About Mark
I am a highly experienced English language educator with nearly 30 years of teaching experience in the UK and internationally. I hold a Doctorate in Education (EdD), an MSc in Teaching English for Specific Purposes, and a Trinity Licentiate Diploma in TESOL. As a Senior Fellow of Advance HE (SFHEA), I have taught learners of all ages and proficiency levels in universities, colleges, schools, and online environments.
My expertise includes General English, Academic English, IELTS preparation, Business English, English for Specific Purposes (ESP), and examination preparation. I create engaging, learner-centred lessons that are tailored to each student's individual goals, learning style, and pace. I use interactive teaching methods, clear explanations, structured practice, and constructive feedback to help students build confidence and achieve measurable progress.
Having worked with students from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds across Europe and Asia, I understand the challenges of learning English as a foreign language and provide a supportive, motivating environment where learners feel comfortable developing their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills.
Whether a student wants to improve conversational fluency, prepare for an exam, succeed in academic studies, or enhance professional communication, I am committed to helping them reach their goals through personalised, effective, and enjoyable lessons.

My lessons are tailored to the individual needs, goals, and learning style of each student. Whether you want to improve your conversational English, prepare for IELTS or another examination, develop your academic writing skills, or enhance your Business English, I will create a personalised learning plan designed to help you achieve measurable progress.
Lessons are interactive, supportive, and engaging. I typically begin by identifying your strengths and areas for development, then design activities that target your specific needs. A typical lesson may include speaking practice, vocabulary development, grammar improvement, pronunciation work, listening and reading activities, and guided writing tasks. I provide clear explanations, practical examples, and constructive feedback to help you build confidence and accuracy.
I have nearly 30 years of experience teaching English in universities, colleges, schools, and online environments across the UK, Europe, and Asia. My qualifications include a Doctorate in Education (EdD), an MSc in Teaching English for Specific Purposes, and a Trinity Licentiate Diploma in TESOL. I am also a Senior Fellow of Advance HE (SFHEA).
I believe that students learn best when lessons are relevant, enjoyable, and focused on real-world communication. I use authentic materials, discussion-based activities, and learner-centred techniques to keep lessons motivating and effective.
Whether you are a beginner, an advanced learner, a school student, a university student, or a working professional, I will provide a friendly and encouraging learning environment where you can develop your English skills and achieve your personal, academic, or professional goals.
