Lessons will begin with an informal introduction, not just for myself but for you as well! From this, we will discuss your personal needs, not just for your English level and the goals you have, but the times and frequency of your lessons.

From there, I will tailor a plan for you and create effective and engaging powerpoints, to help both me and you track our progress through towards our goals. At the end of each lesson, you will be able to keep this powerpoint for your own study.

Every week, we will cover the core basics of the English language, the 5 W's, days of the week and testing our numbers in different situations, practice greeting conversations and begin working towards more random and local English.

For youngsters, I have a whole library of fun and interactive games from my time in China that can effectively test their abilities, with a happy and relaxed atmosphere to ensure both sound education and a genuine desire to learn outside the classroom as well.

For adults, these games can still be fun and effective, but with an emphasis on conversational English, the use of scripted chats and feedback on pronunciation will be a bigger focus. For those in the business world, my studies of Accounting and Finance, as well as my roles in Finance and Sales provide the sound knowledge of necessary English. Not just for conversations, but effective business communications as well as some cultural tips and tricks, to make sure you smash the next meeting you're in.

Likewise, I personally took lessons in Mandarin, and so I understand what I need/want from a tutor. Even for those more comfortable in Arabic, German, Swahili, I can relate to your efforts and am happy to change my plans on the fly to make sure that you are getting the best service you can!

Thanks, Joe
