What are the “brain hacking” techniques for fast, most efficient learning? These are my main professional interests. I help my students to start using English sooner for their work, study, business, travel or to create. My lessons are always focused on communication, designed for the level and the goals of my students. Every student is different, so the study process must be flexible. I listen to my students carefully to adapt to their needs and make changes to keep the study process effective and enjoyable.
Every lesson is about a specific real thing that you want to do in English: find the best train tickets, make a business presentation, write an email to a customer, be successful in an exam, create an Instagram post or negotiate the best price. Each lesson is a module, which can be extended and reviewed later. We will practice a task, learn new words and structures, chec...Mijn lesmateriaal

I feel so lucky to have found a teacher like Lana. It’s now more than one year and a half of constant lessons, mainly focused on pronunciation.
I see big improvements in both my accent and in my abilities to understand native speakers, and I am way more confident when I use English in my life now, especially at work.
It’s a long journey through the details of the English language and it’s definitely worth it.
Lana is extremely professional and tailors her lessons according to the students’ needs and their weak points.

She is flexible and willing to adapt to my goals and preferences. We can discuss any topic — she is always happy to keep the conversation going and support my speaking practice. She is also always available and responsive. The lessons are motivating and enjoyable.
