About
Do you want to become a confident English speaker? Now you can practise your speaking and listening skills in a safe and supportive setting with me.
Speaking is the most important English skill to acquire. By using the online classroom, we can create role play settings such as the airport, Business meeting, Shopping or meeting and making friends! I can guide you through these scenarios and help you with commonly used expressions and vocabulary so that you can gain confidence in speaking English.
Listening is the second most important skill! Conversation is a two-way process and by listening regularly to a native English speaker you will improve your understanding of the language. As a teacher I am able to adjust the vocabulary and delivery speed of my speech to suit your level so that you can understand and respond. I also have a great selection of songs that will help develop your listening (and singing!) skills.
Finally, by regularly listening to, and speaking English, so your pronunciation will naturally improve. If there are particular problems with pronunciation, such as certain letter sounds, intonation or word stress; I have a range exercises that we can also work on together to help your speech be understood.
I have had 20 years of experience in teaching English but as my online presence is relatively new, I am offering an initial lesson at no charge so that you can decide for yourself whether to continue with me as your Tutor.
Hope to hear from you very soon!
