About My British English
Hello, I’m John Davies. I’m a British English teacher, university professor, and language coach with over 18 years of teaching experience helping students improve their confidence, fluency, and communication skills.
I hold an MA in TESOL and a CELTA qualification and have taught thousands of lessons to learners from around the world. Over the years, I have worked with university students, business professionals, IELTS candidates, and adults seeking to improve their English for work, study, travel, and everyday life.
I have delivered more than 3,000 online lessons to learners from a wide range of cultural and professional backgrounds.
I created My British English to provide practical, supportive, and professional English coaching that helps learners communicate naturally and confidently in real-world situations.
Whether your goal is to improve your IELTS Speaking score, communicate more effectively at work, prepare for studying abroad, or simply become a more confident English speaker, I aim to provide clear guidance, personalised feedback, and lessons that produce real results.
My teaching philosophy is simple: confidence comes from competence. Through consistent practice, constructive feedback, and a supportive learning environment, every student can make meaningful progress.
I look forward to helping you achieve your English language goals.

What services do you offer?
I offer personalised coaching in British English, IELTS preparation, Business English, and everyday communication skills. Whether your goal is to improve fluency, achieve a higher IELTS score, communicate confidently at work, or prepare for studying abroad, lessons are tailored to your individual needs.
How can I prepare for the IELTS speaking & writing test effectively?
Effective IELTS preparation requires more than simply practising English. Students need to understand the IELTS assessment criteria, develop stronger fluency and coherence, improve their writing and speaking skills, expand their vocabulary, and build confidence under test conditions. Through my lessons and IELTS Speaking and Writing Accelerator programmes, I provide practical strategies, realistic practice, personalised feedback, and clear guidance to help students achieve their target band score.
How do your programmes work?
My British English programmes combine self-paced video training, practical exercises, and expert guidance. Students learn at their own pace while developing real-world English skills through structured lessons, homework, and feedback. Depending on the programme, students may also have access to group coaching sessions, optional one-to-one support, and the My British English community, where learners can connect, ask questions, and support each other’s progress.
What level of English do I need to join?
My programmes and lessons are suitable for learners from beginner to advanced levels. Whether you are preparing for IELTS, improving your Business English, or building confidence in everyday communication, I will recommend the most appropriate learning pathway for your current level and goals.
How do I get started?
Getting started is simple. Contact me to arrange a free grammar assessment and English level evaluation. Once I have reviewed your results, we’ll discuss your strengths, areas for improvement, and learning goals during your Personal English Assessment.
Based on your assessment, I will recommend the most suitable learning pathway, whether that’s IELTS preparation, Business English, British English Fluency, or personalised coaching.
Together, we’ll create a clear plan to help you achieve your goals with confidence and measurable progress.
