I can assist you in improving your command of the English language by engaging in conversations on various topics. To be proficient in any given language, I believe you must begin communicating and interacting with someone who is either a native speaker or fluent in the language. Most of the time in my class, I will employ the conversational method. I am open to requests that would benefit your learning objectives.
