I am a British PhD with degrees from the universities of London, Jerusalem, and Cambridge. Author of 'Israel and the Cold War: Diplomacy, Strategy, and the Policy of the Periphery at the United Nations' (I. B. Tauris/Palgrave Macmillan, 2013), I have written for several academic journals and newspapers and reviewed for the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Chatham House. I was the first recipient of the Mikardo scholarship awarded by the British Foreign Office, and, whilst at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, I was awarded a Golda Meir Fellowship. Whilst at Cambridge, I won a Donner prize in Atlantic Studies. In addition to the subjects listed below, I tutor in International Relations and Middle Eastern Studies, and I'm happy to consider all enquiries within my general areas of interest and experience. I am also available for dissertation consultation, proofreading, and help in exam and essay writing.
A former Teaching Fellow at King's College London, I have taught MA courses on the Arab-Israeli conflict, US and British Foreign Policy, War and Peace in the Middle East, and Inter-Faith Relations. A fluent Hebrew speaker, I was Peer Tutor in Hebrew at University College London, where I was awarded the departmental prize for excellence in the Hebrew language. I have tutored privately abroad, as well as in Britain, and have an immensely successful record with my tutees. In addition to online tuition throughout the academic year, I also offer intensive tuition during school and university holidays, which both tutees and parents find particularly useful for preparation, consolidation of knowledge and, if need be, to get a tutee back on track. For peace of mind, I have an enhanced DBS check, and am subscribed to the annual update service.
Tuition Approach.
Patient, understanding, relaxed, interactive, theme-based, and multi-disciplinary. Use of past papers, analysis, deconstruction of exam and essay questions, concepts, and requirements, development of essay and exam structure. I pay particular attention to a student's self-confidence and self-expression, which often serve as catalysts for enhanced self-belief and success.

Salut! / Hola!! I`m Fabian. I`m a native and qualified teacher of French (with Spanish). I grew up in Paris and got a PGCE in Foreign Languages at the UEA in Norwich. Teaching is my passion!! I have more than 20 years experience in the field. I have worked in high schools and for business companies in France, Spain, Portugal and the UK.
I love to share my culture and knowledge of the languages I teach. I usually have a communicative approach and try to use authentic and interesting material. I truly believe that having meaningful conversations is the best way to improve one's language skills. And in the context of real conversations, , we can also improve your grammar, pronunciation and general accuracy in the language.
I can also adapt my classes to the needs of each student (business French / Spanish, conversational, preparation for interviews or examinations)
I also teach Spanish at all levels. I have lived 7 years in Spain and have a C2 level. A bientot! Hasta luego! Fabian

I'm passionate about all things English and will happily share this love with everyone eager and interested. I have experience in teaching both offline and online classes and individual students. I build my lessons around the needs of a particular group of learners/students taking into account strengths and areas for improvement. In my teaching, I rely on a communicative approach and use textbooks from leading publishing companies, such as Pearson, Oxford, and Macmillan and adapt them as necessary to address the needs of my learners. I'm also experienced in preparing young learners for their first Cambridge exams and helping individual learners prepare for B2 and CAE exams.
Being a CELTA-certified teacher, I use best practices in the framework of the communicative approach, help learners understand how they learn more effectively and am flexible and adaptable to address learners' needs.
