Alan Gitsham

Hallo, my name is Alan and I teach English for Business. I was born in the UK and I live in the south of England.
I teach online, one-on-one, and my students are people who want to learn or improve their English to advance in the world of business.
I have a business degree and I am a chartered accountant and I have had a long and varied career in business, which includes management consulting, human resources, and communications, in many different industries. I have been a financial director and a managing director and I have run my own business.
So as I teach English, I will also teach you business skills. How to do well in a job interview, how to write impressive emails, business letters and reports, how to give memorable presentations, and how to speak and listen properly on the telephone. Plus I also cover socialising and negotiating.
I will assess your English level and discuss with you what areas you want to focus on and what skills you need in the speaking, reading, writing and understanding of business English.
Our lessons will relate directly to your own business situation.
We will use both conversational and formal English, and our lessons will be informative and enjoyable.
