Conversational English classes online

Hello, my name is Nicoletta and I come from the small island of Cyprus. However, both my parents have British roots and I have grown up speaking English as my primary language.

As a person who has always been interested in other countries and cultures, I have embarked on learning new languages myself in the last few years. Most recently Korean! Doing this, I realised how important it is to have someone guide you and support you on your language learning journey. I hope to be that person for you, to aid you and support you with your experience of the English language.

I have had various experiences working with children and individuals both in schools and informal settings. I homeschooled my brother who has special needs in Science, English, and Maths. In addition, during my university years, I led year 1 undergraduate students (both native English and international students) in various projects with the English language being key in the design and delivery of these presentations. I have also volunteered at a school, with my task being to provide individualised support to students in a variety of subjects. All of these experiences have equipped me with the skills and knowledge to now lead my own classes. In the past year, I have been working towards my TEFL qualifications, completing the general course, an advanced course in preparing students to take English language exams, and a Business English course.

I believe in tailoring each lesson to meet the students needs. I believe that the student is the most important person in any lesson and that the teacher should focus their material on the students’ goals, interests, and aspirations.

The classes I offer are as follows:

• Classes for children
• Classes for Business English students
• General English classes
• TOEFL and IELTS preparation

Hi! I’m Sue and I live in beautiful South Africa.

I’m a TEFL certified English teacher and I specialize in business English, conversational fluency, and pronunciation. I also have about 35 years’ experience in the business sector, including 25 years in education.

Do you lack confidence when you have to speak English? Do you wish you sounded more fluent? Do you have to keep repeating yourself because people can’t understand you? Frustrating, isn’t it?!

I want to help you achieve your English-speaking goals and to feel natural when you speak English. As you become more fluent, you will feel more confident. I want you to feel just like a native English speaker. That’s my goal for you!

I’ve taught hundreds of students – just like you – from beginners to advanced.

I’m a fun and patient teacher and my classroom is a relaxed, safe space where it’s okay to make lots of mistakes, because that's how you learn.

My passion is helping people who struggle with pronunciation – those tricky English sounds that are so difficult to say. Every language has unique challenges and I really believe my techniques can help you. Let me work with you to transform your English!

Learning happens in a fun and positive environment and when we experience language in different ways. I use a variety of learning methods: videos, podcasts, interesting texts, role-plays, real-life conversations and simulations. There’ll be lots of opportunities to practice – to build your speaking skills and your confidence. I’ll teach you tips and techniques that you can use, and I’ll give you practical tools to help you improve your English fluency.

Our trial lesson will be mostly conversational, where we’ll talk about your English goals and what you want to achieve. Then, I’ll create a tailored learning plan. We’ll focus on YOUR unique learning needs and I’ll work with you to help you achieve your goals.

If you'd like only conversational classes, we can do that too!

I believe in patient correction and constructive feedback – so that you know what you’re doing well, and areas you should work on. 

In my spare time, I love learning Italian (Yes, I’m a student too!!), so I understand the challenges and frustrations that come with learning a language.

I’m excited to go on this journey with you. Let me help you speak naturally, sound professional, and feel confident.

Book a trial session with me and let’s get started!

Hi, I’m Liz. I’m a native English speaker and I have spent most of my life living and working in London, England.

I have a CELTA qualification for teaching English as a foreign language, and I also have a BA in English Literature from a central London university.

My teaching experience has been predominately online in 1-2-1 lessons, but I also have experience teaching in person to groups of children at language camp in the UK.

I plan bespoke lessons specifically to meet your needs. During the trial, or initial lesson I will spend time getting to know you and thinking about how I can best help you to meet your goals. This may be by working together on a structured curriculum, or perhaps you need to focus on your speaking skills so you can improve your confidence.

I use a variety of materials, including course books, online exercises and news articles.

I have also helped some of my students to prepare for their English Literature exams, here in the UK, or internationally. I particularly enjoy these lessons as I am passionate about literature.

I would love to help you on your language journey so I hope to meet you soon.

Are you looking to improve your English language skills and sound more like a native speaker? Look no further! As a professional English Language Teacher from the UK with both CELTA and TEFL certification, I've been teaching English online full-time since 2016 and have helped countless students achieve their language goals.

My lessons are not just informative but also engaging and interactive, providing you with the personalised attention you need to succeed. I understand that each student is unique, so I tailor each lesson to your needs, learning style and final goal, ensuring you get the most out of every session.

When you take professional lessons with me, you're guaranteed to receive authentic and customised materials that will make your lessons fun and engaging. You'll receive feedback after every lesson, giving you insights into areas you need to work on and hints and tips on how to study for international exams like the IELTS.

Whether you need to work on your speaking, listening, reading or writing skills, I'm here to help. We can discuss a range of topics or review structures you struggle with. Each lesson is designed to improve the skills you need to develop and improve your English overall.

To make your lessons even more engaging, we'll use an interactive document that converts into a feedback form, allowing you to download, print and study it at your convenience. We'll review some aspects from it at the beginning of the following class.

Take the first step towards English language success and book a lesson with me today. Please note that my lessons are aimed at adults aged 18+ and unfortunately, I am unable to offer lessons to children.

I'm Ryan, I am a Canadian Certified English TESOL instructor.  I am a Native English speaker, currently living in Mexico.  I have taught all ages and abilities.  In the past I have taught at an English school but now I am mostly teaching online, which I enjoy al lot!  I love teaching English to beginners, intermediates and I also really look forward to helping advanced leaners prep for IELTS, CELPIP or even preparing you for your next job interview.  

In my classes we will work on conversation skills, grammar, phrasal verbs, idioms, and new vocabulary, also we can review any current English school work you have.   I know that I was talking a little fast in my video, but I promise to slow down in our class as my students ability dictates.  

Everyone learns in different ways, I'll quickly find out what's the best way to teach to you and we'll have fun doing it.  Whether you are a beginner or need some help with your conversation skills I will be happy to assist you!

Hello! My name is Tim, I’m from England, and I’m a professional English teacher. I trained at International House in London where I gained the Cambridge CELTA qualification, and I’ve worked with students of all levels and of many different nationalities. I’m also a Spanish student (B2-C1 level) so I know how difficult it can be to learn a foreign language!

I use the ‘communicative approach’ to English teaching, which means that you will have lots of opportunities to practise your speaking skills in a relaxed environment and receive helpful feedback. During a lesson, you have many options; for example, you can follow a structured course (like in a language school), you can develop your speaking skills by having conversation classes (if your level is B1+) or I can help you to prepare for an exam such as IELTS. Depending on your goals, I will adapt to you because you are always the protagonist! What’s more, I know how important it is to learn grammar and vocabulary that you can use in the real world, and I also enjoy helping students to improve their pronunciation by exploring how the different sounds in English are produced. I use a variety of interesting materials (such as articles, audios, modern textbooks, and videos) and we can talk about any topic that is of interest to you.

If you want to book a trial lesson, we can start by getting to know each other, I can assess your current level, and then we can create a plan to ensure that you achieve your learning goals. I hope to meet you very soon!

Hi, everyone! I'm Marissa. I've been teaching English my entire professional life, since obtaining my certification (CELTA) in 2011. I'm a native speaker of English from the U.S. who has taught both online and at schools/companies around the world.

In our lessons, I will provide you with materials to match your level and goals. We can follow a structured curriculum, focus on a particular topic or skill, discuss an article, or practice for an upcoming presentation/interview-- it's up to you. I take a communicative approach and prioritize your speaking time while correcting your mistakes and offering useful grammar structures and vocabulary.

Hi there! I'm teacher Dio and I have been a teacher for over a decade. I love what I do - I am passionate about languages. I speak 3 languages (Portuguese, Spanish and of course, English). I've lived in Germany, Ireland, and I just recently moved to Spain. I am telling you this because that means I KNOW how learning a language works.  

Something that is important to know is that you DON'T need to live in an English-speaking country to learn English effectively. Everything really is all about you taking some minutes of your day to study and to surround yourself with the language! I am a certified teacher and my experience over the years shows that you don't need to be brilliant, you just need to be committed in order to learn another language.

Some other info about me:

I am certified by the Cambridge University (CELTA), and I also hold a TEFL Certificate. I have been teaching English for over 10 years, and I have helped students from all around the world. Currently I offer two main courses:

- CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH - This course focuses on fluency, pronunciation, learning a lot of new vocabulary and preparing presentations about different topics! - There are lots of different topics and you can choose from!

- IELTS & FCE/CAE EXAM PREPARATION - I have a 25-lesson course that will teach you EVERYTHING you need to know to pass the IELTS/CAE exams with flying colors! - In addition to that, I have a lot of extra materials you can use to improve your grammar and writing skills!  

If your English level isn't very high, we can also discuss a course that will be aimed to give you a solid base so that you feel confident to express yourself in English.

Thank you so much for reading through this page and I look forward to meeting you!

About me:

I’m Diana, a friendly and patient English teacher from the beautiful city of Cape Town currently living in Portugal. In 2017, I completed my TESOL and TEYLT trainings and since then I have worked with students from all around the world both in language schools and online. I have lived and taught English in 5 different countries (Spain, Portugal, Indonesia, Turkey and South Africa) to students of all levels (beginners to advanced). In 2021, I became certified to teach Ielts and have thus helped numerous students with  their exam preparations too.

I'm passionate about learning and teaching languages and have studied Portuguese, Spanish, German and Turkish. Through my own language studies, I have learnt that an active conversational approach is the best way to master a language! Some of my other passions include yoga, travel, food and art!:)

My lessons:

My approach to teaching depends a lot on the level and goals of the student. Each student is unique with different necessities so I don’t have a one size fits all proposition. Lessons are tailored to you and are adapted as you progress.Expect to receive a lot of feedback, corrections and if you would like, homework activities.

In our first class, we will have an introductory lesson where I do a speaking evaluation, we get to know each other and we discuss a future learning strategy. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to send me a message :)

I hope to see you soon!

My name is Mark, I'm TEFL- certified and I specialize in creating a comfortable and fun English learning environment.

I have been helping adults ( ages 18 +)  online for over 10 years, during which time, I have also studied multiple languages.

I understand the difficulties of learning a new language and attempt to address these issues directly in my sessions. 

I believe that learning is a by-product of good teaching.

I understand that teaching is not 1 method for all situations, and requires adjusting and variety throughout the process.

I want to offer fun and excitement to the learning environment and process.  Helping you become a confident and fluid speaker, requires consistency of instruction along with diligence in practice. Together we can create an amazing learning environment that will allow you to achieve your learning goals.

I can assist you with TOEFL, IELTS, CELPIP, LSAT, SAT, PTE, and other EXAM preps. I'm able to help you simply focus on conversational English, expressing yourself in everyday situations. The formal language of business English can be difficult terrain to traverse, but I can guide you through the process. Many students have just wanted to improve grammar and vocabulary, session work along with between session work (homework). We can tackle consistency and fluency.

Feel free to have a trial lesson to see how I can help you be the English speaker you want to become,

Hey! 

Thank you for checking out my profile. :) 
My name is Edit and I am living in Japan. I attended an English-Hungarian Bilingual Secondary Grammar School, where I developed my love for the English language. I have always been interested in Eastern languages and cultures as well, so I decided to specialize in Japanese language and culture at university. After graduating, I moved to Japan, where I have been working as an English teacher for more than 2 years now. I have an IELTS certificate and I also completed a TEFL teaching course. 

I focus on creating a relaxed, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere during my lessons. I encourage my students to make mistakes because that's the only way to master a language. I always personalize the lesson material and adjust it to the student's personal goal and level. I love teaching this beautiful language, and my goal is to motivate my students to reach their language goals. 😊

みなさん。こんにちは 😊 
私はハンガリー出身のEdit（エディット）です。 日本で英語の教師を始めて、約二年以上になります。そこで、今回は『楽しく』をモットーに、 英会話のオンラインレッスンを開講する事になりました。 『いつかは海外に行ってみたい』 『英語で海外のお友達を作ってみたい』 『英語のテスト勉強を手伝って欲しい』 と思っている方のご連絡お待ちしています。🙏 楽しく英語を学びたいという方は一時間の無料体験レッスンをご用意していますので、ご興味ある方はご連絡ください。

Hi there, 

My name is Vicki and I am a CELTA-qualified English teacher for speakers of other languages. CELTA is the teaching certificate issued by Cambridge University. I have taught all levels of English and all ages. I currently teach 100 percent online and I highly enjoy getting to know people from all over the world. I am also a cross-cultural communication specialist. As a result, I can help you improve your English skills and guide you in how to communicate in culturally appropriate ways. I also have an academic background (a Ph.D. in Social and Political Thought and a Bachelor of Arts with First Class Honours in Art History and Political Studies). My time at university developed my understanding and use of the English language to an advanced level.  

I am a New Zealander living in Germany, and as a language learner myself (German), I know how important it is to enjoy the learning process and to feel safe to make mistakes. I am a very friendly and encouraging teacher and I strive to adapt my lessons to my students' specific needs, wants, and interests. Students that take lessons with me also gain access to the Expemo App at no extra charge, enabling them to easily practice the new vocabulary after class as well. In my lessons, I use audio clips, videos, and readings. I also use authentic materials, such as news articles. 

Areas that I specialize in are:

Academic English: i.e. learning appropriate vocabulary, practicing writing academic essays, and undertaking reading comprehension tasks.  

Business English: i.e. preparing a presentation and writing an effective email. 

Conversational English; many students have a strong understanding of English grammar and vocabulary, but struggle to hold everyday conversations with native speakers. Conversational classes focus on improving students' abilities to speak more naturally and spontaneously about a range of topics.   

In addition to language lessons, I can also help with editing texts such as scripts and emails.

Please note, that while I can understand a lot of German my spoken level is B1 and my lessons are normally held completely in English. 

Hopefully I will speak to you soon,

Vicki

I've been working as an English teacher for more than 6 years, and I'm passionate about language learning and teaching.

This experience has allowed me to learn about different cultures, helping me to become a more considerate and open-minded person. Personally, I believe that this is one of the greatest strengths that a teacher of English as a foreign language can have.
