Skype lessons

A small addition to the private lessons offered! I have been asked by a number of students who have much motivation but little time, whether I could offer private lessons over Skype.

I am happy to say I am now offering online lessons (primarily conversation lessons) to those who are interested. Each 60 minute online class is 25 euros in cost. For more details or for any questions and concerns, please feel free to contact me. Thank you.

TOEFL, IELTS, PREPARATION!!

Hello everyone!

I have recently had quite a few requests to offer test preparation courses and have decided to do exactly that! Perhaps you are hoping to study abroad or need to have one of the above tests for your next career step. We all know that these tests are quite demanding and often very frustrating! It can indeed be quite intimidating at times- and we teachers most definitely know and understand that! My goal is to help you be as prepared as possible for your exam- to build your confidence as well as build the necessary skills needed to pass the exam. Please feel free to give me a call or send me an e-mail with any of your questions and concerns. I would be more than happy to help!

Preparing Yourself...What to Expect

In our private lessons we of course focus on a wide range of aspects concerning the English language. Not only do we work together to improve and perfect your grammar skills, but we also intensively train your conversation skills and take a close look at the world of pronunciation as well as enunciation. I will also incorporate a wealth of material during our lessons that will be aimed at keeping you motivated and excited about the learning process while at the same time solidifying your knowledge of the language. Most importantly we will sit together and discuss your needs and goals, and once we have a clear idea of what these are and how we will achieve them, we will be ready to start!
