When you speak English, do people give you blank stares? Even when you know you used correct grammar?
Maybe your pronunciation needs some work. English isn’t like other languages. It's a rhythm-based language, and vowels are pronounced many different ways. Using incorrect rhythm, or changing the meaning of words by pronouncing them incorrectly can causing blank stares.
As a certified TEFL teacher, I've been teaching students all over the world for years. I have lots of tools and I love designing classes to fit your needs.
Let's have a video chat to get acquainted. I'm pretty sure I can reduce blank stares in your life.
I design my classes to address your problems specifically, so none of my classes are exactly alike. The things I like most about my classes are those moments when my students make real progress. Learning a second language is very challenging--but it can also be something to celebrate!
Because pronunciation is so intricate and complicated, it is something that must be learned with a lot of practice. In my classes, I listen carefully to my students' pronunciation, word stress, sentence stress and use of elisions, and I design materials to help them improve.My teaching material

Beki is a great teacher for pronunciation. Her explanations are clear and easy to follow, and she’s very patient in correcting my sounds and intonation. Highly recommend her if you’re looking to improve your spoken English.

Beki's class has been a real pleasure. She pointed to my pronunciation mistakes I wasn't aware of and guided me on the ways of working on them. This was the goal of my taking her class. In addition, she is a very interesting, friendly, and open-minded conversationalist.
