About Michael
I’m a passionate and supportive English teacher who enjoys helping learners build both their language skills and their confidence. I believe the best learning happens when students feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions and expressing themselves, so I aim to create a friendly, patient and encouraging environment in every lesson.
Having lived abroad and studied foreign languages myself, I understand the challenges of learning another language and the difference a good teacher can make. I adapt my lessons to each learner’s needs, interests and goals, and I always try to make English practical, engaging and relevant to real life.
I’m passionate about language, music, history and sport, and I love getting to know my students and using their interests to create lessons that they genuinely enjoy. Most importantly, I want my students to leave each lesson feeling that they have learned something useful and are a little more confident using English.

Every student is different, so I tailor my lessons around your individual goals, interests and level of English. Whether you want to improve your speaking, build your vocabulary, work on pronunciation or simply become more confident using English, we will focus on what will be most useful for you.
A typical lesson might include:
Warm-up & conversation – We’ll start with some relaxed conversation to practise speaking and get you comfortable using English.
Focus for the lesson – We’ll work on a specific area of English, such as vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation or a particular communication skill.
Practical practice – You’ll have plenty of opportunities to use what you’ve learned through conversation, role-plays, activities and real-life situations.
Feedback & correction – I’ll give you helpful, constructive feedback throughout the lesson and highlight areas where you can improve.
Review & next steps – We’ll finish by reviewing what you’ve learned and identifying what to work on next.
Lessons are one hour long, and I provide written feedback after every session, including useful vocabulary, corrections and suggestions for further practice.

Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
I know Michael very well and can really recommend him as an English teacher. He is very friendly and patient and makes you feel comfortable speaking, even when you make mistakes. He also knows a lot about Edinburgh and British culture so you learn more than just English, which makes lessons more interesting. He has also learnt other languages himself and speaks some French, German and Japanese, so he understands what it is like learning a new language. He is easy to talk to, encouraging and has a good sense of humour.
Michael is a wonderful person, a great teacher and very enthusiastic. He is kind, caring and professional, with a ready smile and fabulous sense of humour.
