Prepare to Speak!

Do you wish learning English was more like real life?

“Prepare to Speak” is a 6-week English speaking programme designed to help you develop vocabulary, understand real conversations and speak more naturally and fluently in everyday situations.

You’ll prepare before group sessions with listening, reading and vocabulary tasks based on a topic (e.g. Food). There will be a new topic every two weeks and new tasks every week. I will also send you links to other resources like videos and webpages before each speaking session.

In the speaking class, we’ll talk about the topic you prepared in our small group (4-10 learners max).

I will listen, ask questions and give you useful, solid feedback.

Suitable for A2 / B1 / B2 / C1 learners.

My Prepare to Speak English speaking group programme includes:

6 x topical small group Speaking sessions (75 mins) – every Friday (7.5 hours total class time)
Tutor support from me by email + chat (no AI!)
Feedback and correction of weekly writing tasks
Max 10 learners in each group
Your own online Google Classroom space to study and chat
Personal goals and Speaking Progress Report sheet (will be updated as the course progresses)
Weekly materials to work on before each session
Real-life speaking tasks, challenges and situations
Listening + vocabulary preparation
Optional writing practice and feedback

Course content
The main course focus is on topical vocabulary, functions and skills (reading, listening, speaking). This means English that you need for real situations and real conversations.
I help you learn to listen and understand English conversations. I will also show you how to speak English in a more natural way.
You will need to complete one short writing activity (e.g. an email) every week. This is not a grammar course, but I can explain random grammar problems by email / chat if you need help.
