Taylor Mcginnes

Native British English Teacher | General & Business English | 9 Years’ Experience

Hi! I’m Taylor, a native English speaker from the UK with 9 years of ESL teaching experience, including 7 years teaching online.

I’ve taught children, teenagers and adults across Europe and Asia, and I currently work with learners in Poland. My lessons are relaxed, practical and highly personalised — I don’t believe every student should be pushed through exactly the same textbook.

For adults, I offer General English, conversation and Business English, including support with meetings, presentations, emails, client communication, professional vocabulary and building confidence at work. Before becoming an English teacher, I worked in the investment and insurance sectors in Glasgow, so my Business English teaching is supported by real professional experience.
I also work extensively with children and teenagers, creating lessons around their interests and learning goals to help them become more confident and natural English speakers.

I use resources including Off2Class, Linguahouse and TED materials, but I also design much of my own material specifically for individual students.

I can help with:
- General and conversational English
- Business English and professional communication
- Speaking confidence and fluency
- Vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation
- English for meetings, presentations and client communication
- Teen and young learner English
- Individual learning programmes

Qualifications: Advanced 120+ hour TEFL Certificate and Higher National Diploma in Practical Journalism.

Lessons are online and taught in a friendly, supportive atmosphere. Whether you want to feel more comfortable speaking English at work, improve your everyday communication or simply stop translating every sentence in your head, we can build the lessons around you.
