Inside a lesson

What happens in every session

1

Warm-up

We ease in with a short conversation — catching up, reviewing anything from last time, and setting the focus for today.

2

Core activity

The main part of the lesson. Speaking tasks, listening practice, writing, grammar in context — whatever your goals call for.

3

Error review

I note errors as we go and we address them together — not to interrupt your flow, but to make corrections stick.

4

Wrap-up & homework

A quick summary of what we covered, what went well, and a small task to keep the momentum going between sessions.

Who I teach

Advanced

Refining accuracy, expanding vocabulary, and polishing the professional edge. For learners who want to sound as good as they think.
