To communicate authentically with people from other countries, it's essential to go beyond grammar and learn to speak the language naturally.

Even though my teaching method is guided by textbooks, I'm not a rigid teacher who teaches the kind of boring grammar you learned in school. I talk to my students in a friendly way and adapt the content to what you really need and want.

Initially, I will observe your progress calmly to learn what your strengths and weaknesses are. After that, we will advance at your pace, with homework that doesn't overwhelm you.

Yes, I use the language we have in common to help me explain more difficult topics. But don't think of this as something that will delay your learning, because we'll have conversation time from the very first lesson! So you can bring up topics for chitchat whenever you want. I myself like to talk about: history, shows, movies, music, books, and things that happen in everyday life.
