Thank you so much for your interest in the self-study lessons I offer to clients with hectic schedules who find it challenging to attend one-on-one lessons at a fixed time.

This program is designed for those who want to improve their English, expand their vocabulary, and practice their speaking skills at flexible hours—while still benefiting from the guidance of a teacher.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The aim of the program is: 

• to expand your vocabulary on specific topics by exploring them in-depth over several weeks. This is achieved through educational videos you will regularly receive. A new topic is introduced on a regular basis, based on mutual agreement and tailored to the client’s interests and progress in the program

• to improve your speaking skills for real-life situations on the topics we cover in-depth, you will use speaking prompts related to the video content. You’ll answer through voice chat and receive personalized, voice chat-based feedback from me, your teacher.

• to improve your listening skills by communicating with your teacher through voice chat 

• to develop your autonomy and self-reliance as a learner

• to help you connect with others and share your stories and thoughts more effectively

 

What Does This Program Include?

• A series of video or audio lessons on a particular topic

• Speaking prompts (tasks) for each video /audio, related to the topic

• Detailed feedback (as a voice message)

• A list of new words covered in the lesson, along with example sentences to show how these words can be used in context. 

 

Things to know: 

• Depending on the topic, each program will generally consist of about 7 to 10 video or audio lessons (although some topics may be shorter).

• Each video /audio is a maximum of 15 minutes long, so don't expect hour-long videos. 

• Videos are not sent all at once; each video /audio is sent only after the completion of the previous one. After you’ve completed a video/audio lesson (sent me your answers and received my feedback), I’ll send you the next video/audio, and you can repeat the process.

• Once I send a video /audio, the client will be charged for the lesson, whether or not it has been completed (i.e., whether or not the speaking prompts have been submitted via voice chat).

• Once I receive your answers, I’ll send you audio feedback. If any corrections are needed, I’ll include them in my feedback, and you’ll have the opportunity to re-record your answers if necessary.

• Be prepared for any follow-up questions. Remember, the main task is for you to practice speaking—even if it’s just 10 minutes a day.

• If needed, we can occasionally schedule a 30- minute online consultation, where we can discuss the effectiveness of the program, address any questions about what you've learned, and more.

• -If you have any questions, feel free to ask in a voice message (or by email, if you prefer). The key is to use English as much as possible.

​

 

What is expected of you:

-While this program is very flexible, I encourage my students to maintain a consistent schedule, as this allows me to send a new video each week. Consistency is really important.

-Since the main purpose of this program is to improve your speaking skills, I encourage you to commit to the following:

- Be truly willing to improve and work on your speaking skills.

​

This program is for you if: 

 

• You are busy and can’t commit to one-on-one lessons, but want to study at your own pace.

• You want to practice your English more often than just one hour a week. Doing something for 10 minutes a day is more effective than doing something for an hour a week.

• You are not content with knowing only 10-15 words on a particular topic, but are ready to dive deeper into it.

• You are ready to take ownership of your results.

• You are ready to step out of your comfort zone and try something new.
