Knowledge of the English language is an indispensable tool in this day and age. However, while the basics are relatively easy to master, learning the nuances can really up your game in conversations (whether everyday or professional) and in the case of tests and exams, it is crucial to get familiar with the format of the questions.

I have a degree in literature from the University of Cambridge, have a C2 certificate (i.e. near-native proficiency), lived in the UK for three years, plus have years of teaching and proofreading experience. Thus, no matter your level, I can help you reach your language goals!

If you're already comfortable with the basics of English and want to take your skills to the next level, my lessons are perfect for you! I focus on conversation practice and expanding vocabulary, helping you gain confidence in real-world situations. Instead of diving into grammar drills, we’ll work on fluency, pronunciation, and natural expression through interactive discussions on a variety of topics that interest you. These sessions are ideal for intermediate to advanced learners who want to refine their speaking abilities and feel more confident when using English in different social settings.
