Quick English Speaking, Reading & Confidence Building

From 53.65 C$ /h

Hi, I specialized in English teaching for more than 10 years & have been training many internationals in my 7 full years of being in educational institutes & NGOs. I had the priviledge to teach English in Bangkok, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Portugal and Poland

I have run more than 70 education workshops/training. I have both TESOL & TEFL teaching certificate.

My lessons starts with a casual conversation to get a feeling of my students level. It will then be a series of topic of conversations that I will go through. My aim is to make my students as casual and normal as I can so it's a natural conversation no matter what level my students at. This is to build their comfortability to make mistakes and be OK with it, so they can learn faster.

Grammar and vocabulary will come during and after I sense a confidence in my students.
My techniques are adopted from years of working in international education organisations with underprivileged and illiterate groups to fast track their ability to master and converse in English.

So let me know if you would like to learn with me, you can even give it a try with half the price for the first class :)

I specialize in teaching children and adults. I make learning creative and fun and completely tailor made to each student's learning style and strengths. I place a strong emphasis on intuitive learning through speaking and reading and I let the grammar and vocabulary knowledge build naturally. I do follow textbooks when required but I also lesson plan around it, using the student's interests to make the class interesting.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello, I am here to offer tutoring or English lessons for all levels. I am American and grew up bilingual in Dortmund, Germany. So, my native languages are English and High German.
I have many years of experience as an English tutor, having tutored English throughout high school and college. . I also received a TEFL "Teaching English as a foreign language" certificate in a seminar.
Through my various professional experiences as an experiential educator, workshop leader, language teacher and tutor, I can respond well to a variety of needs and have had a lot of experience with different students and groups in these areas. I have worked a lot with adolescent students from regular schools and young adult students. However, I also have experience with mentally or physically impaired students, groups of migrants and behaviorally challenged youth and am not afraid of difficult tasks as well as new challenges. I have aroused your interest ? Please contact me immediately to get to know me better and to arrange a first lesson. I also offer High German as a foreign language.
With kind regards
John

Need help with the IELTS speaking test?

I can offer one-on-one tutoring to help you learn more about the speaking part of IELTS and help you achieve the band score you need. I can help you identify areas to improve, like:
- how many and what kind of grammar mistakes you're making when speaking
- how to improve your pronunciation to be more accurate in clear
- how to hold a conversation and meet the examiner's expectations
- how to expand your vocabulary to be more appropriate for the test

I am a native English speaker and have years of experience as a university academic English lecturer (including IELTS workshops). I know university's expectations for students' speaking abilities and how the IELTS tests this.

Together we can cover the structure of the test and practice so that you gain some experience before the actual test date. I can offer you guidance for areas you need to work on and set your expectations for the test date. Just a few sessions together online can help get you on the right track to achieve the IELTS speaking band score you need!

I'm available online or on a limited basis in Zurich city. Happy to meet with more than one student at a time if desired or one-on-one. Flexible times -- please feel free to ask.
