English language tuition
My students have plenty of reasons for improving their English: wanting to find a better job, needing better English in the job they already have, or just wishing to speak better English for its own sake — these are just a few!
Whatever your reason, I can help you improve. I offer one-to-one General English tuition to adults from Intermediate B1 up to Proficiency C2 level. The lessons are held via Skype.
Most of my students simply want to improve their spoken English. So, in a typical lesson you revise useful vocabulary from the previous lesson, analyse some grammar you’ve had problems with and discuss an article, video or podcast that I have emailed to you. This format gives you practice in reading about, listening to and speaking on a range of topics, extends your vocabulary and systematically reviews your grammar.
However, the lesson is yours, so if you want to focus on something else, just tell me! Other things that students want to do include checking emails or other texts, practising for job interviews and discussing language they’ve heard elsewhere.
How to arrange your first lesson
Please use the Contact form to tell me you’re interested in having lessons. I can then confirm if I’m taking new students and, if yes, give you access to my calendar. Tell me which lesson slot suits you best for regular lessons and we’ll take it from there!
The first lesson
Before we meet, I ask you to complete a placement test and needs assessment form. The test checks your language level and identifies any initial grammar problems. Based on this, I will send you some material to prepare for the first lesson. The assessment form tells me what you want from the lessons – we will confirm this during our first meeting.
Price: €45 per 60 minutes.
