AngličtinaHello! I'm Matthew Lavelle, a TEFL-qualified English teacher from the United States. My approach combines structured lessons with practical language use, so students can apply what they learn in real-world situations. I believe in creating engaging, interactive, and student-focused lessons that cater to individual learning needs. Most importantly, I make sure to create a fun and supportive environment where students can feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them.
I spent over 20 years working in corporate finance and, in 2024, I decided to follow my passion and start teaching full-time. I feel comfortable teaching all ages of children as I have coached youth sports for over 15 years. I also work with adults of all levels, including business professionals who need specific English for their work. My 20+ years in corporate America give me additional insights into the needs of business professionals. I am an avid fan of European football and love to travel to different stadiums to watch matches.
