How it works
Lessons
One-to-one lessons
Learning one-to-one is the fastest and most effective way for someone to learn a language. In my one-to-one lessons, you learn about English and practise it at the same time because you are talking with me in your lessons. This makes one-to-one lessons very practical. Learning this way is very intensive but it soon becomes a very enjoyable and natural way to learn. In a one-to-one lesson you only focus on what you need to learn not what the course book thinks you need to learn. Contact me for more information!

Group lessons
Do you have friends or family you would like to study with? Group lessons can offer you a more cost effective way to study English that is more social too. With group lessons you can get 30-50% discounts on the price of group lessons compared to one-to-one lessons. A minimum of two and a maximum of four students can study together in a group using Zoom software which lets you see everybody else in the group by video. I am a very experienced group teacher so I know how to make sure everybody in a group gets a chance to speak and share the time equally with everybody else. Contact me for more information!

Exam English
Preparing one-to-one for an exam like IELTS or First Certificate is better than studying in a group in a classroom because it’s much more intensive. Studying in one-to-one exams lessons mean you only focus on what you need to learn. And it’s better than studying alone because I can help you find focus and structure in your learning by offering expert advice and tips to help you pass your exam with confidence. Exam English lessons are available one-to-one or in a group format with a maximum of four students. Contact me for more information!
