Hi there, I’m Matty! I’ve been teaching English for over ten years, starting in a Beijing high school and moving on to one-to-one lessons across London. I’m TEFL certified and studied English Literature at university. I also work as a radio producer, so I care how English actually sounds: clear, natural and confident.

Hi there, I’m Matty! I’ve been teaching English for over ten years, starting in a Beijing high school and moving on to one-to-one lessons across London. I’m TEFL certified and studied English Literature at university. I also work as a radio producer, so I care how English actually sounds: clear, natural and confident.
How my lessons work:
We start with a short chat about your goals and level, so every lesson is built around you. Most of the lesson is real conversation, because that’s how you become fluent. I correct pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary as we go, without breaking your flow. You leave each session with a short list of things to practise before next time. Beginners are welcome. For exams like IELTS and Cambridge, we use real exam-style tasks.
What I’m like: relaxed, honest and patient, with a dry sense of humour. I’ll tell you what you’re doing well and exactly what to fix.
