About Me

◉ Traditional textbooks don't make you hungry for more
◉ so I created an entertaining storytelling-based course

◉ while leaving you wondering what will happen next in the learning story
◉ all materials are included in my classes: PDFs with exercises, audio files, books, and an awesome flashcard app with a private classroom

◾ Learn grammar and new words in small steps
I give you episodes of the learning story I created. PDFs and audio files. Each teaches you a few new words and a little piece of grammar in an entertaining way.
◾ Long-term vocabulary study
You get access to an app with my private vocabulary course. You'll find the words and phrases from our lessons there, adapted for easy learning. And I review them with you at the beginning of each class so you know how to actually use them.
◾ Flexibility
You can bring up your own ideas and materials. We can use books, dialogs, podcasts, online exercises, for example.
◾ Homework
I prepare homework for you, based on your needs.
