This class is taught in English.

Students will learn to read and speak English.  Correction of students' speech (pronunciation correction) is given to quickly improve pronunciation while learning new vocabulary, grammar and the core educational skills of listening, reading and speaking.  These one-on-one ESL lessons delivered by a certified ESL specialist are delivered according to the CEFR scale A0-C1 and are very effective within a short time using teaching techniques to ensure students understand the materials and achieve their learning goals of reading and speaking English and re-assessed using the CEFR test. 

Hello!  My name is Teacher Ericka.  I am a native English teacher from California, USA.  I am an experienced and certified English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL) specialist with a bachelor's degree from the United Kingdom and two teaching certificates, including Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) and Teach English Now TESOL Foundation from Arizona State University.  I have taught over 1,000 students.  My goal is for my students to speak like native speakers using very effective teaching techniques which build confidence and enable learners to overcome any barriers to learning English.  These are techniques not known to all ESL teachers and are very effective because they allow students to overcome any barriers to learning any subject.  I specialize in using these techniques to help children learn English, including teaching preschool-aged children to read, many of whom are 4 years olds and reading English, as well as pre-teen and teenage students on more advanced literacy levels.  With a fun approach to teaching, I make my students feel comfortable while learning English for an enjoyable experience.  Learning is an exciting adventure!  This wonder and enthusiasm in a child's heart needs to be matched with expert instruction and technique with a true sense of fun and spirit of play.  Come join me and enjoy 50% off your first lesson, which includes a complimentary placement test to get started.  This will assess your child’s international standard level of English known as the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).  This is the international standard for describing language ability.  It describes language ability on a six-point scale, from A1 for beginners, up to C2 for those who have mastered a language. I also include A0 (pre-A1) lessons for learners with no English knowledge.  I look forward very much to meeting you!  Teacher Ericka
