This trial lesson is not just a “get to know you” chat. It’s a guided introduction to your English journey with me and The Immersion Studio. In 30 minutes, we’ll:

     - Explore your goals, background, and experiences with English.

     - Identify your strengths and the obstacles keeping you from feeling fluent.

     - Experience a short sample activity so you can see how I teach and how The Fluent Framework works in practice.

     - Finish with a personalized Fluency Road Map — a plan with recommended lesson tracks, focus areas, and next steps.

You’ll leave this session with clarity about your English, a fresh sense of direction, and practical takeaways you can use right away.

Why book a trial?

Many students waste time bouncing between teachers, unsure if they’re actually making progress. My trial is designed to be different — it’s not about testing me, it’s about discovering whether this approach resonates with you. Even if you decide not to continue, you’ll still walk away with a clearer understanding of your English journey.

Stop translating in your head.
Learn to understand English directly and naturally.
Build real comprehension through immersion and patterns.

~~

This course helps you move out of translation mode and into direct English processing. Instead of thinking in your native language first, you’ll learn how to recognize patterns, build strong input habits, and let understanding come naturally. Ideal for intermediate learners who understand English but still feel mentally tired or slow when using it.

Thinking in English | Stop translating. Start understanding.

Grammar doesn’t have to feel confusing or restrictive.
Learn how grammar actually works in real English.
Focus on meaning, not memorization.

~~~

This course reframes grammar as a tool for expression, not a list of rules. You’ll learn to notice how native speakers use grammar to show intention, emotion, and perspective — so you can use it naturally yourself. Perfect for learners who “know the rules” but struggle to apply them when speaking.

Grammar That Makes Sense | Learn grammar through meaning, not rules.

Stop memorizing word lists you forget.
Learn vocabulary you’ll actually use.
Build a personal, meaningful English word bank.

~~~

Instead of flashcards and random lists, this course teaches you how to collect vocabulary from your real life and interests. You’ll learn how to notice, remember, and reuse words naturally through context and emotion — so vocabulary becomes something you own, not something you cram.

Vocabulary That Sticks | Learn words you’ll remember and actually use.

Stop freezing when it’s time to speak.
Speak with confidence — even when you’re not perfect.
Build comfort, spontaneity, and flow.

~~~

This course focuses on the emotional side of speaking. You’ll learn how to think out loud, respond naturally, handle mistakes calmly, and trust your voice in real conversations. Ideal for learners who understand English well but feel anxious, blocked, or overly careful when speaking.

Confidence in Conversation | Speak naturally, not perfectly.

Go beyond small talk and basic answers.
Learn to express who you are in English.
Share your experiences with clarity and feeling.

~~~

This course helps you use English as a tool for self-expression. You’ll learn how to talk about your life, memories, opinions, and identity in a way that feels natural and human — not robotic or like a textbook. Best for learners who want deeper conversations and more meaningful connections.

Tell Your Story in English | Express who you are, not just what you know.

Stuck at intermediate...B1 or B2 level?
Make English part of your daily life.
Stop studying — start living in English.

~~~

This course is designed to help you break the intermediate plateau by redesigning your habits. You’ll learn how to integrate English into your routine through listening, reading, speaking, and thinking — so progress comes from daily life, not constant studying.

Everyday English | Break the intermediate plateau and use English daily.

Understand what English really means in context.
Learn the unspoken rules of American communication.
Go beyond accuracy to real belonging.

~~~

This course focuses on cultural fluency — how tone, social norms, humor, and expectations shape meaning in American English. You’ll learn why things are said the way they are, how to read between the lines, and how to sound more natural in real-life situations.

Context Clues: American English & Culture | Understand how English really works in daily life.

Through this 120 hour TESOL course, I learned the basics of linguistics, strategies that would help me use a student’s primary language to teach them a new language, and how to motivate students who are new to the English language.

As a high school student, I was dual-enrolled in a college, allowing me to earn college credits and complete a college degree by the time I was 18 years old.

For two years, prior to receiving a professional English teaching certificate, I worked as a tutor for students at the local community college who acquired English as a second language.  We focused mainly on academic English - grammar concepts and improving our conversation skills.  I had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of students from different backgrounds, though the majority of my students spoke Spanish as their native language

For four years, I worked as a private ESL tutor for adults who were moving from other countries to the United States for education and secular work opportunities.  Many of these ones had a basic level of English, so to assist them with the transition to a new country, they were assigned to work with a tutor to improve their skills in basic communication and pronunciation.
