Introduction: Learn to communicate in English with clarity and confidence! I specialize in accent modification and spoken English. Of course, grammar and vocabulary are often a part of this. Our lessons are conducted via Skype or FaceTime, so you can learn from the comfort of your home or office at a time that is convenient for you. Lessons are individual, and tailored specifically to your needs. Whether you're preparing for a job interview, working on a presentation, or just want people to understand you more easily, I can help! Some clients have worked with me for over a year. Others have chosen to have 4 or 5 lessons. It all depends on you and your goals. I love to meet people from all walks of life. My favorite thing is to see the growing confidence as my students begin to speak more and more fluently.

Katie is a very good teacher. She is always punctual and friendly, always quiet but not boring. Conversely, Katie is very lively and interesting. Finding a teacher who teaches you to understand English acoustically when you are no longer young and have hearing problems was not easy. But with Katie it is going very well! I have been learning English with Katie for 3 months. I like her teaching method very much. During the lessons we play sometimes, sometimes I get homework on grammar and basically we just talk as friends - I tell Katie for example about a book I once read. Or Katie tells me a story and I have to hear it, understand it and retell it. I think this method helps to understand English by ear. Katie always tries to find topics that interest me. I have English classes on Tuesdays. I like my teacher and I love Tuesdays because every English lesson gives me something new and I feel more confident to communicate with people in America. Thanks, Katie!
