I will ask you questions to find out your level of English and we can discuss what you need from English lessons. I will write a report with some suggestions for how to make progress.

Informal Tutoring

I will listen carefully and make notes and help you with grammar and pronunciation in ways which will improve your confidence and competence in conversational English. We will set specific goals for you to work on between lessons and I will check progress regularly and we will discuss progress made so that you can see and hear for yourself, how you have improved
