Learn to speak with creative lessons: authentic materials + efficient progress + fun +deep thinking. I have seven years of experience teaching students of all ages. I am a successful language learner myself, so I understand the process and how to make it easier. My lessons include a mixture of hyper-focused work and fun. You will speak, speak, speak in every class! I believe that learning a language is as much about what you do outside of class as about what you do in class. To this end, I provide homework materials to work on outside of class, based on your needs and free time you can devote to English. This extra practice allows for more efficient lessons. I would describe myself as laid-back and serious at the same time. I like to have fun in lessons, but I also believe that we can get serious work done while laughing. I believe that the most important thing about learning a language is practice: Learning a language is a lot like exercise. To master it, you need targeted practice using language in context. My goal is for you to develop automatic fluency, where you can speak without pausing to think. My approach varies based on level and student needs. Lower-level students generally need more explicit grammar practice than higher-level students, whose classes often resemble a podcast conversation. At all levels, the goal is to master material to the point it becomes automatic: that way, when you need to use English, you can speak comfortably and without worrying about what to say next. Please choose Zoom as your lesson tool if possible, as it is my preferred platform.
