Achieve Higher Levels In Any Language - Not Just For Now
If you're working on learning a language by yourself, you'll know that traditional classroom learning does not work for many learners in the real world. But the language learning world is full of crazy promises: "Become fluent in weeks!", "Learn a Language in Your Sleep!", "Talk to Natives Every Waking Hour!".
But for you, this isn't about getting more done faster.
You want to feel confident and fluent in your target language for life, to discover the world through new eyes and make friends in other countries. You want to make language a part of your life.
I regularly hear from language learners who want nothing more than to find a routine that's regular and happy, but here's what they tell me:
> "My learning boosts are really sporadic and I just can't seem to commit"
> "I have spent so much money on new resources, but I see no progress"
> "I am already doing well, and now I have no idea where to go next."
If those thoughts sound familiar to you, talking to a language coach will help you.
I Can Help You Discover How To Learn Best
As an expert who is learning her 9th language and has been teaching languages for years, I want you to discover exactly what it takes to learn a language to a high standard.
What happens in a Session?
Here's a quick summary of what you can expect in the session, depending on where your priorities are:
- I will ask smart questions and practice active listening to pinpoint very clearly where your challenges are, and how we can start working on addressing them
- I will create your skills and styles profile to help you understand how you learn best
- You will think about your language studies and current level in a new way
- You will be guided through a reflective review process to understand your current language learning methods, and how they can work better for you
We'll create a system that makes language learning fun for you, and support you with some awesome resources that will keep you repeating and learning more words than ever before.
With such a large investment in your future, it pays to be smart about planning and committing to a project that will reward you for every minute and dollar you put in.
Coaching is more than just teaching you a language. In my 5 years of private tuition and running group classes with global student groups, I learnt one important thing:
Languages cannot be taught. It is always YOU who learns.
This is an investment that will pay off for years to come as you commit to making your target language a part of your daily routine, and learn how to establish that regular, happy routine you've been dreaming about.

FAQ
What's the difference between coaching/mentoring and tutoring?
Simply put, a mentoring partnership is about your individual methods and skills. I won't tell you what to do, instead I will help you discover your own potential to achieve your goals exactly. Language mentoring/coaching focuses on you and your own personal situation, so it's perfect for you if you want to discover what will suit your personality and language background. I refrain from giving direct advice but of course you'll benefit from me as a mentor during our sessions and I'll share all the knowledge you need with you.
What language level do I need for this?
I will work with you no matter if you're a total beginner or you're preparing for the advanced stages of language learning. All you need to bring is an open mind, a bag of questions, and the desire to find your personal path to fluency.
Do you offer exam coaching?
In my sessions we will focus on preparation techniques, success psychology, effective study, and prepare you thoroughly for language exams. But note that I do not offer language tutoring. I have worked with students from all kind of backgrounds who achieved A* grades from top universities as well as passes with disctinction in their target language exams.
