Looking for a good chat? Well, you've found the right place :) I am an enthusiastic conversationalist with a particular interest in culture and psychology. I have studied Interior Decorating as well as Counselling, so I have a broad array of passions. My other interests include healthy living, hiking, yoga, creative arts and spirituality. I am learning German in my spare time now and can completely relate to the discomfort and awkwardness that speaking a foreign language can bring. So, no judgment here! I provide a space where mistakes are welcome. If any of this sounds good to you - feel free to send me a message or take the leap and book a lesson! :)

Me as a Teacher

I have a very calm but helpful way of teaching, I will make sure my student is on track without overwhelming them with work and expectation. I create a space where I'd hope students could ask me anything and not be embarrassed about needing more help.

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons will be casual yet filled with interesting topics and tips to assist students in their journey to fluent English speaking. I aim not to interrupt the flow of fluency and make notes about improvements so we can speak about them afterwards. I have a non-judgmental approach, so my students feel free to explore the sessions freely.

Emma is a very polite and kind instructor. She speaks English slowly, so you can take the course even if you are not fluent in English.
