Elena works as a Process Engineer in a pharmaceutical company in Switzerland. She needs English because she will take on some new responsivities at work. She has an advanced level of English already (B2/C1) and so we have been working focusing on many areas – her confidence of using English and discussing her work, connectors and conjunctions (vocabulary and grammar of these), how to present herself at work, dependent prepositions, past modals, Scottish accent comprehension (she will be working with Scottish people), present perfect, vocabulary such as quite/fairly/somewhat, conditionals, general business topics such as Starbucks, Nestle, Monsanto and more.
The homework I’ve been sending has also been regarding the mentioned above.
Elena is a motivated and committed student of English, and I’ve enjoyed our lessons. Thank you Elena!
Perfect! Eugene is a fantastic tutor. He is passionate, driven and meticulous in his efforts to enable his students to fulfil their potential to the utmost.
His extensive experience and mastery of the subject allow him to tailor his lessons very specifically to the needs of his students. In addition, he is very professional, punctual and flexible.
David works for a Swiss bank. He needs English for work and general communication.
We have practiced doing a presentation he did for work, using the auxiliary “do” in positive sentences, how to communicate with a manager, work-related vocabulary, certain grammar and other areas. We have also practiced a lot of speaking and listening.
I’ve been sending David homework to practice different skills and grammar points: phrasal verbs, email writing, grammar reading, videos about business or general things (to practice vocabulary and comprehension), how to communicate with a manager and more.
David is always friendly and polite, and he clearly enjoys speaking English. The classes have been a pleasure. Thank you David
Perfect! Eugène est très professionnel, je conseille vivement. Je continue à travailler avec Eugène et je constate un progrès. Il est à l’écoute et très pédagogue.

It's been a few weeks since I took classes with Eugene and it was not won in advance. I am pleased with the progress I see from week to week. Eugene is a patient teacher, attentive and very professional. These courses are well structured and personalized. He is very dynamic, smiling and interesting.
It's a real pleasure to learn English now.

I started classes with Eugene by a work colleague recommendation. I wanted to improve my conversation skills. In the first class I was very impressed how he could easily understand my needs and to show how I could improve my English language. The classes are very interesting and and also fun. Many times, I needed his help in rush situations and he was always there to attend me in short time. So, I highly recommend him as an English teacher.
Eugene is a very passionate and smart linguist and a funny entertaining teacher. He is clever in the way he explains concepts and is funny, so as to make lessons enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend him as a teacher.
Really great teacher with lots of patience and knowledge. Also really well prepared. Thanks alot for the lesson
Eugene is a very professional teacher. In the lessons with him it is always interesting. He sees weaknesses and helps to eliminate them. I am very lucky that I found a teacher like Eugene.
Eugene is a highly qualified teacher. He quickly understand student's needs and develop program of education for any level. I have been studying with Eugene for year. Now I have good results in speech, vocabulary and grammar. I recommended Eugene for student's who want to start English and also who want to improve their level.
Eugene is a very proficient teacher. I had not known such a professional person before. He is patient and kind. He helped me to make myself confident when I speak in English. I totally recommend him.
I strongly recommend Eugene as a teacher!!! You'll speak like a real British within no time !- and that's what we all want, isn't it ? ;)
Eugene is a lovely guy, very intelligent, funny and very enthusiastic. You will learn lots from him and enjoy yourself!
Eugene taught me the English language a year ago.
I started my classes with him a little before traveling to work alone for the first time to another country.
His classes gave me confidence to talk better and interact with people. Eugene is an incredibly competent and considerate teacher!
I’ve been having lessons with Eugene for the past 2 months and absolutely love it! The one-to-one classes are great fun with the right level of structure, and I really feel like I’m making significant progress. I can thoroughly recommend Eugene he is a brilliant way to learn English.
Interview with Eugene
I would have to resort to picking a series of famous people who speak English:
William Shakespeare - a very famous writer from the 15th century
Mr Bean - the comedian who shows an awkward middle class person
Sherlock Holmes - the famous fictional character
The Queen - The British Queen, being a symbol of British culture.
Friends - the world famous American TV sitcom, showing the life of 6 Americans.
Usain Bolt - he is an iconic athlete, who speaks English a first language.
In fact, any musician or athlete can be picked - David Beckham, The Beatles.
Any politician can be picked too.
If I pick one person as a representative of the language's culture, I will also reduce and limit the language to what that person represents - millionaire, upper class, athlete, musician, TV show.
English pronunciation is not so easy, and there are many different accents - American, English, Scottish, Irish, Australian, Jamaican etc.
What you need to do is to watch English listening exercises, based on your level. I always send listening exercises so that my students can practice their listening skills
Another difficulty of learning English is perhaps phrasal verbs. They are the barrier between an intermediate or upper intermediate level and advanced. They are very similar to one another but have entirely different meanings. Native speakers use them often, which makes things confusing and tricky.
How to learn them? Repetition of them is important, but also listening and reading texts containing phrasal verbs - you can find plenty online
I now understand that practicing speaking and listening is very important, and I make my students practice these skills a lot.
In 2012 I travelled alone for 3 months in Central America. Most local people I met did not speak any English at all. I experienced the difficulty of not being able to communicate effectively with people. I started the trip with almost zero Spanish.
During my trip I did an intensive Spanish language course for 2 weeks and I stayed with a family during that time. After 3 months of travelling I was able to have conversational Spanish at an A2 level.
This experience taught me how it feels to be a student of a language. I experienced the difficulty of almost not being able to communicate. Then my level improved and I experienced how it feels to communicate on a basic level.
I feel that trip in 2012 made me a better teacher of English, because I understood how students feel. I also saw new methods of teaching. I learned a lot, and I feel I became a better English teacher because I had to learn a foreign language myself.
I am qualified by the University of Cambridge to teach English (CELTA certificate) as well as another certificate called "120 hours TEFL" by the TEFL Academy.
I have taught in Israel, England and Guatemala. I've also taught English online since January 2017. It means I've taught in classrooms, one-on-one, different professions, ages and nationalities. I have a diverse experience of teaching English.
My experience of learning languages, starting from a complete beginner level - fluent Spanish, intermediate French, beginner Italian and Portuguese. This means I understand the process a student goes through, and I also understand what is effective and important.
