MORE INFORMATION

I aim to make my lessons fun, challenging and interactive, so my students leave each lesson feeling that they have achieved something. The content of the lessons comes primarily from the student and is always based on the student`s needs. As a result, the student gains the maximum benefit from each lesson.

Lessons can be either 1-1 or groups, at my home or at the student`s office / home.

If you are not able to do lessons face-to-face, I also offer online lessons.

My lesson prices are competitive and are given below:

£15 per hour (on Skype)
£20 per hour (in person)

Lesson times and length are flexible and suit the student`s requirements.

Here are some comments from my students:

1. Benoit Mansuy
Date of feedback: 26 October 2014
Company: ArcelorMittal
“Hi Mark. First of all, I would like to thank you again for that great week spent in Portsmouth. I really enjoyed that way of working, that way of teaching.

I came back to France on Friday and I’m convinced that my English improved during that stay. Even if one week remains too short to realize huge improvement.

Anyway, I’m trying to follow your advice and I’ve podcasted many ‘6 minutes’ on BBC. Iread a lot of English texts as well.

Hope to keep that motivation.
Thanks and have a nice week, Benoit (Ben)

Committed from first day. Knowledgeable and professional. Full of resources, amiable and humorous. Could not be more pleased with his classes. I would recommend him to any English student.
