My experience has been teaching to all ages, starting at age 4 and up, beginners to adults who simply wanted to have conversations with native English speakers. Lesson planning was tailored to personal preferences, whether it was conversational to grammar or vocabulary lessons. Phonetics and pronunciation are included in all lessons. Extra tutoring for exams is also available upon request.
I am a very patient person and will the time to correct pronunciation mistakes, vocabulary confusion and incorrect grammar. Speaking of mistakes, mistakes are okay! That is what learning is all about so do not try to be perfect. I will and make you perfect! From experience, I know when I have been in France or Germany, or wherever, I make mistakes when I speak French as it can be intimitating speaking to native speaking person. My goal is to remove that intimidation and fear so you can go to England, Canada, or lead a class or meeting in confidence, to impress friends, family or working peers with that newfound confidence with a new language! Tell me what your goals are and I will help you to achieve those goals. Whether the goal in basic communication or to giving a corporate presentation in front of a group of people, I want to make you feel, comfortable, calm and confident, to make you stand out from the rest of the crowd! I want to help you to achive it, to make you successful in the path that you have chosen to pursue!
