Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong $120/hr
Highly experienced and effective Native English tutor (British).
My name is Frank and I am a mature native English teacher from the United Kingdom. I am a fully qualified CELTA teacher and I also hold an MBA from Durham University in the UK. I have a clear and easy-to-understand Oxford/Cambridge British accent.
I have extensive experience in successfully teaching English across a broad range of levels, from primary students to professionals in the boardroom. My students have come from leading schools and companies in Hong Kong, both local and international.
Having lived in Hong Kong for 22 years, I hold a permanent HK ID which allows me to legally work for any employer. I am the father of two young children who have been educated in international schools here in Hong Kong and are now studying in boarding schools in the UK.
I fully understand the pressures that children, young adults, and professionals face in Hong Kong when it comes to achieving and maintaining a certain level of English proficiency. Whether it's for academic advancement or career progression, I offer fun, creative, and interactive classes. I would describe myself as friendly, reliable, patient, committed, understanding, and non-judgmental. Over the years, I have built up a comprehensive library of professional teaching materials from publishers like Longman, Oxford, and Cambridge, as well as creating my own materials for specific purposes. I have a proven track record in improving English standards and I am dedicated to helping my students succeed.
I offer a variety of classes including English Conversation, Phonics (for children and adults), Writing, Pronunciation, School Interview Preparation, Exam Preparation (including IELTS, TOEFL, GRE, International Baccalaureate, GESE, KET, PET, FCE, IGCSE, HKDSE, etc.), UK Boarding School Entrance (11+ exam preparation, 13+ exam preparation, CAT4 testing, etc.), University Entrance (Writing Personal Statements, etc.), Proofreading, and Business English (including English for Trade Shows, Client Visits, Social Media, Resumes, and Presentations).
