The course focuses on improving the student's understanding and overall comprehension of English grammar. It employs a selection of modern materials by Cambridge and Oxford, online resources, interactive quizzes, video and audio materials, as well as an extensive amount of creative homework. Depending on the student's proficiency level, which is determined via an online test prior to the first lesson, the course is structured and focused on boosting the student's understanding of grammar and correcting the imperfections that may have been acquired during the student's previous interactions with the language.

English Grammar Course (A1–C2)

Conversational English classes are meant to provide the grounds for the student to practice their speaking ability. The student may choose to have a free conversation or to select a predetermined topic. I will provide a selection of vocabulary items (general words, as well as phrasal verbs and idioms) that may be useful during the conversation. The student will be corrected on their grammar and pronunciation if necessary.
