*Improving listening comprehension skills within real-time conversational environments.
*Adding advanced English vocabulary, slang & Internet speak to their English language skills.
Session structure:
* 1-1 online text/audio/video Zoom conference sessions that focus on engaging, interesting, intelligent, humorous, and personally relevant conversational topics & content.
* Meant to mimic real-life conversational interactions encountered in business, academic and social environments. Each session is an individually customized conversation that addresses/reflects the interests and personality of the ESL client.
* Real-time feedback that focuses on improving the client’s self-correction speaking/listening skills within the conversational environment.
Methodology:
*As a Professional Conversationalist, I am a chameleon who will adapt to each and every client I work with. From casual to formal, social to government, academic to business, I always endeavor to find a comfortable conversational environment for each client I work with.
*Conversational engagement is primarily directed by the client unless the client requests otherwise.
*Conversational style, content, and interactions are unique to each client and will reflect the individual client’s personality and the objectives/goals the client seeks to achieve.
*All conversational content & sessions are kept in the strictest confidentiality.
