Class description

Join me on a journey through British music, but not as you know it! We go a little bit underground to discover the not-so-well-known artists who have shaped British culture, from the 1960s to present. In this introductory class, we will learn about each other, how to describe our tastes, and what words to use to say what we like and what we don't like. You will leave the class with new vocabulary, new synonyms - and some new music to listen to as well!

After this class, you’ll have learned

New ways to talk about likes and dislikes (beyond "I like / I don't like"), greater fluency when talking about music tastes and genres, more confidence when using sophisticated grammar forms ("If I was a rap fan, I'd like this...", "I used to listen to music like this when I was younger...", "I have never heard anything like this before", etc)

Away with textbooks: let's make learning interesting!

I have been delivering one on one sessions online for around 13 years and I have learnt a lot of things from my students in that time. In particular, I am interested in offering students basic cultural knowledge and understanding, so that they may understand the references and tone of a conversation between native speakers. I also believe that in an increasingly integrated world, in which questions of politics, music, sport and culture happen on a global level, students should feel able to participate in those conversations. I am also keen on the art of error correction - when to correct and when not to correct.
