There are actually to words that I have incredible difficulty in spelling and they are (Drum roll please!)

Onomatopoeia - a word that phonetically imitates the sound it describes, e.g. Boom!

Diarrhoea (I'm British, and this how we spell it in UK English) - No definition required.

What English word do you struggle to spell every single time when writing or typing?

I used to struggle spelling some words with double letters.

This is a good question. I'm dyslexic so it can be anything. But there are lots of tricks: there has 'here' in it. To and too: 'to'wards and tooooooo much.

Any word that has double letters, especially when I'm in a rush to write & submit something.

Broccoli  I did just type it wrong the first time

People usually start with Connecticut🤣.

Hi, I'm British, but have been living in the beautiful land of Botswana for over 35 years. My wife (who's also British) and I retired about 6 years ago. To fulfill a secret lifetime ambition as well as to stay active in a fun way, I retrained as an English teacher. Wildlife, travel and rugby are my great passions in life, and living in Botswana allows me to pursue all three at the same time! Oh, and the great weather also means a healthy outdoor lifestyle. I'm now a bit old to play rugby, but I'll always find time to watch a game. 
I grew up living all around the world. Living in places such as Cyprus, Hong Kong, Belize and Thailand in my childhood, has made me addicted to travelling. My wife and I have been to places  like India, Nepal, Guatemala...the list goes forever on. Foreign travel is a great way to broaden the mind and understanding of our fellow human beings. I truly believe everyone should travel if they can; it would solve so many problems in the world.

As I mentioned earlier, I'm retired. I was a senior manager in a multi-national company and have experience in most areas of management. I'm an experienced interviewer, having interviewed countless people. So If you want to improve your business English, 

If you are reading this the chances are that you have been studying English for some time, but you still cannot actually speak or use English. It's not you, it has been the way you have been taught! Schools  have been using a method of language teaching which has been proven to be the worst way to teach, as it emphasizes learning grammar and uncontextualized vocabulary from a book.  YOU'VE STUDYING ENGLISH, YOU HAVE NOT BEEN LEARNING  ENGLISH. It's like trying to learn how to swim by reading about it in a book, but never getting into the water and ACTUALLY SWIMMING.
My teaching method is completely different. After taking a placement test, I will tailor make a complete course for you. We will begin learning how to "Learn English with Our Ears". Listening  and speaking are the KEYS to  being  fluent in English. My lessons are conversation based and are designed to be fun. When you're relaxed and having fun, you learn more and you learn faster. It's that simple.

Intro JadeSteel-8d5c44

Jade Steel

I’ve taught in an early preprimary school in Australia for young children. Assisting qualified teachers with exciting learning games and activities.

I think it’s essential to start with the basics such as the alphabet, numbers, greetings and grammar/speech delivery as this will help develop a strong learning pattern. I like to make learning fun & easy! If there’s anything in particular you’d like to learn specifically, let me know and we can work it out together. If you’re interested in general conversation to improve on your English, I also love this too! Get in touch with me today, I’m available 24/7. ☺️

Native English speaker & early childhood teachers assistant.

Imagine you can start, improve or refine your English  language skills in class where you can sit back and relax, laugh and don't have to learn by old fashion way of  only  memorizing words, phrases and grammar rules you will hardly find useful in real everyday life.

Hi, my name is Mary Elizabeth. You can call me Beth. I live in the United States in the state of New York. My college degree is English Literature. I love to read. I like walking, bike riding, cross country skiing, gardening, snowshoeing and playing with my cats. I am learning German. I hope you will learn with me. Thank you.

Intro MaryElizabethRowan-7539f6

Mary Elizabeth

In 2000, I began tutoring reading and  I tutored a student in Spanish. I did this until 2008. I took a 120 hour TEFL course, Teaching English as a Foreign Language. In college, I tutored sciences in their Office of Special Programs.

We will have fun while learning in the way which is best for you. I know that everyone does not learn in the same way. At first, learners do not know grammar words and that is fine. We will learn what we need as we go along. If you want to spend the time only on conversations, that  will be what we focus on.

I am Mary and I am working as a part time English tutor and Freelancer. Full time sonographer.
If you are planning to take your IELTS exam and you need help in organizing your study habits in learning the English language. I would be happy to help you.

Intro MARYANN-c2aaf6

MARY ANN

I can focus on on students who are having difficulty in organizing their time in learning English and I can help them prepare for the exam especially in Writing.

Part time content writer and English Teacher (IELTS verified)

Teaching should be fun and relevant. It's important to me that we remained relaxed in sessions, but have an aim an focus. Nearly all of my lesson materials are custom made for my students. This help us make very fast progress.

My CV is a little colourful.

My BA is in Theology, from Kings College, University of London,

My Master is in Film from Middlesex University, also the University of London.

My TEFL120hour Certification, is from TheTEFL.org

For about 15 years I worked in the world of Corporate Communications and Public Relations. This involved a huge amount of research, writing and communicating at a senior level.

But, there were many other jobs along the way - working security through to hotels. 

I've volunteered with young people, the homeless and lots of other things.

In every role, I've happily been the colleague that helps other colleagues (and friends) get that little bit better at what they do.

Dogs, cat, boats and films are probably my biggest hobbies.

Intro DominicBrant-0d934f

Dominic Brant

Based on my Corporate background, I have a huge interest in helping people develop their CVs/Resumes and interview techniques. This becomes more of a mentoring relationship. The essence is to help my clients to both understand and then express their own professional stories in a compelling and meaningful way. I am to give a little light of  hope to the miserable world of job hunting/career development. I have, and do, work with senior staff and leaders - business, academic and NGO.

I've been involved with many local and a few national charities, often focussed on mental well-being and the needs of young people.

If you have any special needs, or are involved in these fields, then I'm extra very happy to work with you!

If you are dyslexic or have particular learning needs you'll get nothing but support from me.

If you're super ambitious and have a plan, then Game On, let's get to work. :)

All language skills over-lap. If you learn grammar to talk about a hobby it's easier to use that same grammar at work, with friends, or your family.

Conversation is a great way to build confidence.  Then we grow to include novels, short stories, articles and journalism. Nothing is out of bounds - as long as it is well written.

When you're ready and willing, you can also write reports and short texts. Here I become your editor: your words, your ideas and my feedback. This is a lot of fun, and you create a portfolio of your own writing!

Whatever you reason to learn, remember that any English you learn is valuable and useful so long as it has a purpose. The vocabulary may change, but the grammar and structures do not.

I look forward to working with your :)

Fun, focussed and relevant. Business. Academic. Creative.

I am a movie buff who loves to watch movies that are related to business, so that I can learn and enhance my proficiency in English.
My future plan is to travel around the world to help non-native speakers improve their command of professional English, and also to equip them with useful professional career skills.

I am a CTBE-certified Coach since 2018, who helps non-native working professionals, utilizing English as a tool using Executive Coaching methods.
I have been teaching Business English for more than 5 years, specializing in management executives to improve writing and speaking skills in their meetings, discussions, and presentations.

My teaching methodologies are: Personalized Education & Inquiry-Based Learning.

My sessions will take the student-centered approach to a new level by, as much as possible, responding to each individual learner’s unique needs, strengths, and weaknesses. Each student gets a learning plan that's based on what he or she knows and how he or she learns best (all of this via a Needs Analysis form). Through individualized 'tactics and strategies', learning is tailored to the student. It provides numerous and yet-to-be-discovered advantages for both the teacher and the student.

Also, my sessions will engage students by making real-world connections through exploration and case studies.

I focus on helping management professionals on their meeting, discussion, & presentation skills.
