About Me
italki teacher since Apr 22, 2020Interest topicHistoryBusiness & FinanceScience
Passionate about culture, communication and problem-solving, I trained to become an English language teacher after graduating in Philosophy from the University of Sheffield. In addition to teaching English, I am a freelance business consultant with experience in executive recruitment, sales and marketing.
In my spare time, you’ll probably find me brewing the perfect cup of coffee, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, cracking open a bottle of wine, reading articles about politics or social justice, or (let’s be honest) searching for something to watch on Netflix.Me as a Teacher
Back in 2011, I trained for the Trinity College TESOL Certification in London (UK). As soon as I graduated, I was hired by the language school to begin teaching students.
After a few months, I moved to Seville (Spain) and began teaching at a language academy in Seville (Spain). I also became a coordinator for TESOL Spain, a non-profit organisation dedicated to providing continued training and support to teachers of English.
After a number of years, I moved to Buenos Aires (Argentina) and began working as a human resources consultant for multinational organisations. I continued to teach English independently and on a freelance basis.My lessons & teaching style
General English - Business English - Test Preparation
My teaching style is based on communication through speaking and listening. I believe that the most effective way to learn a language is by using the language to explore the things in life that interest you most.
I can offer resources and tips for you to practice your reading and writing skills during your free time. We can then review the work that you’ve been doing through conversation in the following class.
We will quickly identify the areas that you need to focus on - particular vocabulary, certain aspects of pronunciation, specific grammar points or a combination of these - and adapt our classes to target these.Certificates

Shaun, thank you for helping me prepare for the HR interview. You are a very professional teacher. I am happy to share that I have successfully passed the HR interview. I would not have achieved this without your teaching and guidance. Thank you very much.

Honesty and precision are two words that define him. I have gained a lot of confidence thanks to Sean. The class is very dynamic and time flies by when you talk to him.

There are teachers who follow manuals, there are those who don’t. Exceptional teachers delve into matters much deeper than any textbooks. Shaun goes further. His explanation based on his personal research and reflection makes everything in language learning more meaningful. I’m so lucky to have him as a teacher.
