If you are a little bit shy in speaking English with other people, if you think that they won't understand you because you make mistakes from time to time, that kind of lesson is made for you ! Abbie is a great teacher : she leads you to speak with other people improving your English and your self-confidence in that language.
I have noticed a big progress that I find useful for my work meetings!

I already feel more confident! I can communicate with other people and understand different cultures. I can share and listen to the points of view. I have learnt a wide range of vocabulary about the topic and the worksheet gave us lots to think about the topic. Thank you Abbie!

Why group classes with English Teacher Abbie?
My students tend to be introverts (like me!) and enjoy talking about real topics and making meaningful connections. We often don’t find it easy to be in large groups or busy spaces. And so I’ve shaped sessions which work just for us…
01.
Topics, along with relevant vocabulary and grammar are shared in advance so no challenging surprises.
02.
My teaching style is all about helping you to feel calm, confident and willing to give things a go.
03.
Feedback at the end of each session, so you can build your skills without highlighting individual mistakes.
04.
Build a community of English speakers around you to practice inside and outside of sessions.
05.
This is a positive space to practice, play with your language and have fun – no judgement or criticism.
A note from me...
I’m truly passionate about the benefits of Confidence in Conversation. To me, a lack of confidence is the biggest hurdle to English speaking. My students all have very good comprehension skills but they tend not to believe it, so they need to practice in a supportive, encouraging space. I’ve worked hard to create these spaces - both in my one-to-one teaching and in my conversation classes - where everyone feels valued, where we learn from our mistakes without judgement, and where we have great fun.

What is the structure of a typical one-on-one class?Each class is structured around your goals, including a mix of speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities. We will focus on practical usage and real-life scenarios to enhance your fluency and confidence.
-
How often can the classes take place?Classes are scheduled based on your and my availability and preferences, typically ranging from once to several times per week.
-
Do I need to purchase any materials for the class?All necessary materials will be provided, though having a notebook and pen for taking notes is recommended. Occasionally, I might suggest additional resources such as books or films.
-
Can I reschedule a class if something comes up?Yes, I offer flexible scheduling. You can reschedule a class with at least 24 hours' notice.
-
How much work will I have to do between the sessions?That’s entirely up to you. While preparation is not mandatory, I recommend completing any homework provided before the next class to allow us to use the class to its full advantage instead of doing exercises from the homework.
-
How do I track my progress?I provide regular feedback, highlighting your strengths and areas for improvement. We will periodically review your goals and adjust the lesson plans accordingly.
