Not sure what your speaking level is but want to know? Here’s your chance to find out. In this class, you’ll take a live test and get performance-based results, highlighting your speaking level based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). We'll discuss the information in your report, as well as what your level implies you can do. In addition, we'll work together to identify your needs, goals and what you can do to improve your speaking.

Are you afraid to speak because you're worried about what others will think about you if you make a mistake? Are you just shy? Let's talk about it. Fear is something most of us have or have had before. I too have had it which is why I want to help you get past it so that it doesn't stop you from reaching your goals. I'm ready to help you break through the borders of FEAR that are holding you back from speaking with the CONFIDENCE hidden within you!
