Are you interested in focusing on improving your spoken English? Have you studied English in the past or want to keep studying English so you can communicate with others? Then our conversational classes or tutoring offerings are for you.

Conversational English

Our Conversational English classes include small groups (12-15) of motivated students from all over the world who want to improve their English. If you enjoy engaging activities, group projects, and games, you will love our courses. Your teacher will give you individualized feedback and provide lots of opportunities to talk and share during each class. Your command of English and your confidence will both grow as you enjoy the lessons on neighborhoods, social media, traveling, culture, and more.

Tutoring

If you have a group of friends or classmates (2-4 students) who all want to work on their conversational English skills, then group conversational English tutoring is for you. These sessions will be designed according to your interests and needs. Your tutor will lead your group through a variety of fun and engaging activities and discussions, as well as give each member of the group individualized feedback and ideas for continued improvement.

Conversational English is all about communication. In both Conversational English classes and tutoring, we will focus on expanding your vocabulary, sharpening your pronunciation, and enhancing your grammar and listening skills so that you can communicate with other English speakers with more clarity and confidence. Your teacher will focus on various topics that will be both helpful and interesting to talk about in English. Your teacher will provide you with ample feedback and suggestions for how you can continue to improve both your fluency and spoken English as well as give you numerous opportunities in each session to speak and share.

English for Academic Purposes is for students who want to study or use English in an academic setting. This class will focus on the skills and language functions you will need to thrive in an academic English setting. You will discuss culture, learn academic skills, and expand your listening, reading, writing, and speaking skills through interactive lectures, discussions, projects, and activities that will prepare you for academic success.

Comprehensive English combines the four core language skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. This course helps you holistically improve your command of English. This class features the National Geographic World Link textbook and will cover topics and culture through interactive media and materials catered to online learning.
