I specialise in teaching General English, Business English, Legal English, and Exam Preparation. Lesson style My goal is to help you improve your English speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. I am a friendly and relaxed teacher, and our lessons will feel like conversations with a friend. However, I will also help you achieve your learning goals. CELTA and TEFL Academy I have completed professional training in English teaching, which helps me to plan effective lessons and provide my students with the best possible learning experience. First Lesson Our first lesson will be a free trial. During this lesson, we will discuss your learning goals and I will assess your English level. I will then explain how my lessons work and how I can help you achieve your goals. Lesson Structure The structure of our lessons will vary depending on your learning goals and needs. However, we will always focus on improving your speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. General English Most students want to improve their communication skills – Speaking and Listening, but also improve their grammar and expand their vocabulary. Through extensive speaking practice, we will increase your fluency and confidence, and I will slowly increase your grammar knowledge and vocabulary. Sometimes we can read texts and analyse and learn language from it. Business English Most students want to improve their communication skills (Speaking and Listening), learn more vocabulary and improve grammar, all in a Business English context. This is what we will practise. We can also practise email writing, presentations, meetings and negotiations. Legal English The purpose here is to feel more comfortable discussing and understanding legal topics, as well as reading and writing, all in a practical manner. We will grow your vocabulary through speaking, reading and listening to legal topics. We will cover different topics of legal English, such as commercial law, litigation, legal processes, employment law and more. Interviews Preparation The objective is to make you as ready as possible for your interview. We will practise interview questions, and I will provide you with professional tips on the best answers to get the job you want. I will also help you with your CV, cover letter. Exam Preparation I will familiarise you with the exam structure and ALL sections of the exam. I will teach you the correct techniques for each question type, and then we will practise them. Here homework is important because you will need to do some of your own practice at home. Homework I provide homework as I feel it is important for you to practise and consolidate what we covered in the lesson. It is of course your own choice how much homework you want to have. The homework I send is relevant grammar exercises, listening or video watching exercises, reading (for vocabulary improvement) and writing. They help you practise all the language skills. Resources I use textbooks, workbooks, videos, audios, online exercises, role-playing and more. Send me a message with a few details about yourself and what you wish to achieve or give me a call and we can discuss your needs. I have taught all types of people and all sorts of nationalities privately. Eugene

  • Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn?

    I speak English because of my origin. I am British.
  • Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?

    This question is not easy, since we are talking about a language spoken by about 350 million native speakers and about 700 million non-native speakers. Can there be a person who is representative of a diverse language culture of over 1,000,000,000 people? English is also the official language of +50 countries. What person can represent the culture of this language?

    I would have to resort to picking a series of famous people who speak English:

    William Shakespeare - a very famous writer from the 15th century

    Mr Bean - the comedian who shows an awkward middle class person

    Sherlock Holmes - the famous fictional character

    The Queen - The British Queen, being a symbol of British culture.

    Friends - the world famous American TV sitcom, showing the life of 6 Americans.

    Usain Bolt - he is an iconic athlete, who speaks English a first language.

    In fact, any musician or athlete can be picked - David Beckham, The Beatles.

    Any politician can be picked too.


    If I pick one person as a representative of the language's culture, I will also reduce and limit the language to what that person represents - millionaire, upper class, athlete, musician, TV show.
  • Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behaviour in the language that you particularly like?

    I like the tradition of going to the pub in England. There's normally no music, and it's a place for friends to gather and chat. The pub is central to English culture. People have a beer or a different drink, and talk about their lives.
  • Why does speaking this language matter to you?

    English is the most important global language. English helps people make connections with people from other countries. It is also an important skill in your career. There is no other language that is as global as English. Other languages are important in specific regions, like Spanish and Latin America, Mandarin and China, Arabic and the Middle East, but English is important in the whole world.
  • What is the main difficulty in learning this language and what can help the process of learning?

    The difficulty depends on the level of the student.

    English pronunciation is not so easy, and there are many different accents - American, English, Scottish, Irish, Australian, Jamaican etc.

    What you need to do is to watch English listening exercises, based on your level. I always send listening exercises so that my students can practice their listening skills

    Another difficulty of learning English is perhaps phrasal verbs. They are the barrier between an intermediate or upper intermediate level and advanced. They are very similar to one another but have entirely different meanings. Native speakers use them often, which makes things confusing and tricky.
    How to learn them? Repetition of them is important, but also listening and reading texts containing phrasal verbs - you can find plenty online
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.

    Like many of my students, I've studied a language at school but did not make much progress in communicating in that language. We focused a lot on grammar, vocabulary and reading, but less on listening and speaking. In fact, speaking was the skill we practiced the least. This means that I couldn't have a spontaneous German conversation now. This is similar to many people's experiences of learning languages.

    I now understand that practicing speaking and listening is very important, and I make my students practice these skills a lot.
  • How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?

    I have experience of travelling to other countries when not being able to speak the local language, and then I learned that language.

    In 2012 I travelled alone for 3 months in Central America. Most local people I met did not speak any English at all. I experienced the difficulty of not being able to communicate effectively with people. I started the trip with almost zero Spanish.

    During my trip I did an intensive Spanish language course for 2 weeks and I stayed with a family during that time. After 3 months of travelling I was able to have conversational Spanish at an A2 level.

    This experience taught me how it feels to be a student of a language. I experienced the difficulty of almost not being able to communicate. Then my level improved and I experienced how it feels to communicate on a basic level.

    I feel that trip in 2012 made me a better teacher of English, because I understood how students feel. I also saw new methods of teaching. I learned a lot, and I feel I became a better English teacher because I had to learn a foreign language myself.
  • What makes you a Superprof in language?

    What makes me a Superprof in English is my teaching experience, qualifications of teaching English, and my experience of learning foreign languages.

    I am qualified by the University of Cambridge to teach English (CELTA certificate) as well as another certificate called "120 hours TEFL" by the TEFL Academy.

    I have taught in Israel, England and Guatemala. I've also taught English online since January 2017. It means I've taught in classrooms, one-on-one, different professions, ages and nationalities. I have a diverse experience of teaching English.

    My experience of learning languages, starting from a complete beginner level - fluent Spanish, intermediate French, beginner Italian and Portuguese. This means I understand the process a student goes through, and I also understand what is effective and important.
