    Conversational English Tutoring, for English speakers wishing to improve their confidence

    Hello! My name is William and I am offering 1-1 conversational English language tutoring aimed at people who wish to improve their confidence, pronunciation and expand their vocabulary or phrases in English. We can pick conversational areas that you wish to improve your confidence in; whether it’s discussing current affairs, preparing for an interview, or chatting about the weather. Perhaps you would like to improve your British pronunciation or phrases; we can work to get you speaking “the Queen’s English”!

    I can offer a remote consultation to identify your language goals and for you to get a feeling for whether working with me feels right. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch to talk it through. I am very happy to meet either remotely, wherever you are in the world; or in-person in the A-B zones of Helsinki, if you happen to live there.

    About me: I was born and raised in the UK. I moved to Helsinki two and a half years ago to raise my children in its peaceful surroundings, and pursue a PhD. I love to meet new people from all walks of life and backgrounds.
    Professionally in the UK I was an Assistant Psychologist who worked with children and adults, and also in research. I have an MSc in Psychology and a BA in Philosophy. My passions are for History, Philosophy, Psychology, and current affairs; and of course my two children!

    I look forward to conversing and sharing your English journey with you.

    Anaïs Ould
    English learning or improvement courses
    English, beyond being the international language of business, is the most widely spoken language in the world. It is a language that brings together diverse people, from different backgrounds, cultures, and languages, enabling communication between these different parties—a crucial element in various contexts, whether traveling or at work. Moreover, today, for many recruiters, speaking English is not a bonus but almost a necessity. During the classes I give, I will not only focus on grammatical mastery of the language, but we will also work on the pronunciation and phonetics of this language. I will also suggest that we read aloud together different texts from different sources (novels, newspaper articles, etc.) allowing us to add a cultural and intellectual aspect to our language learning.
