In my speaking classes I use fun activities, including discussion questions, role plays, and talking about your own experiences to help you speak as much as possible.

Each 1-to-1 or small group class covers one of more than 50 common topics, all very useful, whether you just want to be able to chat fluently and improve your pronunciation, or get a good score in exams, such as IELTS or GCSE.

The topics include describing people's character, places, clothes, films, sport, family, food, the environment, history, transport and many more.

If you wish, before each lesson I will give you an online quiz to help you learn useful vocabulary for that topic and then you will practise using it during the class.

The lessons can also include grammar focus sections to help you reduce errors and use more complex structures. These exercises can also be done as homework, if you prefer so that in class you can speak more. I will adapt to your preferences.

My lessons will help you speak fluently for conversation or English exams.
