English (ESL) with David M.

Each session will be 50 minutes long The first session is simply an in-depth consultation where we get to know each other and identify what issues you are facing in improving your English. In between the first session and the second, I will put together a plan of how we can work together to get you to your goals. I will then discuss this with you in the second session and we will start. In the 50 minute session, we will break up the time into sections devoted to a different element of improving English language skills: these will be speaking, listening, reading, and writing. By the end of each session, I will note down where you did well and where you need more support. We will have as many sessions as are needed to get to the end of the reading material in question. If I think you will benefit from it, I may ask you to do small assignments outside of sessions that can help you with any reading difficulties that I see are recurring challenges for you. As your grasp on English continues to improve and accelerate, I will introduce more varied exercises to help you grow. For example, we will start to listen to clips of people with different accents so that you can get used to those accents. I will ask you to write more complicated assignments and we will discuss more complicated subjects. And finally, I will give you more varied and complicated reading lists to absorb.
