Impress as Intermediates - Refine Your English! (short)
Are you unhappy with your basic English? Do you want to be able to say more, in a better way, in specific contexts? Express yourself like a native would by fine-tuning your English!
Description
If you are 16 years or older and already can speak English well enough to express yourself in a simple way, but want to sound more polished and be able to converse fluently in English, this lesson is for you!
We will use a combination of casual conversation, advanced grammar lessons, and audio and video material to familairise you with idioms, synonyms, similes, adages and other concepts that native speakers use to spice up their language. We will also tackle more complex grammar, such as talking about hypotheticals.
Your language will thus acquire character and a certain individual charm!
We can also focus on learning refined English for use in formal contexts, such as in academia, business or public services.
You can choose to take a 15 - 30 minute written test before our first lesson to enable me to judge your level and prepare accordingly, or we can allocate the first 15 minutes of the class for it.
(I also offer a longer version of the same class.)
