Enjoy a 30 minute session where we can discuss your language goals and you can check me out to see if I am the right teacher for you!

What do you want to achieve in English? How will you know when you have achieved your goals? Whether you want to focus on pronunciation, specific situations (eg making small talk/English for travel/keeping up with discussions/preparing for an interview), learning new vocabulary and expressions, or just enjoying extending your English with an experienced teacher, I can help you with fun and effective lessons.  Bring me your goals, and we can work on them together. 
Additionally, for higher levels, learn and use idioms and colloquial expressions to sound more natural and explore different levels of formality. 
For lower levels, learn how to avoid simple mistakes and grow in confidence. 
Enjoyable, stimulating and effective conversation lessons tailored to your needs, with feedback, error correction and practice materials.

General English: What do you want to be able to do in English?

I will edit and polish your written work. From reports, research papers and essays to articles and books.
