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

This class is designed for students who would like support with school English, entrance exams (up to university level), grammar, writing, and overall confidence using the language. Lessons are personalised based on each student’s level, goals, strengths and areas they would like to improve.

I can help with homework, grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, speaking, writing, exam preparation and improving overall performance in English at school. Lessons are suitable for students preparing for school exams, entrance exams, oral exams, or general English tests.

Having completed both IGCSEs and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) in an international school fully taught in English, I understand the challenges students often face when learning and using academic English in a school environment. I especially enjoy helping students not only improve their grades, but also become more confident and comfortable expressing themselves naturally in English.

Lessons are supportive, engaging, and adapted individually to each student. Depending on the student’s needs, classes can focus more on grammar and structure, speaking practice, exam preparation, academic writing, or developing stronger communication skills overall.

I offer relaxed, personalized English lessons for students of all ages and levels in Vienna. I tailor my lessons to your specific needs and goals, whether it’s exam preparation, proofreading, homework help, improving conversation skills, or simply becoming more confident speaking English in everyday life.

As someone who has been learning German since the age of 12, I understand how challenging and sometimes intimidating it can be to learn another language. My goal as a tutor is not only to help students improve their English skills, but also to create a supportive and open learning environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and having fun along the way.

I focus on making English feel natural, approachable, and enjoyable, with lessons adapted to each student’s interests, pace, and learning style.

Class Description:
Reading and writing are the fundamentals of communication, every day life, and critical thinking. Reading allows individuals to inquire knowledge while writing allows individuals to communicate. My goal is to help students pronounce and read vocabulary words efficiently and write with accurate spelling and proper punctuation.
I'm very passionate about the study of communication because it is how humans have evolved throughout history; it is how we communicate, share our marketplace of ideas, and connect as a society.

English Literature is a commonly taught subject in school, but for good reason. The concepts taught in these classes help us learn crucial lessons about our society and ourselves. This is because the themes and traits of character in these books reflect humanity to be more relatable to readers. The skills that are often taught in Literature classes are academic writing, analyzing books & their meanings, and writing essays.

As a college student who is currently majoring in English & Comparative Literature, I understand and utilize these skills in my college endeavors. Whether I am writing academically in my Rhetoric Written Argument 200 class, analyzing but also making meaning out of a 55 chapter book (Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie) in my Introduction to English and Comparative Literature class, or writing creatively to tell stories in my Introduction to Creative Writing class, I am still using those skills I learned in high school and middle school to create ideas and improve myself.

In my class, I will be tutoring your student based on their academic needs. On the first day of class, I will provide an activity to assess what your student thrives at and what they need to improve on. From then on, I will create activities based off of the skill/skills your student should be working on, whether that be analyzing, annotating, writing essays/academic writing, etc. I will also connect ideas together to help your student understand the bigger picture of Literature. For example, I could teach your student how annotating your book leads to understanding the content better, which then leads to being able to complete assignments at a better quality, and that would then lead to understanding the material more comprehensively, and that leads to scoring well on tests and/or essays.

My classroom will help students feel comfortable to ask questions and to grow because I understand how important it is to ask questions in a judgement free environment. As a student who recently undertook the middle and high school experiences, as compared to many teachers, I value your student's experience and I want to help your student enjoy it. Pressures from school can lead to immense stress, which is why I want to create a fun and effective learning environment for your student based off of their needs.
