Tom Fassnidge

I’ve been teaching English for almost 20 years, working with learners from more than 50 countries — from complete beginners to near-fluent speakers. My lessons are always tailored to the needs and interests of each student. Whether you're looking to build fluency, pass an exam, improve your professional communication, or just feel more confident, I’ll help you get there.

Lessons are built around real communication. I focus on helping you speak naturally and clearly, using accurate grammar and useful vocabulary. I’ll encourage you to ask questions and take risks — that’s where the best learning happens. I also give lots of feedback, so you’ll always know what you’re doing well and how you can improve.

We might use short texts, video clips, audio, or real-world tasks depending on your goals. I often design my own materials to make sure everything we use is relevant and effective. If you're preparing for an exam like IELTS, Cambridge, or OET, I can give you focused, practical practice with expert guidance.

I’ve worked with business professionals from industries like healthcare, engineering, marketing, education, and finance, so I’m comfortable helping you polish your English for meetings, emails, presentations or interviews.

Most of all, I want lessons to be enjoyable and something you look forward to. I aim to make every session dynamic, useful, and fun. My students often tell me they learn more because I genuinely love language — and it shows.

Let’s talk about your goals and start building a plan that works for you.
