Hello!

Hi there, my name is Teacher Gerry. I'm a native English speaker from Ireland and TEFL certified with lots of experience teaching students of all different age groups and from different cultural backgrounds in Asia and in Spain. My classes are professional and good fun. I can build up a rapport with anyone and look forward to helping you with improving your English communicative skills. Thanking you, Teacher Gerry.

I was born in Leeds, England and my family moved to Ireland when I was a boy. When I left school I originally worked as a Maintenance Fitter, which involves maintaining and repairing industrial machines in factories. In recent years I became involved in teaching English, I've taught students from Europe, the Middle East and Asia. My classes are professional but relaxed, interesting and fun. I have prepared students for Cambridge exams and I also teach business English.

Teaching Style

My teaching styles are (CLT) Communicative language teaching and (TPR) Total physical response. I encourage all students to speak as much as possible, this is very important even for new learners as it helps them to become more confident using English as a second language.
