How to Choose the Right Course ?

Learn English Your Way — Simple, Effective Coaching Tailored to You

Whether you’re moving abroad, working with international clients, or finally ready to feel confident speaking English, your learning journey should feel motivating — not intimidating. My coaching is designed to help you build real-world confidence, fluency, and cultural awareness at your own pace and in your own style.

Through personalized, practical, and human-centered coaching, I’ll help you go beyond grammar rules and textbooks. You’ll learn to express yourself naturally, connect across cultures, and feel at ease in the situations that matter most to you.

I offer three coaching formats to match different goals and lifestyles. Each format can be tailored to your preferred coaching style:

Practical English Toolkit

For Beginners

Practical English Toolkit is designed for beginners who need essential English skills for travel and work. Whether you're visiting an English-speaking country or starting a job, this course will help you navigate everyday situations with confidence.

You’ll learn practical vocabulary, basic grammar, and essential phrases for common interactions—ordering food, asking for directions, handling work-related conversations, and more. We cover the basics of grammar but place a strong emphasis on speaking and conversation. Using a variety of materials, we make each session fun, engaging, and interactive, so you can start using English right away!

Active English Fluency

For Intermediate Speakers 

English in Action: From Basics to Confidence is designed for intermediate speakers who want to improve their fluency and feel more at ease in real-world conversations. If you already know the basics but struggle to express yourself naturally, this course will help you gain confidence and speak with ease.

We focus on practical communication skills for everyday life and work, helping you expand your vocabulary, refine your grammar, and improve your pronunciation. Through interactive exercises, role-plays, and engaging discussions, you'll develop the ability to hold conversations, express opinions, and handle social and professional interactions with confidence.

English My Way

For All Levels

English My Way is a flexible course tailored to your specific needs and goals. You can choose how many hours you want to dedicate and the skills you wish to focus on, whether it’s preparing for a job interview, delivering an important presentation, or studying for a particular exam (like TOEIC or TOEFL).

With personalized sessions designed just for you, you’ll gain the confidence and preparation you need to succeed in your English endeavors. Together, we’ll create a program that fits your schedule and helps you achieve your objectives effectively!
