Book a trial lesson to discuss your goals, preferences, and language level! We can get to know each other and see what you want to work on in future lessons.

Benvenuti to the English café! Here we'll craft your ideal English learning experience. Here's a taste of what's available:

☕️ Do you want to have spontaneous chats to practice your conversational English? Be prepared to talk! In this lesson, you are the barista - the architect of your own learning and success. I will encourage you and we will address vocabulary and difficulties as they arise.
✨As a slight modification, we can choose a specific topic to focus on.

☕️ Do you prefer a bit more structure to a lesson? I have a few options for you! 

A] Guided conversation classes on various topics. I will send you a few options and let you choose before the lesson. This requires no preparation on your part, just show up and engage!

B] 'Reading Club': You will receive a choice of articles, choose one that piques your interest, read the article before the lesson, then we will discuss it together and ensure you not only understand the article, but can confidently speak about the topic thereafter.

C] Lessons personalized to your specific needs. We will work on the 4 skills (reading, listening, speaking, writing) and the 3 systems (grammar, vocabulary, functional language). 

☕️ Do you have material you want to bring to the table and get practice with? Great! Let me know what you have prepared so we can discuss and refine it.

‼️ Must be strong A2-B1. If below (A1-A2), we will focus primarily on the systems needed at lower levels before true skills and conversational abilities are feasible.

The Business Blend |💼| Mini-Courses for Business-Related English

This option serves as: 1) A trial lesson if you are new to me OR 2) A one-time discounted lesson offer after your trial lesson with me. If the lesson serves as a trial, I will send you a Google Form document to complete prior to our lesson (a needs analysis).

If you are a new student to me, or have only done a trial lesson, you can book this lesson option ONE time and then continue future lessons with: The English Cafe |☕| or a mini course.

I will create a Google Doc for you as I do for all of my students. There, you will see a summary of our lesson, words/phrases that you did well with or struggled with, and some feedback.
