Effortless English Language Learning

is my favourite method of teaching people USEFUL English to help them become confident English speakers fast, without studying or effort.

Here is how you will learn if you choose to take this Course:
During each session:

STEP 1: I ask you "appropriate" questions to what's most important to you in your life.

STEP 2: You reply as good as you can.

STEP 3: I correct your English where necessary, your pronunciation if needed, and help you say what you actually are trying to say (FYI: I have 18 years of experience in teaching English ).

STEP 4: Together we create a script, a piece of text, for your next 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 5: After the session I professionally record your tailor-made 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 6: Your task is to listen to that ListeningExercise for 10 minutes every day with headphones.

STEP 7: A week later (or less), you take your next session with me where you show me how well you can say your 1-minute English ListeningExercise from memory and we repeat the process.

It doesn't matter if you have a beginner or mid-intermediate English level, if you follow these steps, then there is no need to focus on English grammar or sentence structure because that will come automatically to you.

That's what I want for you:
to acquire a natural English awareness that is focused and useful to your situation in your life, not mine, so that you can become the confident English speaker you intend to become and USE the English you've learnt on a daily basis.

I'll be there for you as your English language coach and lift you up each time you need it or request it.

So if you are looking for a 5-star teacher to improve your English fast, I AM that guy.
That may sound arrogant but I strongly believe in myself and my teaching methods.
And this is what sets me apart from rest.

And if you also believe I am all of that, and you are committed to learning English and know what you want in life and where you're going, I am sure you'll give it a try.

Life is simple.

Biology, physics, chemistry and French and English. The best study results are achieved with regular study and keeping up with the study material. Lack of sufficient basis for progress can be remedied. Through years of experience I have developed a coaching method in which the pupil, student or coachee as a person is central with an eye for context and specific circumstances.

Hi! I’m a triplelingual Korean–Japanese–English instructor with years of experience in teaching, translation, and interpretation.

Every class is fully personalised to your needs: whether you’re preparing for an exam, a daily conversation, or professional use, etc.

What you’ll get:
1. Step-by-step grammar practice: Solid knowledge of grammar is key to understanding a language.
2. Choose your preferred accent: British accent vs. American accent.
As I am from both backgrounds, you can choose and see the difference.

I especially enjoy working with students who:
1. Are curious about learning new things
2. Want to sound more natural
3. Prefer patient, encouraging guidance rather than pressure

Let’s start where you are and grow from there!

Conversation lessons focus on real exchange:
- discussing topics that interest you

Academic writing support is based on your own texts (essays, papers, theses, dissertations):
- improving clarity, structure, and coherence
- refining style and tone
- correcting grammar and idiomatic usage
- developing a more professional, natural written voice

Lessons can take place online, in a public space, or at the student’s home in Ghent, Brussels, and nearby areas.

As a native English speaker and a published author with over five years of teaching experience, I offer structured, supportive lessons tailored to each student’s goals. I hold a Master’s degree from the University of California, Berkeley and bring particular attention to pronunciation, written voice and spoken fluency.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a first lesson.
