About Thomas

Do you need a higher CELPIP score? I can help you build your English skills and feel more confident on test day. I’m Thomas, a certified CELPIP instructor in Toronto. I have over 20 years of experience teaching English. I’m also a former British Council IELTS Speaking Examiner, which means I have assessed students’ spoken English during official IELTS tests. Our lessons will focus on what you need most. You may want to speak more clearly, improve your writing, or finish tasks on time. We’ll practise step by step, and I’ll explain what you’re doing well and how to improve. I also mentor entrepreneurs in Canada’s Start-Up Visa Program, helping them share their business ideas and build professional relationships. I understand that learning English is about more than a test. It can help you reach your goals in work and life. You can expect patient teaching, honest feedback, and plenty of chances to practise and ask questions. Book your first lesson so we can discuss your target score, check your current skills, and make a learning plan that fits your needs.
