Carlota's testimonial
"Working with Barnaby completely changed the way I approach learning English. Rather than simply teaching me the language, he taught me how to learn it more effectively.
​
Of course, improving your English requires vocabulary, grammar and training your ear to understand native speakers. But Barnaby helped me realise that progress doesn't have to mean spending endless hours memorising everything or feeling that you need to know every word before you can communicate confidently.
His coaching helped me understand what I actually need to focus on, which strategies I can rely on and how to use what I already know more effectively. Most importantly, he taught me how to keep communicating when I don't know the exact word or structure I need, instead of getting stuck.
This has made a real difference professionally. I can focus on the key points of a conversation or work meeting without needing to understand every single word, and I have more tools to express myself when I don't have the perfect vocabulary.
​
Barnaby is much more than an English teacher - he is a coach who teaches you how to become a more independent and confident learner. That has made improving my English much more manageable and far less frustrating."

Sílvia's testimonial
"From my personal experience, I highly recommend following Barney Griffiths’ guidance, whether you’re a teacher or a student. It’s a very different way of learning to speak English rather than ‘studying English’. Infinitely better, more efficient and more enjoyable."
