Personalised British English

Did you know that British English has its own unique charm? From “lift” instead of “elevator”, to “flat” instead of “apartment”, our dialect is full of character and personality.

If you’re looking for a way to add some style to your language, try embracing the nuances of British English. From the correct usage of words like “chips” (french fries) / “crisps” (chips) and “biscuits” (what Americans call cookies), to the delightful variations in vocabulary and slang, our English is truly one-of-a-kind.

So why settle for a generic, Americanized version of English when you can speak with style and panache? Embrace your inner Brit and give Personalised British English a go!

Hi, my name is Alex

I have a BA in English Language and English Language Teaching from Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, UK

In addition I hold a certificate for TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language for all age groups) as well as a CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) from Cambridge

While I have been teaching English face-to-face in classes in summer language schools I much prefer to teach one-on-one because that takes away the shyness people may have when they have to talk in front of other people. It also allows me to personalise my teaching to the individual learning needs and goals of my student.
