Video Call Platforms

There are many excellent platforms which are perfect for learning English from home or at your workplace at your convenience. Options include Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Skype and Zoom.

Phone Lessons

Phone lessons are ideal for people on the move. All you need is your phone, a quiet space and a good network connection. Phone lessons are suitable for people who already have a good level of English (recommended intermediate or above). It is much more challenging to speak over the phone without any visual help so regular phone lessons will boost your confidence in speaking and comprehension greatly.

Obviously the focus of the phone lessons will be on speaking, however learners will have access to a shared document where both the teacher and learner can write and share texts and images so learners can see any new vocabulary or grammar and corrections during or after the lesson. Following each call the teacher will suggest reading, listening or written work in preparation for the following lesson.
