Advice on successful language learning
โ
I specialise in pronunciation as I believe this is the key to being easily understood, and I studied linguistics and phonetics as part of my degree.
๐ฉ๐ฝ๐ง๐ป: we can have a relaxed conversation about anything that interests you, and work on any new vocabulary, grammar points or errors that arise, or we can have a more structured lesson using authentic resources to improve your speaking, listening, reading and/or writing skills
๐ง๐ฝ๐ฆ๐ผ: I use puppets, toys, props, games, stories and songs so children learn English in a natural and fun way!Certificates

I was impressed when I heard my daughter reading an English book about a Gingerbread man on her own during her lesson with Melanie! She made a huge progress.
