy living and personal development. It can be a great way to practise meaningful, real-world English while having conversations that go a little deeper than the usual textbook topics. Outside teaching, I enjoy fitness, cooking, studying, music, football and spending time with my family. You can also find some of my mindfulness, breathwork and wellbeing sessions on YouTube through Niyama Wellbeing.

Teaching Style
My teaching style is relaxed, friendly and structured around your personal goals. I aim to create a comfortable space where you feel confident to speak, make mistakes and develop your English naturally. We can work on conversation, fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, reading or interview preparation. I also particularly enjoy conversations around mindfulness, wellbeing, habits and personal development, so if these subjects interest you, we can use them as a natural way to practise and develop your English. If you choose, we can even incorporate simple breathing or mindfulness practices into the session, using English throughout. Whatever your interests or goals, I’m happy to adapt our conversations and sessions around what will be most useful and enjoyable for you.
