How lessons work

Talk via Skype

Talk to me in your English lesson using Skype. Enjoy high quality audio in your lesson using a tool that most people already have and know how to use. Message me if you need to talk about lessons too!

Shared screen

You will be able to see your lesson in real-time using the screen-sharing feature on Skype. You will see real-time feedback on your screen from my computer and even be able to use video in your lessons!

Feedback on your English

During a lesson, I will listen to how you use English and give you feedback on your vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. I will make notes in a lesson document which I send after the lesson.

Fully customised lessons

My lessons will be 100% customised to your learning needs. This means you will only practise what you need to practise and nothing else. Customised lessons mean you take control of your learning.

Dialogue based learning

My teaching is based on communication with the learner. This means you will be practising your speaking skills at all times in a lesson and learning to improve skills in a natural context.

Get lesson after class

Your lesson is recorded in a Microsoft Word format. This means you will have organised, well-presented lesson notes in every class which will be shared with you or sent to you by email after the lesson.

Paypal or credit card

You can pay for lessons using either your Paypal account or a credit card. To buy lessons simply visit the shop page in the website. Invoices can be provided for your company if required. 100% secure.

Flexible lesson length

In most systems, you can’t choose how long your lessons are. In my system you can choose how long you want your lessons to be. Choose either 30, 45 or 60 minute lessons when you buy your package.

Easy lesson bookings

You can book your lessons yourself using my website. It’s an easy to use and understand system. Visit the book page to book your lessons or cancel lessons when you need to using the same page.

How to start

Apply for free consultation

Try first with a free consultation via Skype. In the consultation, you can see how everything works and we can talk more about your learning objectives. Visit the Contact page to apply for your free consultation.

Schedule a time

After I receive your application, I will reply to you via email to schedule a time for your free consultation. I will also add you to my Skype contacts list so that we’ll be ready to talk to each other on Skype.

Buy your lessons

Before you start studying with me, you will need to buy your lessons. You can do this from my site by using the shop. You can pay using your Paypal account or a credit card through Paypal. Fully secure payments!

What you need

Skype

Use Skype to talk to me in a lesson. This will give us the best audio quality in our lessons so we can hear each other clearly. Download Skype for free from the Skype website.

Good Internet connection

You will need a good, stable Internet connection. When we meet for our demo class, we can test your Internet connection to see if it’s fast enough for online English lessons.

Headset microphone

A headset microphone will give you the best possible audio quality in your lessons. It will be much better if you use a headset and not the built-in microphone on your tablet or PC.
