What would you like to improve in your English? Whether you want to focus on vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, conversation skills, or all-round fluency, I offer lessons that are fully adapted to your individual goals and needs.

We begin by identifying your current level and what you'd like to achieve. Together, we’ll create a personalized learning plan that reflects your interests, your objectives, and your preferred learning style—whether you learn best through visuals, audio, hands-on activities, reading and writing, or a combination of these.

Each session is conducted entirely in English to help immerse you in the language and build confidence through real conversation. I use a wide variety of interactive exercises, games, role plays, and practical examples to keep the lessons engaging and effective.

After each lesson, you will receive personalized follow-up materials and homework through Google Classroom, so you can keep practicing and progressing between sessions.
