ABOUT THE COURSE:

You and I talk together… a lot!

You do most of the talking, while I listen and help you (with grammar and vocabulary as it arises).

It’s really what a person wants when learning and practicing a foreign language. That’s what I did to learn foreign languages, and it works great!

TEACHING MATERIALS:
We’ll use online materials, such as videos and photos, or even short reading and listening texts that we’ll discuss together in a friendly conversation. I also have a nice collection of online sources for English grammar and vocabulary exercises, and we can use those to help you enrich your language skills.

If you want to work with a book, though, I can suggest a carefully selected one that will be just right for our classes together, and you can buy that on your own online.

TOPICS:
Everything is selected and targeted to your skill level and subject interest: if you want to study Business English, the materials will be business oriented; if you’re more interested in traveling, that will be our focus, etc.

STYLE:
As we talk, I’ll notice where you need added help, and I’ll present a grammar or vocabulary exercise to work on together. Then, you’ll be able to integrate what you learned into our next conversations, and you’ll get better and better with every day!

We’ll take your English practice as far as you want to go with it: either just as conversation, or by discussing and analyzing academic texts together. It’s up to you, but I can organize everything to help you reach your goals.

TEST PREPARATION:
Even the test preparation classes (TOEFL, TOEIC and IELTS) are conversation based. Together, we’ll practice and prepare you for all sections of the test, and we’ll address all the different types of questions that you’ll have to handle on exam day, but we’ll do it while talking together about what we read, write, say and hear.

Let's get started!

Alondra González
Advanced English / Certificate of English (TOEFL) / English Literature
Currently, mastering the English language is an essential tool for professionals in any area, as it broadens the panorama of job opportunities both nationally and internationally. Additionally, the certification of our level of English is important to guarantee our abilities. Our English classes can have two types of objectives. The first is the development of the four linguistic skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing; while the second is the teaching of advanced English (level C1) focused on the presentation of an exam that will guarantee your level of English, for example, the TOEFL, the CAE or others. Finally, in this class you will gain a new kind of appreciation for the English language, as I will help you connect with it according to your own interests and passions. I promise that you will stop seeing learning English as an obligation and it will become a pleasure and an enjoyable skill *swear emoji*.

Narindra
English language courses (beginner to intermediate level)
Beginning of the course: The first hour is above all an hour of discovery of the student, knowing his level, his ambitions, his rhythm. From there we can establish a work plan. The courses are not necessarily done by theory (grammar, phonetics), but more often on oral practice (exercise of pronunciation, free discussions, varied and/or specific for the most advanced). All animated by playful games of general culture or the language itself. For those wishing to focus more on grammar or writing. We can opt for the translation of an extract from a book or standard sentences. Don't hesitate to want to talk about a subject you are passionate about, it always makes learning much better :)
