The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello everyone,
My name is Phillip. I am an experienced, native bilingual (USA/Switzerland) English teacher. Today, I am pleased to guide you in your learning from my office located in the wild and inspiring setting of western Ireland.

With many years of experience as a private tutor, I work with students from all backgrounds. However, over time, I have developed an approach that is particularly appreciated by seniors and retirees. Why? Because I am convinced that learning a language at this stage of life should first and foremost be a shared pleasure, a window onto the world, and a wonderful way to keep the mind sharp and curious.
My approach: Trust and kindness above all

Many of us have somewhat rigid memories of school learning. With me, forget the stress of mistakes or tedious grammar. My primary goal is to restore your confidence. We progress at your pace, with a gentle, patient, and personalized teaching approach. Whether you're starting from scratch or simply want to refresh your old school memories, I adapt completely to your needs.

What we can explore together:
- Travel English: So that your next trip abroad is synonymous with serenity (getting around, ordering in restaurants, communicating with locals without apprehension).

-Maintaining family ties: Ideal if you have bilingual grandchildren or grandchildren living abroad and you want to share more with them.

-Conversation & Culture: Discuss current events, literature, history or life in Ireland, while enjoying my clear and easy-to-understand native accent.

-Brain gymnastics: Using English as a fun and stimulating tool to maintain memory and cognitive plasticity.

Why choose me?
As a dual American and Swiss national living in Ireland, I bring a unique cultural richness to your life. I have a mastery of all the nuances of the English language, but I also have a perfect understanding of French culture and structure.

Practical and technological aspects:

We'll work together via Zoom or Google Meet, very simple and reliable tools. If you're worried about the technology, don't be: I'll guide you step by step during our first session so you feel completely comfortable on screen. It's much simpler than it seems!

Join me for a friendly and engaging experience, blending Swiss rigor, American optimism, and the legendary warmth of Ireland. Let's transform your English practice into a truly enriching human adventure.
Nice to meet you,

Phillip

English classes have become a negative obligation for many people. With my classes, I aim to make learning a new language fun. Both children and adults will find in these classes a space not only for improvement and learning, but also for confidence and positivity.
Mistakes are not something to be afraid of; without them, we could not say that we have learned.
In these classes, I will use my knowledge and tools to help you: start learning English, improve your level, or simply maintain your fluency. Of course, I will also adapt to your needs, always striving for innovation and the best approach to ensure you have a pleasant experience and associate learning with something positive.
Finally, I offer online classes from the comfort of your home, to make it even easier for you to improve or learn. I understand chaotic schedules and the difficulty of getting around, no worries!
Welcome and...
Let's begin!

English language has become more than just a language. It is a presumed matter of modern culture and a basic tool for - everything. I am offering this language part, as a person who was born in UK, with a tone of clear and precise standard British accent (Received pronunciation, King'sEnglish, Oxford English) and with a sound of British culture and history. I act therefore as an accent coach as well along with teaching grammar and conversation practice.
Since I am a Croat (and have spoken both Croatian and English since birth) I offer Croatian language classes as well and up to the very same high standards (grammar explanations, conversation practice and the standard accent guidance). So I speak Croatian using the language standard accent as spoken in the State official informing services, Universities and Institutions.
Maths is the third subject I can help you with and which I deal with (as an Architect I have studied Maths as well). There are three things I'd like to say... - Maths is a game, using brain gymnastics, a responsible discipline applied everywhere, universaly used and one of the most important ones, but still a game and with similar joy it keeps inside of itself released when one is winning or solvng a Maths problem... - the most beautiful and elegant and almost always the shortest, as so, solution is - the best one - and that is both for what I mostly seek for and teach for regarding Maths.. - and third but not less important is a message - Maths is actually more simple than one, who fears, often thinks it to be ! Along with being an optimist the best way to be free of fear is - to start learning on time and being regular with it.

What if human culture is not exclusively human?
Zooanthropology, or On Becoming Cultural with Non-human Animals is an introductory 10-lesson course exploring the relationship between humans and other animals and asking a fundamental question: how much of what we call “culture” has actually emerged through our relationships with other species?
The course offers a different perspective. Rather than considering culture an exclusively human achievement, zooanthropology understands it as something that has emerged through relationships, encounters and exchanges between species. Other animals are not simply objects of human knowledge or resources for human development: they are subjects who have influenced, shaped and transformed us.
This perspective invites us to reconsider our own position in the world and to question some deeply rooted assumptions about the supposed boundary between humans and other animals. It also encourages us to decentre our perspective and to become more attentive to forms of intelligence, communication, emotion, learning and relationship that do not seem to resemble our own.
The course is transdisciplinary, drawing on anthropology, philosophy, ethology and other fields. Along the way, you will encounter concepts such as intersubjectivity, epiphany, hybridisation and epimelesis, among many others. But don't be intimidated by the terminology! No previous knowledge of anthropology, philosophy, ethology or zooanthropology is required. What the course does require is curiosity, an interest in human–nonhuman animal relations, and a willingness to question some familiar ideas and look at the world from a less anthropocentric perspective.
Slides and a bibliography will be provided.

Hello! My name is Najwa. Originally from Canada, where I lived and studied in English and French, I recently moved to Belgium. I am comfortable using both languages on a daily basis, which allows me to explain concepts clearly, whether in pure English or by using comparisons with French when necessary.

With a degree in social work (UQAM), I have extensive experience in providing support, whether it be tutoring children with schoolwork and homework help, or helping them learn English. I know how to adapt my approach to each individual: patience, active listening, and effective teaching methods are at the heart of my teaching style.

I offer English lessons for all ages and levels:
-Beginners who want to lay a solid foundation
-Students receiving academic support (homework, exam preparation)
-Adult language development courses (conversation, speaking confidence, professional English)

My courses take place exclusively online.

My goal: for you to progress at your own pace, in a relaxed and non-judgmental atmosphere. I adapt to your needs and objectives, whether it's passing an exam, preparing for a trip, or simply gaining confidence.

Feel free to contact me to discuss your goals!
