This type of lesson is designed to create a relaxed and supported environment so you can practice speaking your target language in a free, but guided manner. We agree on the desired speaking topic in advance and I propose a text and questions in advance , including a word list to keep the conversation flowing and your vocabulary growing.

In this type of lesson, I will explain the basics in a clear manner with lots of examples from life and work. Study materials are provided. Good grammar is like good bones - necessary. The more you use both of them, the stronger they become.

These lessons are intended to help you to improve your business language skills across the board. I provide you with a grammar and writing evaluation in advance to assess your starting level. Over the course of the lessons we will work on the four pillars of successful communication: Reading comprehension, writing, speaking and listening comprehension. Additional highlights include negotiating, agreeing and disagreeing, business-related phrasal verbs, talking about trends, preparing presentations, etc.

Here we will cover the tricky parts of English grammar, especially the topics that you hated in school. Topics include tenses (even the tricky ones ;-), the conditional forms, the English subjunctive, intransitive and transitive verbs, prepositions, phrasal verbs, and much more.

Students will learn and practice the sounds of the English language to improve confidence and proficiency. Topics covered: vowel and consonant sounds and clusters, minimal pairs, the unstressed English vowel sound (aka Schwa), connected speech, everything you need to know about the -th sounds, the English "L" sounds, intonation and melody. This class is usually a lot of fun. Serious, but fun.

This course is for beginners with no, or very little prior knowledge of the German language. These lessons follow the CEFR guidelines supported by level-appropriate material from a well-respected textbook series made up of 12 units, as well as original teacher-created materials. This course can be modified to meet the needs of learners wishing to "freshen up" their German.

This is a space for you to practice speaking German. Generally, we agree on a topic and we discuss it in detail with questions and answers. This is an opportunity to practice your reading skills and hone your German accent. Any correction are made gently and included in a written document for you for future use.
