Advanced Writing and Grammar

These lessons focus on grammar practice and writing exercises personally tailored to meet your needs.  The typical schedule for this course is a one-hour class that meets once or twice  a week.  Students usually reach their goals in 2 - 5 weeks. (for intermediate to advanced ESL and native speaker students)

Business English

TOEFL Preparation

These private lessons start with a pre-test assessment to determine areas that need improvement, then continue with with extensive, focused exercises designed to improve areas of weakness, with multiple test simulations to improve test-taking techniques and measure progress.

American Pronunciation

In the first lesson, the instructor determines your exact pronunciation issues, and the lessons after that focus on improving stress, rhythm and pronunciation.  These lessons meet one hour, three times a week. Typically it takes a student 9 - 12 hours of instruction for substantial improvement, and you are encouraged to record these lessons for further practice at home.. (for intermediate to advanced ESL students)

General ESL Skills

These lessons meet for one to two hours, three to five days a week .  After two weeks of intensive lessons, students are able to join in basic day-to-day conversation. (for absolute beginners and low-beginner students)

All private lesson schedules can be taken in an intensive format (5 days a week, 2-3 hours per day).
