I specialize in Conversational English lessons priced at $6 for single lessons and $5 for package lessons. My background is centered on communication and working with people from different industries.
In our lessons you will:
• Learn practical everyday phrases & vocabulary
• Speak with confidence in real-life situations with active correction
• Improve grammar & pronunciation step by step
• Strengthen listening skills & understand native speakers better
• Prepare for travel, work, or study abroad
Speaking a new language can feel stressful, so I create a friendly and relaxed environment where mistakes are part of learning.
My professional experience includes hotel management and running my own business. These roles taught me clear communication, problem solving, and how to support people effectively. I now use this experience to help students build confidence, fluency, and natural expression in English.
My lessons are conversation-based, patient, and supportive. I use slides, photos, and short video clips to keep lessons practical and engaging. I focus on helping you think in English instead of translating, so you can respond faster and speak more naturally. Each lesson includes review, guided practice, and free conversation time to help you use new language immediately.
What you can expect:
• Plenty of speaking practice
• Live correction of grammar and pronunciation
• Useful language for daily life & work
• Positive, comfortable lessons adapted to your goals & level
