Welcome to Interview English. After a long, successful and varied career in aviation, engineering, training, management and business, I settled in Asia, where I found an opportunity to teach and develop Aviation English. I had the background in aviation but at that time was not qualified to teach English as a foreign language (TEFL). Once qualified, I gained experience teaching for one of the world’s largest online English schools, and after a short time, I was lucky to be ranked by the students as one of the most popular teachers. I had discovered my passion for teaching.
I had the privilege of teaching many amazing people from a cross section of society, including young children to high school and college graduates, government officials, professors, doctors, lawyers, bankers, pilots, engineers, business managers, and more. Students seemed to enjoy my teaching methods, regardless of their age, gender, academic level, or status. I often asked myself why? And, sometimes students would let me know. The key seemed to be that they enjoyed my classes. They said they felt relaxed, and that they learned much more than just English.
I believe it is important to build a good teacher student relationship and to understand the learning styles and the needs of every student before you can adapt to the most appropriate teaching style. It is important for a teacher to give the student their full attention during a class, and most importantly to make it an enjoyable experience. We all learn more when we are doing something we like.
I started Interview English Ltd. with the aim of providing a professional service to professional people, to the highest standards in teaching, materials and customer service. All teachers that work with us must be Native-English Speakers, and they should also have experience in their specialist fields such as engineering, business etc. This ensures that the students can achieve a more deep and meaningful understanding of the English language associated with their profession.
Our interview coaching and mock interview services have helped many people towards getting their dream position, and it is immensely satisfying to us when we receive personal messages of thanks from our students.
Thank you to all of our students who have helped us to get this far, and we look forward to welcoming all new students to our learning community.
