Starter Kit Session
Who Chooses This: Ideal for beginners to intermediate learners who are yet to gain confidence in free conversation or small talk. It is especially suited for those who want to strengthen their foundational knowledge of the language by working together on practice sections from textbooks.
Description: This lesson format begins with a brief warm-up using everyday conversation, creating a comfortable learning environment. It then transitions to a structured study based on textbook materials. Recommended for students who prefer a systematic approach to language learning, starting with light conversation before diving into more structured educational content.
Chat & Learn Session
Who Chooses This: The most popular choice among students. It is preferred by intermediate to advanced learners who have become comfortable conversing in the language and expressing themselves in their own words.
Description: This lesson format includes a main lesson that is more informal. Topics are often chosen from my podcast episodes for discussion, or students can bring interesting news articles to read and discuss together, or even play language games. If students wish to bring their own articles or games, sharing them via Google Docs or messaging 24 hours before the lesson is highly appreciated. This approach allows for a more dynamic and engaging learning experience, enhancing language skills through practical application.
Freestyle Talk Session
Who Chooses This: Tailored for students who want to focus purely on output, typically those who have already built a comfortable conversational relationship with me or those with a high level of language proficiency.
Description: This session is all about engaging in free-flowing conversation on any topic. While the focus is on conversation, occasional corrections are made for unnatural expressions or incorrect word usage. This format is perfect for those who want to transcend language barriers and share their hobbies and knowledge in the language. It is a great opportunity for mutual learning, as I often learn a lot from the students as well!
