Do you recognise this person?
You’re a busy professional, juggling multiple responsibilities and find it challenging to keep on track with your English skills.
Don’t let your hectic schedule be the reason for not investing in your language skills.
I use my in-depth knowledge of language and communication skills, paired with my expertise as a course designer to create an individualised learning path and take you from where you are now to where you want to go. How? Read on..
Where are you now?
If you can read this, your English is already at an advanced level. You are able to deal with routine situations in English, but you often feel that you are lacking the right words when you are out of your comfort zone.
Learners who take my 1-1 course often just need support on developing their communicative competence through targeted feedback and awareness of sustainable strategies that a skilled professional like me can provide, that will transform passive knowledge into long-term, future-proof learning.
Where do you want to go?
Many professionals I work with wish to gain the confidence and competence to speak English in their everday professional life and be able to transition seamlessly between a range of complex situations. I’ve helped several talented individuals sharpen their English in order to fulfil aspirations of working internationally and, moreover, to display the same level of competence and expertise in English that they have in their first language.
How can you get there?
Online learning suite
The lessons come with full access to my online learning suite, which includes supplementary materials, custom-built quizzes and feedback, interactive language development activities, as well as expert tips and links to a curated range of my own materials tailored to your needs.
Individualised approach
This individualised approach makes each and every 1-1 course at wordsmithery.elt unique and ensures it is relevant to learners from a range of cultural and professional backgrounds.

What the satisfied learners who have taken the Minding Your Busyness 1-1 communication course say….
Benjamin H.
“Lewis is an excellent and very personable English teacher who not only has a sound knowledge of the subject, but also has the ability to always motivate and create varied lessons in a relaxed atmosphere. The lessons are interactive, engaging and a lot of fun. He manages to explain complex topics in a simple and relatable way, which makes learning much easier. I particularly like the fact that he always responds flexibly to individual needs and is uniquely skilled at providing me with targeted support. Additional support and practise materials he uploads to the learning suite between the lessons, rounds off the experience perfectly.
I can highly recommend lessons with Lewis to anyone who wants to take their English to a new level.”
Guido B.
“After changing jobs, I found myself in a situation where I needed to improve my English quickly.
My business vocabulary was not particularly well developed. Therefore, I found it difficult to contribute to and lead meetings in English. I often had to think about how to express something, which often took too much time.
Lewis’ methodology is fun and effective, with each lesson always interesting and varied. Lewis often incorporates tools that make the lessons entertaining. It’s like a jigsaw puzzle where all the pieces fit together perfectly at the end of the lesson.
I have made great progress thanks to the 1-1 course. I can now speak freely without having to translate in my head, my vocabulary is now far more extensive than before and grammatically, I have also learnt a lot.
For me, the way Lewis teaches is perfect. If someone is unsure, I would advise them to take a few trial lessons Thank you very much, Lewis.”
Monika H.
“The mystery behind being a good teacher is to make your students await the next lesson with joy and curiosity, safe in the knowledge that they will make more progress. I had exactly these feelings while I was doing the course with Lewis. Well-structured sessions, accompanied by a focus on pronunciation, but also allowing room for spontaneity could be a blueprint for every teacher. I can’t wait for the future lessons and would highly recommend every potential English learner to check it out!”
