Teaching style
Getting to know the student, their interests, skills, strengths and language purpose is the most important part of preparing my lessons. With that information I can adapt the lessons to their style and interests. The most important part of learning a language is to have fun and feel the liberty to make mistakes and learn from them, while being challenged to improve. Depending on the students goals, we can prepare for exams (TOEFL/ TOEIC/ IELTS/ FCE/ CAE/ immigration/inburgerings exam), discuss articles and videos, look into grammar, all so the student improves their fluency/conversation, vocabulary and overall language skills. Cancellation policies: <24 hours 100%
