Qualified teacher with almost 10 years' experience, focusing mainly on official exam preparation Hello, my name is Stephen, I am originally from London, but I now live in Spain on the beautiful island of Menorca. I have nearly 10 years of teaching experience, and I have been a language learner for most of my life, so I understand the issues that you may be experiencing. I decided to become an English teacher because as a result of learning Spanish, I have been able to live and work abroad, and through teaching, I can give people the same opportunities that I have had. I have taught in public schools and specialised language schools in Spain over the last 10 years, and I currently work as a freelance teacher delivering online lessons to students both locally and internationally. Whatever you would like to achieve, I am here to help you. I can offer you a wide variety of classes, for example: preparation for official exams (Cambridge, IELTS, TOEFL, Linguaskill, Aptis etc), business English, conversation classes, writing correction etc. I am very adaptable though, so if you have any specific requests for things you would like to focus on, let me know and I can prepare the appropriate material. If you aren't sure what you would like to practice, in a trial lesson I can establish your level of English. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy watching all sports, but especially football, I am a huge Arsenal fan. I look forward to meeting you soon and helping you to achieve your English learning goals!

    I have been taking conversation classes with Stephanie for two years and as a result recently received my C1 certificate in the IELTS exam. I have now moved on to taking her Business English classes, which I also highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their English for career advancement in business or STEM.

    I find my lessons with Annette extremely useful for practising the speaking component of the OET. We manage to complete two scenarios in half an hour, and I can see that I am gradually improving over time. I really enjoy working with her, and I appreciate that she often extends the lesson by a few minutes to allow us to finish reviewing the corrections or to ask me whether I need any further advice on how to improve my OET performance.

    Everything was lovely! We practised the TOEFL Speaking section, and Ben gave me some useful tips that helped me feel more confident throughout the lesson.

    I have been preparing for the IELTS with James, and I couldn't be happier. His teaching approach is ideal: lessons are well organised, and he always explains things clearly with practical examples. What I appreciate most is that he corrects my mistakes immediately and explains the reason behind each correction, which has helped me improve my writing and speaking much faster. I feel comfortable and confident in his lessons, and I can really see my progress. I would definitely recommend him to anyone preparing for the IELTS

    앤 선생님은 학생이 편하게 대화할 수 있게 분위기를 만들어주시고, 개선점이나 새로운 내용을 전달할 때는 아주 명확하고 깔끔하게 내용을 설명해주셔서 이해하기 쉬워요. 수업이 끝나면 피드백 내용을 파일로 만들어서 따로 전달해주시는데, 그동안 무의식적으로 하던 습관들을 개선시키는 방안이나 구조적으로 깔끔한 영어를 말할 수 있는 표현들도 많이 알려주셔서 복습하고 혼자 연습하는데 도움이 돼요. 경험이 많으셔서 제가 고민을 말하면 교육적으로 검증된 명확한 해답도 안내해주십니다. 수업이 끝나고 나면 알찬 수업이었다는 생각이 들어요! 좋은 스피킹 선생님을 찾으신다면 추천합니다:)

    I had a wonderful experience learning with this teacher. I was quite nervous about my IELTS exam, but he guided and motivated me throughout the lesson. He carefully evaluated my performance and shared valuable tips that helped me improve and achieve my desired result. He speaks very clearly, explains everything in an easy-to-understand way, and is extremely supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend him to anyone preparing for IELTS. Truly one of the best teachers!

    Under Naphan’s guidance, I learned how to speak English in a relaxed way—no rush, no pressure, no particular goal. Just chatting, going wherever the conversation takes us, and talking about whatever comes to mind. And suddenly, I realized I could speak more than I ever thought I could. I’ve come to understand that my problem was never really my mouth. It was my mindset. The more relaxed I am, the more naturally the words flow. Sometimes, the less you try to achieve, the more you gain. Thank you Naphan.

    I started Business English lessons with Joanna in October through the “Let’s Talk Corporate” programme, and the course has been tailored to my job from the very first session. She took the time to understand my daily work as a database engineer in the utilities sector, then built a twelve unit course around real topics such as metering applications, Oracle PL/SQL, billing logic and system architecture. Every lesson comes with conversation cards featuring realistic role plays between colleagues, with key grammar structures highlighted in context, vocabulary lists translated into Italian and useful professional phrases. A checklist of phrases to use during each session keeps the practice focused and measurable. Joanna is receptive, encouraging and always open to feedback, adapting the lessons whenever I suggest improvements. I would highly recommend her to any professional looking for Business English that is truly relevant to their work.

Frequently Asked Question

Who is the BEC exam designed for?

The BEC exam, or Business English Certificate, is an international English language qualification that assesses proficiency in English within a business context. The BEC exam is designed for individuals who want to demonstrate their ability to use English in professional and business environments. It is suitable for a wide range of professionals in management, finance, marketing, and other business-related fields.

What are the different levels of the BEC exam?

The BEC exam is typically offered at three levels: BEC Preliminary (B1), BEC Vantage (B2), and BEC Higher (C1). Each level corresponds to a different level of language proficiency. The BEC exam is scored on a scale from A to C, with C being the highest level of achievement. A passing grade is typically a Grade C or higher.

What are the key components of the Business English Certificate (BEC) exam?

The Business English Certificate (BEC) exam consists of four key components. The Reading component assesses the candidate’s ability to understand and interpret written business English. It typically includes a variety of texts such as articles, reports, emails, and advertisements. Candidates may be asked to answer multiple-choice questions, match headings to paragraphs, or fill in gaps in a text.
The Writing component evaluates the candidate’s ability to communicate effectively in written business English. It often includes tasks such as writing emails, reports, proposals, or essays. The focus is on clarity and the correct use of business-related vocabulary. The Listening component assesses the candidate’s ability to understand spoken English in business. Candidates listen to recordings of workplace interactions, meetings, presentations, or interviews. Tasks may include multiple-choice questions, completing tables or forms, or summarizing information. The Speaking component involves a face-to-face interview with an examiner. It assesses the candidate’s ability to communicate orally in business-related situations. The Speaking test typically includes tasks such as introducing oneself, discussing business topics, and responding to questions or scenarios. It aims to evaluate fluency, accuracy, and effective communication skills.

What is the format of the BEC speaking test?

The Speaking test is typically divided into four parts:
1. Introduction and Interview (Part 1): In this part, the examiner introduces themselves and checks the candidate’s identification. The examiner then initiates a brief conversation with the candidate, asking about familiar topics such as work, studies, or personal interests. The goal is to assess the candidate’s ability to engage in a simple conversation and provide personal information.
2. Long Turn (Part 2): In this part, the candidate is given a task card with a prompt and is asked to speak about a specified business-related topic for about one minute. The candidate has some preparation time, usually one minute, to make notes before delivering their response. This part assesses the candidate’s ability to clearly present information on a given topic.
3. Collaborative Task (Part 3): This part involves a collaborative task between the candidate and the examiner. The task typically requires the candidate to interact with the examiner, discussing a business-related issue or scenario presented on a task card. The candidate and the examiner discuss ideas and opinions. This part assesses the candidate’s ability to engage in interactive communication.
4. Discussion (Part 4): This part is a more in-depth discussion of the topic in Part 2. The examiner asks the candidate further questions, exploring the topic in more detail. This part assesses the candidate’s ability to express opinions, justify viewpoints, and engage in a more extended conversation on business-related subjects.

Is there a validity period for the BEC certification?

BEC certification does not have an expiration date. Once obtained, it is a lifelong qualification. Candidates are generally allowed to retake the BEC exam if they do not achieve a passing grade. There is usually no limit to the number of times the exam can be taken.
