Welcome to the Library
A cosy English classroom in Minoh, Osaka, where you’ll learn British English with an Eton and Cambridge-educated tutor.
Meet Angus
Your British English tutor
I’ve always loved meeting people from around the world – and language has always been the key to that.
Born in London, I studied at Eton and Cambridge before working across Asia – in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore. I moved to Osaka in 2016 with my family (time flies!) – my wife’s from Minoh, and it’s been a lovely place to raise our two daughters.
I can help you put together a course that works for you. Feel free to pop by and say hello.

How I teach
Every student is different – here’s how I'll tailor your sessions
Adults

Build everyday confidence with personalised sessions. We can focus on travel, conversation, current events – whatever suits your goals.
We’ll use real-life materials like podcasts, news articles or UK-based textbooks (English File, English for Everyone) to guide natural, engaging discussion.
Learn in a way that works for you, at your own pace.
Kids

Supportive, structured lessons that build vocabulary, reinforce schoolwork, and help kids use English with confidence.
I use fun, varied resources from Twinkl – a UK platform aligned with British school standards – to keep kids engaged while progressing step by step.
I can also support exam preparation, including Eiken and TOEIC, as well as school interviews. Just ask.
Business
At the Library or at your office
I’ve worked in corporate settings, so I focus on the English you actually use at work – for meetings, emails, presentations and more.
Lessons are tailored to your role and industry, using practical tools like roleplays, useful phrases and scenario-based tasks.
I also offer copywriting and proofreading support for businesses – just get in touch.
