Gain confidence and learn at your own pace
Online Lessons via Zoom
An online lesson allows to practise English for 1 hour. By the end, you have gained new knowledge and fluency or accuracy. It increases confidence in speaking English and you feel rewarded by your efforts when you start using what you have learnt at work or in class. It also helps improve your pronunciation in English.
Whether you need to make progress, practise for an exam, a job interview or a presentation, it is easy to get in touch with me as your online English tutor. You may require guidance with your homework or wish to get to know the teacher you will be staying with in the summer, this is a simple way to start making real progress in English at your own pace. Whether at work, on the go or in your own home, you can be taught using my Online Lesson service one-on-one delivered via Zoom.
An online course is also an opportunity to continue your development after you have returned home should you have come to stay with us in Oxford.
Select one online tuition when required or purchase a package of 4, 8, or 12 hours. Book your trial lesson so that we can discuss your needs and objectives as well as assess your level.
Private Lessons
The lessons are customised depending on your level of English and your learning style. They are assessed during your trial lesson. I also take into account your interests and objectives. This is the reason why you are asked to fill in a needs analysis form. It is an in-depth questionnaire.
For young learners, I integrate games, videos and we also read books. The lessons are fun and adapted to the age of the student so that he/she can gain confidence in speaking English.
The course includes live lessons, a questionnaire to determine your needs, requirements and objectives, assessment of your level, a course outline, regular feedback, materials, progress reports and a certificate.
Content
The tuition always comprises of discussions which allow you to practise speaking. Depending on your needs analysis, they will be a mix of listening, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and writing exercises.
They are student-centred classes as opposed to teacher-centred. I am facilitating your learning by giving you tasks to practise your skills in English. I am eliciting rather than giving you the answers. This is very effective for you to make significant progress.
Materials
I use published materials from books, the British Council or Onestop English. I also select authentic articles from magazines such as The economist or websites and YouTube. You can also bring your own materials such as emails, presentations or homework. The tasks are varied and challenging but adapted to your level of English. You can also expect plenty of games with one goal in mind to give you as much speaking opportunities as possible. For children, I use games, stories, songs, videos. We have fun.
Using Zoom
Zoom is free and easy to use. You do not need to register for an account. I will schedule our virtual class in the Zoom application for our desired date/time and send you a link via email. On the day of the lesson, you will simply need to click on the link to access the class. I will take you through the functionalities of Zoom so we can screen share, chat, utilize the whiteboard or annotate a shared document.
For your lesson, you require a functioning computer, phone or tablet with a microphone, webcam and a good internet connection equipped with an ethernet cable if your connection is low. You may also consider using a headset.
