Teach clearly. Lead confidently.
Teaching in English is challenging—especially if you're explaining complex subjects or managing parent meetings. We help you build the language skills and confidence to handle any classroom situation.
Professional development, not just practice.
We don't use generic conversation topics. We focus on the specific technical language required for education.
Instructional Control
Eliminate confusion. Learn to give clear, step-by-step instructions that keep your class focused and on task.
Subject Matter Teaching
Teach complex texts with confidence. Build the vocabulary to discuss themes, analyze characters, and explain literary devices in English.
Academic Vocabulary
Move beyond the textbook. Develop the advanced vocabulary needed to lead deeper discussions on literature, science, or social studies.
The "Teacher Voice"
Learn the subtle difference between being "friendly" and being "authoritative" through tone and intonation.
Classroom challenges we help with
International teachers face unique communication challenges. Here are the most common situations we work on together:
Giving Clear Instructions
You need students to follow multi-step directions without confusion. We practice giving clear instructions, making sure they understand, and handling behavioral issues calmly. Focus: Giving directions students can follow, checking understanding, handling behavioral issues.
Teaching English Literature and Texts
You're teaching English books, short stories, or complex texts to students. We analyze the materials together, build the vocabulary you need, and practice explaining themes, characters, and literary devices clearly. Focus: Analyzing English texts, teaching vocabulary in context, discussing themes and literary elements.
Teaching Complex Subjects
For teachers of Science, History, or Literature. We analyze the complex texts you need to teach and build the vocabulary you need to explain them simply. Focus: Explaining complex ideas simply, building subject-specific vocabulary, leading class discussions.
