About me

Hi. Alan here. I live with my family in a small town in Galicia, Spain, where my partner and I run a small English school. I've worked in the UK, Italy, Poland, Spain and Libya. I've worked with adults, teens and children, and in the fields of business, tech, seafaring, research and general English, of course. I've worked as Director of Studies for private schools and summer camps, supporting and observing teaching staff. I'm especially interested in speech, pronunciation and fluency. As a...

Hi. Alan here. I live with my family in a small town in Galicia, Spain, where my partner and I run a small English school. I've worked in the UK, Italy, Poland, Spain and Libya. I've worked with adults, teens and children, and in the fields of business, tech, seafaring, research and general English, of course. I've worked as Director of Studies for private schools and summer camps, supporting and observing teaching staff. I'm especially interested in speech, pronunciation and fluency. As a sideline, I've translated and proofread documents from installing power grids to child psychopathy. In my spare time I sing and play music and enjoy the outdoors.

He got me hooked with his very entertaining and different teaching activities and has managed to make the classes very enjoyable. He is a wonderful person who demonstrates that he loves what he does.

Un profesor excepcional, hice la entrevista y un 10, se le veía muy implicado.

Alan was amazing! Very kind, very helpful and completely understood my situation.

Alan es un profesor extraordinario. Profesional, divertido, entretenido, motivador... Las clases con él pasan muy rápido. Me encanta como imparte la clase, lo tiene todo preparado, te hace leer, pronunciar, te corrige. Está atento a cualquier detalle o cualquier necesidad que tengas. Si es necesario o quieres, te pone tareas para la próxima clase, repasamos conceptos de clases anteriores.... Es fantástico! Llevo pocas clases con él pero seguro que avanzaré muchisimo en poco tiempo!

Llevo cerca de mes y medio teniendo clases con Alan, y mi "miedo o vergüenza a hablar han desaparecido por completo". Me ha dado mucha confianza para no tener miedo a cometer fallos, trabarme o pronunciar mal alguna cosa. Alan ha sido mi tercer profesor en esta plataforma, y debo decir que hasta ahora no me he topado con un profesor como él, pero supe que iba a ser un acierto en cuanto ví su video de presentación. Ayuda muchísimo que una persona ame lo que hace como él, su interés, sus exigencias en cada clase y sobre todo la dinámica metafórica que utiliza para que recuerdes sí o sí el significado de todo; se distingue de una enseñanza convencional la cual odio y no era lo que buscaba, así que he acertado de pleno. Para mí Alan tiene mi máximo respeto y mi respaldo, os lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Obtuve sus servicios porque dentro de muy poco me iré a vivir a Nueza Zelanda y buscaba a alguien con un acento más Británico, y se nota. PD: prepárate porque este hombre te va a poner contra las cuerdas. Creo que es la mejor forma de aprender. Muchísimas gracias Alan, estoy muy agradecido, una pena no tener mucho más tiempo para seguir contigo. Ha sido un placer.
