About James
I’m a friendly and patient English conversation coach based in Vancouver, with over 11 years of experience working in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment. My role has involved communicating with people from all backgrounds every day, which has helped me develop strong listening skills, clear communication, and the ability to adapt to different personalities.
I specialize in helping students feel more confident speaking English in real-life situations—whether that’s at work, socially, or in everyday conversations. My approach is relaxed and practical, focusing on natural speech, pronunciation, and building confidence rather than memorization.
Outside of teaching, I’m very active and enjoy playing ice hockey, ball hockey, going to the gym, and occasionally basketball. I like to bring these interests into my sessions to keep conversations engaging and relevant.
My goal is to create a comfortable environment where students can improve quickly and start speaking English with more ease and confidence.

I help students improve their spoken English, confidence, and real-life communication skills in a relaxed and practical way.
With over 11 years of experience working in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment, I speak with people from all backgrounds every day. This has helped me develop strong communication skills and the ability to explain things clearly and patiently.
My lessons focus on:
Natural conversation and pronunciation
Building confidence speaking in real situations
Everyday English (work, social life, travel)
Reducing hesitation and overthinking
I keep sessions engaging and personalized by incorporating topics you enjoy—whether that’s sports (hockey, basketball), fitness, or daily life in Canada.
My goal is simple:
→ Help you speak comfortably, confidently, and naturally
Lessons are relaxed, practical, and focused on real improvement—not just textbook English.

James had tutored my sisters kids for 6 months. He was very kind, patient and professional. His listening ability was beneficial and comforting to someone who didn’t speak English as their first language. The nieces had so much more confidence in day to day conversations. I would highly recommend James to anyone looking to boost their confidence with English speaking!
