This English language and conversation reinforcement course is designed for people who want to improve their understanding of the English language, focusing primarily on conversation and speaking fluency. Having lived and studied abroad, I managed to acquire an excellent command of the English language as well as a deep understanding of its culture.

The course focuses on listening, comprehension and oral expression. Students will have the opportunity to practice their English through face-to-face conversations, as well as pronunciation, reading and writing exercises. We will discuss during your first lesson to cook up a personalized approach to suit your individual needs while focusing on areas that need improvement.

In addition to this, the course also offers insight into English culture and culture, through videos, films and podcasts, which will help you understand the language better and communicate more effectively in different cultural contexts. The main objective of the course is to allow you to become more comfortable speaking and to better understand the nuances of the English language!

This course is ideal for people who want to improve their English for personal or professional reasons. With this course, I am positive that you will manage to develop your fluency in English and communicate more effectively in professional or social contexts.

- Professional needs

We can work writing and speaking, with a method (Japan Foundation) or any other desired medium.
