It is time for your own English Convesational Coach

I became a TEFL English Teacher back in 2008. After 12 years of teaching all levels and all sorts of groups, I've become very aware of what works and what doesn't... Trying to learn English grammar rules before being able to understand the language, it will always be hard work for the learner and also very frustrating. No matter what country you are born into, first, you learn how to speak and then you learn the rules. Acquiring additional languages should not be any different.
I am sure you have spent a long time learning English but, how many times have you had the chance to simply see how well you would do through a normal English conversation as you would do with a friend? Not many right?...
My coaching sessions are designed to constantly generate conversation between you and me. We will talk about everything and anything. I will catch those little mistakes you will make here and there. We will fix them on the spot through mental gymnastics, pills of wisdom, reminders, and everything else I have in store for you. You will do most of the talking. Good teachers are the ones that let their students speak, don't forget that.
Your confidence, your fluency, and your accuracy will forcefully improve with time. I will make sure I introduce to you (in due time) verbs, expressions, and vocabulary essential to your everyday English. A Win-Win!
If you are up for the challenge please make sure you have at least a low intermediate level to be able to follow a simple conversation. If your level is lower than that, you will have to be very patient with yourself and conversations could be slower at the beginning.
I am super patient, a great listener, and I have a passion for English. I will be more for you than just an English teacher. I will guide you, encourage you, and basically offer you that "safe pool" where you can polish your speaking skills in a safe, private, cool environment to let yourself speak without worries :)
My accent is a neutral British English accent and I can also help you improve your pronunciation.

Extra information

Estas sesiones de practica y mejora de tu Ingles hablado están pensadas para personas que quieren y necesitan llevar su Ingles al siguiente nivel. Aunque el anuncio dice que las clases son vía webcam (no había otra opción), en nuestras sesiones la cámara web no es necesaria y no haremos uso de ella. De hecho, para facilitar al máximo tu practica diaria de Ingles, también nuestras sesiones podrán ser por teléfono. Bien de camino a casa o al trabajo, en tus ratos de descanso e incluso en los de aburrimiento. Se trata de que puedas simplemente hablar en Ingles siempre que puedas e ir mejorando.
Una de las tareas mas difíciles a la hora de hablar un segundo o tercer idioma es el teléfono. Si eres capaz de desenvolverte en el idioma sin ayuda de la parte visual de tu interlocutor, podrás enfrentarte a cualquier conversación en persona. La practica hace la perfección y "the more you talk, the better you will speak" y eso es innegable...

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hi, I'm Maia. I trained as an English teacher with the best and got my TEFL (Teaching English as a foreign language) certificate in Dublin, May 2008. I became a teacher because I really wanted to help others speak this language and help them speak it. well.
Frustration with the traditional method of language learning (which I personally have also suffered) has been the catalyst for this program. Many of us are tired of having to learn the rules of a language without even knowing how to speak it (I am currently learning French and the same thing happens to me). Understanding a Present Perfect or the Past continuous in English when it is difficult for you to talk about basic things becomes an impossible mission and one is heartless because he thinks it is null for languages. The reality is that when you were little you learned to speak without having to know that it was the Past Perfect. You learned through “trial and error”. Mom or dad or the teacher gently corrected or repeated correctly what was wrong, such as; Mom, I broke the door. While you were learning Spanish, you didn't need explanations about how you spoke or when you did it ... you just spoke it. Stop trying to invent the wheel. It is time to re-learn to speak as it has been done since the beginning of time.
That is what I want to show you in these sessions. You don't need metaphysical explanations to speak English well. Yes, grammar is necessary but it does not have to be a tostón and the vocabulary can be learned in an entertaining and fun way through the real practice of it, as well as the grammar rules.
You need three things to speak English and together we will take care of each one of them but through the real practice of the language where you will be the main protagonist.

Fawzi
Special marriage coaching sessions for couples [ONLINE]
I am Fawzi, marriage coach and I offer marriage coaching sessions to couples who want to understand why they are not doing very well and want to give themselves a new chance to continue together in a joyful life. The objective of the marriage coach is to accompany couples in pain towards a better relationship, so that each of them understands the needs of the other, that each knows how to satisfy his "Love". As a coach, I can help you with several kinds of conflicts: communication problems, boredom, jealousy, routine, infidelity, problems in sexual relationships, children, work, etc. etc. And so that the interviews take place calmly, I use practical sheets which allow me to professionally follow your cases and progress. It must be emphasized that every conflict situation in life has solutions, except that sometimes we fail to be aware and wise to easily solve our problems and overcome them because of our sadness, boredom, nervousness or other states. unwanted. This is why it is better to find a "third party", especially a professional, who remains objective and who has the possibility of hearing us both, of understanding each other and of accompanying us to get out of our suffering and misunderstanding we do not need. -------------------------------------------------- ------- As for my education: The training I followed to become a marriage coach is certifying, accredited by two international accreditation bodies: the Datadock (quality standard number: 0025523) and the IPHM (The International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine, or, in French, International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine). This means that it is assessed and registered internationally. Here are some of the main focuses of this training: - The couple and its mysteries; - The couple and the vagaries of life; - Sexuality (How does it work? / Couple and addictions / Abuses and dangers). If you need my help, I am at your disposal.
