Profilo di Tim Certified English Coach

Speak English Naturally & Confidently with Tim!
• Professional English Coach • 20 Years Experience • CELTA/TESOL Qualified

My Background

 
  • Qualifications: CELTA, TESOL, and a Degree in Linguistics
  • Experience: teaching English for almost 20 years (adults & older high school students 16+, business, academic, conversation, programming and development, all kinds of classes!)
  • Lesson focus: confidence, fluency, pronunciation, and practical grammar

I’ve taught a wide variety of students and goals — from complete beginners to advanced learners, and from casual conversation to exam and business English.

Who Should Study with Me?
 

Many Japanese students tell me they feel stuck — even after years of study and practice.

They often think:
  • I’ve studied for years, but I still can’t speak smoothly.
  • I know grammar and vocabulary, but my mind goes blank in conversation.
  • I can understand English, but I can’t respond quickly.
  • I use AI a lot in meetings because speaking feels awkward or embarrassing.
  • My pronunciation makes me worried people won’t understand me.
  • I feel nervous and I’m afraid of making mistakes.

If you have ever thought any of these things, my lessons are perfect for you.
We focus on communicative skills, fluency, and success.

If you feel this way, I strongly recommend starting with a Free Consultation. It’s a simple, low-pressure way to meet, discuss your exact goals, and ensure we have the perfect materials ready for you before your first full class.
Popular Lesson Types
 
  • General English: learn new expressions, grammar patterns, and become more fluent and natural
  • Exam Preparation: IELTS, TOEIC, and other tests (weakness-focused + strategies)
  • Conversation + Pronunciation: flexible speaking practice + intonation and pronunciation coaching
  • Business English: interviews, meetings, presentations, emails, and workplace communication
Custom Lessons
I teach all adult levels and subjects. If what you want to study isn’t listed above, please message me — I can create a custom lesson based on your exact goals.
What are my Expectations for the Class?
 

My #1 goal is that you feel motivated and safe. Learning a language can be stressful — I study languages too — so I understand how it feels. In my classes, you don’t need to be perfect. You just need to try, and I’ll guide you step-by-step.

  • Bring a goal (even a small one) — I’ll help you shape it
  • Speak as much as you can — I’ll help you find the words
  • Don’t fear mistakes — we’ll use them to improve quickly
The Free Consultation is especially good if you’re nervous. I’ll keep it relaxed, support you carefully, and make sure you feel confident about our plan before you book a regular class.
What Will You Get from Studying with Me?
 
  • More confidence speaking English (without fear of mistakes)
  • Faster, smoother responses in conversation
  • Clearer pronunciation and more natural expressions
  • Practical English you can use immediately in work, travel, and daily life
  • Noticeable progress you can feel — and be proud of
Book your Free Consultation first — you’ll get clear feedback, a tailored lesson plan, and practical English you can use immediately!
