About Iain and Esther
Hi everyone! I’ve been teaching English for over 24 years and have been lucky enough to work in amazing places like Botswana, Dubai, and Malaysia. I absolutely love teaching, and I’m passionate about helping students grow in confidence, think independently, and enjoy learning.
Outside the classroom, I’m a big fan of football, going to the gym, and gaming on the PlayStation. Therefore, don’t be surprised if these interests sometimes make their way into our lessons! I also enjoy getting to know what you are interested in and using that to make lessons more fun, relevant, and engaging.
I have two young children, Denzel (4) and Reia (7), who keep me busy and inspired, and my wife is also a teacher. She teaches Mandarin here in Dubai. Teaching is a big part of our family life, and I bring that same energy and enthusiasm into every lesson I teach.

I am an experienced English and Literature teacher with a strong background in IB, American High School, and the British curriculum. I specialize in helping students build confidence, improve their academic writing, and achieve top grades through clear guidance and structured support.
My lessons are well-paced, engaging, and carefully differentiated to suit each learner’s needs. I focus on making learning relevant and meaningful, while also developing students’ independent thinking and inquiry skills. Therefore, my students don’t just learn what to write, but how to think critically and express their ideas effectively.
Whether your child needs exam preparation, essay writing support, or help building strong language skills, I provide a supportive and results-driven approach that helps students succeed.
