Teaching Approach:

I provide you with the best learning experience, all on your terms. I know how busy you are and so my classes are totally flexible (time and days). My lesson plans are tailored around your objectives: key focus areas, time-to-speak and are structured around your specific rate of learning.
I regularly check your progress in order to ensure that you are achieving your maximum potential. Your progress is my priority. I'll review your learning and if necessary create new material. And I'll also offer support material for your continued, fast-paced learning.
I will do all my best to get you to speak with confidance!
Most students are able to speak the basic (not ready-made sentences or just greetings, real language I mean) of the language in 20 hours of classes. The method is not a miracle, it is simple, just plain conversation, straight to the point!
Learning my language just like you learned yours: SPEAKING!
Grammar, intonation, pronunciation, and all the rules that block you from learning are inclusive in the conversation, so you will learn them with no struggle and when you realize, you're speaking!
