C2 Proficiency Grade A, Cambridge |Textbook Plan| Students stay 350+ lessons English Fluency Through Psychology-Based Activation Since 1984, I’ve helped students turn passive knowledge into fluent speech through a clear, structured English course—not random conversation. My method uses activation principles from educational psychology to help you retrieve words faster, speak more naturally, and build real fluency through guided practice. My course is divided into eight levels and uses eight books, with lessons based on Oxford and Cambridge textbooks. We work on reading, listening, speaking, writing, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. Speaking is central because the goal is not just to understand English, but to activate it in real communication. I hold Cambridge C2 Proficiency (Grade A), the Cambridge Teaching Knowledge Test (top grades in three modules), and seven postgraduate diplomas, including English Language Teaching Methodology, Educational Psychology, Neuropsychopedagogy, and Neuroscience. I’m also doing a bachelor’s degree in Speech Therapy, which gives me deeper insight into language acquisition, pronunciation, and how the brain processes language. My method combines books, structure, speaking practice, and educational psychology. I help you activate what you know, build confidence, and speak more naturally. My long-term students often stay for 350+ lessons because they see steady progress. Many students have achieved top exam scores, received promotions, and successfully immigrated. Please read their stories in my feedback.

Professional teacher with eight+ years of ESL experience As a teacher, I try my best to create a friendly, welcoming space for you to learn English. I know how nerve-wracking it can be as a language learner, no matter what level you are, and so I want you to feel happy and comfortable during our lessons to make mistakes and not feel embarrassed. Making mistakes with me is the best thing you can do as I'll correct you (nicely, of course!) and help you stop making that mistake again. All of this will be done naturally as I don't want anyone to feel overwhelmed by English, particularly when speaking with me. Due to my style of teaching and personal preference, I do not teach children.
