Chris is a teacher & teacher-trainer who has been working in EFL for more than 20 years.

He started out his career in Leicester, UK where he gained an MA in Applied Linguistics and TESOL, before working for many years as a tutor at the University. During his time there, he was responsible for designing the summer pre-sessional course for budding international undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as offering in-sessional guidance by way of tutorial and seminar support. 

Since he has been in Greece, Chris has worked as a senior teacher at a well-established language institution with particular responsibility for the establishment of a branch aimed at adults involving the development of a range of ESP courses. As well as this he has also worked as a trained examiner for English language exams.

Chris’ main area of interest is maximising effective oral interaction in the classroom and offering expertise in how the teacher can best juggle the many different roles they have to play in the communicative classroom. Also, his extensive experience in the UK makes him well-placed to offer advice on EAP and how teachers can develop their students’ study skills.

Outside of work, Chris is a man of simple pleasures, he loves sport, especially tennis, he is an ever-improving chef and his children have seen that his talents with Lego know no limits!

Chris, welcome on board!
