Business English Language Fluency via Conversation and Writing.

Àpd 36.48 $ /h

Do you hate making English mistakes at work? Do you want to ask questions but don't know how? Are telephone calls awful? Do you need to negotiate, talk to a boss, make small talk, attend a conference, write emails, etc.? Does using English at work make you nervous?

If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, you are not alone! Most English language learners are scared to make mistakes in front of people, especially at work.

In my Business English class, I prepare students to speak in a variety of business situations. You will learn the vocabulary, useful phrases, and communication skills necessary for working in English.

In each class, we 1) Learn vocabulary, grammar, and useful information, 2) Complete activities to practice using what we learned, and 3) Have a conversation or role-play activity to use what you learned in a natural way.

Présentation

I’m from the United States and have lived in the Netherlands for 3 years. I earned a Bachelors of Arts in English and History from UNC Chapel Hill, which is ranked as one of the best public universities in the US. I then earned a Masters of Teaching from UNC in 2010. After graduating, I worked at a non profit organization and then began teaching English after earning my TEFL certification.

Since 2015, I’ve taught over 4,000 private lessons to students from all over the world. I take pride in my skills as a supportive, responsive, and empathetic teacher. I offer customized lessons for each student and strive to focus on topics they are interested in. My specialties are General English, Test Preparation, Business English, and writing/proofreading.

I also worked as a writing coach and proofreader for two British universities, where I guided students on how to improve their writing, use critical analysis, and coached skills like grammar, punctuation, and writing flow to help them succeed in their studies. I've also proofread work for American and other European universities, such as dissertations, university applications, and other projects.

When I’m not working, I enjoy traveling, rock climbing, and laughing at memes. I look forward to helping you with your English.

Speaking English is difficult and uncomfortable at times! However, it is necessary for many people. My General English classes focus on vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation (accent reduction), and increasing confidence. General English is for people who want to improve all of their English skills. Classes are structured and involve a lot of speaking practice. We use Google Docs, textbooks, articles, and videos during class. I can provide homework if desired.

IELTS, TOEFL, School English Test Preparation Course

Do you need help preparing for IELTS, TOEFL, or your school English exams? In this Test Prep class we use real, former test questions to build confidence with answering difficult questions in an exam setting.

We primarily work on speaking and writing skills, such as vocabulary building and grammar. For speaking, we focus on fluency and confidence building. Writing practice is typically assigned as homework and is checked during class. We will look at essay structure, transitioning, paragraphs, and vocabulary.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.
