About Matthew
Hi! I'm Matt, a full-time Software Engineer in London and a TEFL-certified English tutor. I spend my working days in meetings, codebases, and presentations alongside colleagues who are doing all of that in a second language, which is what drew me to teaching the professionals I now work with on here.
I love languages and the process of learning them. I've taught English in a classroom in Beijing, studied Mathematics at university, and spent a year placing software engineers into US tech roles before moving into engineering myself. Each of those experiences shapes how I teach, from breaking language down logically, to understanding what interviewers actually listen for, to knowing first-hand what it feels like to work in a demanding technical environment.
Outside of work you'll find me reading, running, lifting weights, or picking up something new. I genuinely believe that being a good learner makes you a better teacher, and it's the thing that keeps me honest in every lesson.

About the lesson

All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
My approach is built on structure and specific feedback, not generic "let's just chat" lessons. Every session has a clear objective, a focused activity, and a discussion that stretches fluency under realistic conditions. I give feedback in the moment: I name what I heard, model the sharper version, contrast the two, and you try it again. My Mathematics degree shapes how I break language down into clear, logical steps, so you always know where you are and where you're heading next.
Lessons are 50 minutes by default, with 25-minute options available for focused practice or check-ins between longer sessions.
I'm TEFL-certified with on-site classroom teaching experience at a school in Beijing. Before becoming a full-time Software Engineer, I spent a year as a recruitment consultant placing software engineers into US tech roles, which shapes how I approach interview prep.
Suited to adult learners at B1 (intermediate) and above. I specialise in Business English, workplace communication, and interview preparation for Software Engineers, Data Scientists, and other tech and business professionals.
