Let's meet and discuss your language goals and how we can possibly work together to achieve them! We will have an introductory conversation to get to know each other, discuss your current language level, why you want to learn the language and what would be the best plan for moving forward to reach your goals! I take post-lesson notes and offer to share a Google Doc with those notes with my students!

If you would like to practice speaking to a Native English speaker to work on your conversational skills, this is the lesson for you! We can talk about anything you'd like! We can have introductions, discuss travel related scenarios, hobbies, family, experiences, business goals and more. I can also provide a list of conversation topics prior to our lesson. I will take notes and offer any corrections and tips on pronunciation and grammar, as well as provide new vocabulary as needed! I enjoy including materials, as well, if that is beneficial to any student. This is open to all ages.

Conversational Practice

If you're interested in reaching fluency in English and would like to begin an English course tailored to your specific interests and needs, this lesson is for you! This is slightly different than the conversational practice, as I would include more materials with this lesson option. We will continue to practice speaking, but will ensure we have all of the other language skills (reading, listening, writing, grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary). You can decide what skills are the most important for you. I will continue to assess your skills throughout our lessons and share online notes and reviews of our lesson progress. We will always communicate and work together to ensure your lessons are beneficial and effective for you.

Personalized English Lesson

This course is for young learners between the age of 5 through 15. The student will have an introductory lesson for the student to get to know the teacher and the teacher to get to know the student and the student's level. A textbook with online pdfs and exercises will be utilized in lessons, with a strong focus on conversation and discussion for increased vocabulary and comfortability. Course is student-centered and flexible per learner and learner's needs.
