Hassan Torkia

Hi! I’m Hassan, a friendly, approachable and patient English tutor who wants to help you become a more confident and natural English speaker.

My lessons focus primarily on conversational English, helping you improve your fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary and understanding of everyday expressions and idioms.

A little about me

I have eight years of professional experience working in British policing, including emergency response and close protection. Throughout my career, communication has been at the heart of everything I’ve done. I’ve worked with people from different cultures, backgrounds and nationalities, developing strong interpersonal and communication skills.

I’m also of Egyptian heritage and speak conversational Arabic, so I understand some of the challenges that come with learning and communicating in another language.

What can you expect from my lessons?

I believe the best way to improve your English is to actually use it! My lessons are relaxed, interactive and centred around real conversations rather than simply memorising grammar rules.

Depending on your goals, we can work on:

• Everyday conversational English and speaking naturally.
• Building confidence and improving fluency.
• Expanding your vocabulary and learning useful expressions.
• Understanding common English idioms, phrases and slang.
• Improving pronunciation and sentence structure.
• Practising conversations about travel, work, hobbies, culture and everyday life.

My teaching style

Every student is different, so I’ll adapt our lessons to your level, interests and personal goals.

I encourage you to speak as much as possible, make mistakes without feeling embarrassed and ask as many questions as you like. I’ll provide constructive feedback, explain unfamiliar expressions and help you find more natural ways to communicate.

Whether you’re looking to improve your English for travelling, work, socialising or simply feeling more confident when speaking, I’d love to help you along the way.

Let’s make learning English enjoyable, practical and something you genuinely look forward to!
