English Language for Beginners or Intermediate Level - English Conversation Practice

35.23 $ /h

I am a native Russian speaker who have been living in London for almost ten years. Completed BA and MA degrees in University of Westminster. Passionate about people's development, and therefore will be happy to help people to learn English language.

The fear of failure, being misunderstood and grammar mistakes are the three most common reasons why people are afraid to speak English. Together we can work through this and I promise it is easier than it seems :) When I came to London I had a vocabulary, but was very shy to speak, as I though that people will laugh or misunderstand me. It took a while, but I decided to open up and talk the way I could. Surprise - everyone understood me without any problem.

Here I am today to offer my help and support to you. We will have great conversations on different topics. Sometimes all you need is just 30-45 mins a day to talk things through and to keep up to date with your English.

This class will suit for beginners and people with intermediate knowledge of English. We will focus on the areas that you would like to improve whether it is speaking, writing or listening. I have also experience in IELTS tests, as I had to do it myself some time ago, therefore, I will be happy to support you with this too.

Kids don't need lectures about "good money habits." They need to feel what money does.
While adults debate finances at home, kids are already using money, without actually understanding how.

In this course, we learn by playing. And by thinking.
We'll explore together:
✓ Simulate a real shop: handle actual money, practice spending and saving, discover what it feels like
✓ Create a personal budget: not boring spreadsheets, but visuals, games, and real challenges
✓ Ask the real questions: Need vs. want. Why save? How do people earn? What's debt?
✓ Discover how systems work: Banks, loans, digital money, and financial security
✓ Think like an entrepreneur: What services can I offer? How do I create value? How do I turn an idea into money?

Why this is different:
Most kids think "money is complicated." This class shows them that money is a tool, not a mystery, not something to fear.
And, more importantly: that they can control it.

What they take home:
A personal budgeting system they actually understand. Answers to questions they've been asking. And the mindset: money is a means, not an end.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60-min sessions | Small group or one-on-one

For curious kids who ask questions about money.

Do you need to improve your English so that you can participate fluently and confidently in business meetings, presentations, webinars, telephone conversations or interviews? You may be aiming for a job in the EU institutions or other organisations in Brussels. Or you could be working in an international company or studying for a Masters or another qualification...

I have been a qualified, professional English teacher and translator for more than 20 years. My courses enable learners to actively produce the language, repeat useful expressions until they are habitual and correct mistakes until they are removed. Although I am happy to explain and practice grammatical issues, the focus is on effective, correct and appropriate communication by using visual material, videos, interesting topics for discussion and challenging quizzes. As I have advanced knowledge of French, German and Czech, I can particularly appreciate and correct the issues speakers of these languages have in English, but this is also the case for Dutch speakers.

There is also the possibility of specialist English courses in the areas linked to my experience (see below): how the EU works; environmental, energy, regional or agricultural policies; economics.

- Advisor in EU policies and funding for 12 years (regional policy, economic development)
- Director of a regional representation to the EU and member of a management team
- Certificate in TESOL with business
- BA(Honours) in Modern Languages & Modern History, Oxford University
- Post-graduate in Economics, London University

Learn to Perfect Your American English Accent and Communication Skills—for Work, Academics, and Everyday Life
Great for Study Abroad and International Students!

“Where are you from? ...No, but where are you actually from?”

I was born and have lived in the United States my entire life (28 years). I lived in the rural Midwestern state of Wisconsin until age 13. Then I lived, attended middle school, graduated high school, and attended university in the major U.S. cities of Chicago, Illinois, and San Francisco, California.

I come from a bilingual home, and my parents speak with an accent—but my American English accent is clear, standard, and natural.

I’m happy to work with you to help you sound more American. This can be extremely useful for English learners who want to communicate more confidently and comfortably in school, at work, and in daily life.

We will cover:
• Accent and pronunciation
• Pacing and rhythm
• Vocabulary and word choice
• Delivery and confidence

All techniques are based on evidence from linguistics and communication studies, so you’ll understand why they work—not just memorize rules. Accent and communication improvement is a science and an art.

I have worked in journalism, speech-language pathology, tourism, and customer service. I have experience in high-academic settings (like museums and graduate seminars) and everyday settings (like working in stores). I am currently working toward a Level 5 TEFL diploma.

I have one semester left in my degree in Spanish and Chinese at San Francisco State University, and I plan to move abroad for graduate school. I have also taken graduate-level classes in Chinese and Spanish. I speak eight languages fluently, and I understand what it takes to make a foreign-language accent sound natural and confident.
I’m warm, friendly, patient, professional, open-minded, and flexible. Every student has a unique journey in language learning, and I will meet you where you are to meet your goals.

Feel free to message me with any questions!
