Many students "just chat" in lessons but stay at the same level for years. I believe that structured classes are the best way to make real progress. Whether we follow a specific plan or have a structured conversation, I will motivate you and keep you accountable to ensure you reach your goals.

What we can do in this class:

1. Guided Conversation: I won't just talk about any topics. We are going to talk about topics and learn the vocabulary that will actually help your English.

2. Life & Immigration: We practice the English you need for real situations—like the bank or the doctor, or talking to neighbours. 

3. Travel & Culture: We learn how to navigate airports, restaurants, and social events in the UK and other countries. 

4. Natural Pronunciation: We focus on real-world sounds and British intonation so you can speak without long pauses. 

5. Honest Feedback: In every lesson, I will correct your mistakes. You will receive a note of your these corrections after every class to help you track your progress. 

** Coursebook Option: If you prefer a structured programme, we can follow a coursebook. 
** Business English: For workplace English, please book the "Interview Prep & Business Communication" class. 
** IELTS: For speaking practice, please book my "Exam Preparation" class.

My Specialisations:

IELTS: I specialise in intensive preparation, particularly for band 7.5+ in speaking and writing. Having sat the IELTS test myself several times, I understand the pressure and the exact preparation required to succeed alongside a busy life. 

I have a proven record of helping students achieve +0.5 band increase after only a few lessons with me.

OET (Occupational English Test): I have received specific teacher training for the OET and have successfully prepared medical professionals for this test.

Cambridge exams (FCE, PET and KET): I provide expert coaching for these Cambridge exams, focusing on the specific techniques needed to pass the speaking and writing sections. 

Why study with me? I know what it feels like to be the student. I can provide effective techniques, routines, and realistic advice because I have been in your shoes. I am here to support you with honest guidance throughout your journey!

What you will get:

1. Honest Feedback: Real-time corrections based on official exam criteria.
2. Technique Training: Learn how to manage your time and answer questions effectively.
3. Study Notes: You will receive a summary of corrections after every class.

Do you have friends who want to level up English with you? 
Or, do you want to meet open-minded, curious peers from around the world?
Or, simply, do you want to finally progress beyond your stagnant B2? 

This group class is for you! In these sessions, you will discuss high-level topics (society, literature, current issues), learn advanced vocabulary, and put it into practice with motivated classmates.

The format: 
- 48 hours before the class: You will receive a curated "Topic Dossier" with an article/video and a specialised C1 vocabulary list.

- In the class: A moderated, goal-oriented discussion. I facilitate the flow to ensure everyone uses advanced structures (hedging, idioms, and complex collocations).

- Notes: Every session ends with a 10-minute feedback loop on your grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary choices.

Who this is for: Motivated learners, PhD candidates, and professionals (Tech, Finance, Research) who need to command a room in English.

Max 5 students per group.

What makes this different?
I don’t believe in "just chatting." Because I prefer a structured, goal-oriented approach, this class is designed for students who actually want to work. You get the benefits of a social environment with the academic rigor of a Cambridge-certified teacher.
