Group classes
During the lessons, you will discuss fascinating, useful topics that are not in textbooks, improve your language with modern and lively vocabulary in the company of like-minded people, and also look at ideas and chips for your classes!
You have a high level of language/you are an English teacher;
You want to use a lively, modern language and sound natural;
Do you want to discuss relevant and useful topics in the classroom;
Do you want to talk a lot about your personal experience;
You want to develop in the company of cool, close-minded people.
Before starting to work with each of the potential participants, I conduct a free 30-minute interview, where we will conduct needs analysis and see if we will be comfortable working together.
Lessons are held once a week for 80 minutes;
Group of 6-8 people;
Study buddy thing (I will assign you one of the group's partners, with whom you need to call during the week and do the activities I have prepared to repeat and consolidate the material you have passed);

Bonus in the form of monthly group masterminds on methodology issues.
On the Miro virtual and interactive whiteboard, where we work together with all participants in real time.
Since these are group classes, if you can't attend the lesson, the payment for it will be charged anyway, since the lesson will be held. But I will make and send you a recording of the meeting and all the completed materials, so that you don't miss anything.
