Hi guys, Born in South Africa and having lived in Germany for a number of years, I can definitively say that I have reached a high level of language proficiancy in English and German and can be of great value to anyone who would like to brush up on their English. Whether a beginner or someone studying at university, I cater for all levels of English learning. I believe that the essence of learning a language is by speaking it. Living for a certain period of time in an English speaking country is also of high value. And, the consistent learning of vocabulary and grammatical structures is also a path to success. As an early pensioned teacher in the field of vocational economics, I also have expertise and experience in the field of coaching and business English. Having further worked for many years as a technical translator, proofreader, ghostwriter and online editorial journalist I command the English language with ease. My approach to coaching English is based on sound didactical steps and relies on the active participation of the learner. The money spent by the leaner for lessons must be worthwile. Quiet frankly, without the required motivation and input from the learner, I cannot guarantee the succees of coaching and would therefore stop the lessons, if the later would occur. So, as a first step, I offer a free 45min session to assess the motivation and English proficiency of the potential learner. The right chemistry is also an important factor. Lessons are conducted in the comfort of your home. I look forward to hearing from you Kind regards Trevor
