Let's see if my teaching style works for you! A trial lesson is a great way to test if my materials and class structure suits your learning preferences.

Sometimes you just need the opportunity to speak so here is where you want to be. Any topic you are interested in, just let me know or we can let the conversation flow naturally. I will help with pronunciation and make suggestions to improve grammar and vocabulary choices.

Informal Conversation

Just want to improve your overall English ability? This course is for you. We'll develop all aspects of your language use but we can easily tailor the lessons to focus on your interests and needs. 
I'll use a variety of sources including textbooks, videos and real life examples.

General English

Need to learn how to write an essay for university? How do you properly reference your writing to avoid plagiarism? How to explain your ideas clearly in a presentation? Or how to read and write analytically and critically? University can be a bit overwhelming so these classes are designed to help you learn the skills you need and increase your confidence either before you start or to support you while you're studying.

Academic English

Are you studying or interested in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) fields? Let's work together to build you awareness of STEM vocabulary, grammar, concepts, and text types. We can either use STEM as a topic area to develop your general English skills, or we can instead help you develop your communication for work or study.

English for STEM

Are you trying to prepare for an IELTS exam so that you can study abroad? Let me help you achieve the scores you need. I have successfully helped students develop the skills and confidence they need to obtain the academic IELTS bands they need for their future study goals.

This certificate helped me reacquaint myself with the IELTS test as I've not taught it in some years and am about to in my job once again. It involved learning about the structure of the exams, what skills are being tested as well as teaching techniques and suggestions to help students acquire the skills they need for each part of the test.
