Hone Your Skills, and Correct Your Grammar along the Way!

​
​I've recently come across a lot of students who can read and write extremely well in English but find it difficult to speak fluently without struggling or stumbling. Many of them have a good understanding of written English and English grammar but find it difficult to express themselves in conversation. 

As a teacher with four years of drama and voice training, I'm able to help my students to work on their speaking and presentation skills so that they build confidence quickly, and become relaxed English speakers, rather than students who can easily pass exams on paper but who panic and freeze in conversation. 

If you book lessons with me I can help you with the following, if required:

  • Practice your English speaking by role-playing practical, real life situations
  • Practice using Idioms and phrasal verbs to increase your ability to speak naturally and effortlessly
  • Have fun learning informal English, using scripts from TV comedies or plays
  • Revise essential grammar, to ensure accurate speaking
  • Prepare for the IELTS speaking exam using typical IELTS exam questions ​
  • Study vocabulary relevant to your sector of business, and role-play tricky corporate scenarios with me
  • Work on a business presentation or speech
  • Chat naturally and simply on a range of topics, ensuring that you quickly become more confident in all your communications with native speakers
  • Brush up on your debating skills, by reading quality newspapers and discussing the issues of the day
