About me - English
Hi! I'm Posy. I was born in the midlands of England, and I've always had an interest in the way languages work. I'm looking forward to talking to you, and creating lessons that are designed just for you. What topics do you want to talk about in English? What is it about your English that you want to improve? I'm here to help! :)

Teaching Approach
Your Own School
This is your opportunity to practice talking about the topics you want, in English. I will prepare vocabulary lists specific to your interests, so we can discuss the language of your topic specially (Language Focus), and the general topic freely (Conversation Practice). In every lesson, I provide the amount of grammar and pronunciation feedback you want, which we practice together. Relaxed communication and practice sessions are the keys to your progress!
Needs Analysis
Our 1-on-1 lessons are a great opportunity to analyse your needs and build your ideal online school. I'd like to know what you're interested in, what you find easy in English, and what you find difficult. It's all about you. For example: do you need English for academic or work purposes? Do you want to travel the world and use English? Are you interested in my culture? Whether it's about good grammar or fun conversations, I can help you reach your English aspirations.
Homework
If you want homework, you will get it! Just like your lessons, homework will be specific to your language needs. If you want extra help with writing, reading, listening, pronunciation, grammar – I will give you a new challenge to do in your free time, and you will get boosted feedback in our next lesson!
