Could you share more about it with me?I need my english better to have a good conversation with other english speaking people, understand more and be more fluent. I need it also at my job but not on the daily basis.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards

Hi Alex,

I’m happy to hear that Paulina’s comments about my teaching style caught your interest.

I like to use authentic materials to provide students with real-life examples of English daily experiences.

My teaching style is designed for learners from A2 level, and covers topics that are current and relevant. For instance, we might read an article on a popular topic and then discuss it to enhance your understanding and vocabulary.

Additionally, we might do roleplay exercises, like conducting a meeting to practice real-life conversations and boost your fluency.

Feel free to book a trial lesson to discuss further 🙂
