How it works

Four steps, no overwhelm.

A calm, clear path from first hello to fluent conversation.

  1. 01

    Intro call

    Twenty minutes, free. We talk about why you're learning, what trips you up, and whether we're a good fit. No sales pitch.

  2. 02

    Your personal plan

    I build a short plan around your goals — the situations you face, the words you need, the habits that will move you forward.

  3. 03

    Weekly 1:1 lessons

    Forty-five minutes, just us. Real conversation, gentle correction, and a little homework that actually fits your week.

  4. 04

    Progress you can track

    After each lesson you get a short note on what we covered and what to practise. You'll see the difference month to month.

Lesson tracks

Three ways to work together.

Pick the track that matches where you are — we can blend them too.

Track 01

Conversational

For everyday confidence — small talk, travel, making friends, ordering without rehearsing. We talk about your life, not a textbook.

  • Natural fluency & rhythm
  • Everyday vocabulary
  • Listening & understanding accents
Track 03

Academic & Exam-prep

For IELTS, TOEFL and university study. Structured practice, timed tasks, and honest feedback on exactly where your marks are slipping.

  • IELTS / TOEFL strategy
  • Academic writing & essays
  • Speaking with structure

About the tutor

Hi, I'm Claire.

I'm a native English speaker from Dublin, and I've been teaching online for over eight years. I've helped engineers, founders, nurses and students find their voice in English — not by drilling grammar, but by talking about things that matter to them.

My approach is simple: you do the talking, I do the listening. I correct gently, explain clearly, and celebrate the small wins that build real confidence.

  • Native speaker, TEFL-certified
  • 8+ years teaching 1:1 online
  • Patient, warm, zero judgement

Testimonials

Words from students.

“I had my first job interview in English after six months of lessons with Claire. I got the offer. She made me feel like I could actually do it.”
Marco R. Product Manager · Milan
“What I loved is that we never used a textbook. We talked about my work, my travels, my life. My fluency improved without me even noticing the effort.”
Yuki T. UX Designer · Tokyo
“I needed IELTS 7.0 for my master's. Claire's feedback was so specific — she'd point to the exact sentence that lost me marks. I scored 7.5.”
Ana S. Graduate Student · Madrid

FAQ

Good questions.

Not at all. I work with complete beginners through to advanced speakers. We start where you are and build from there — the first lesson is about finding your level and your goals.

Just a quiet space, a laptop or phone, and a decent internet connection. We meet over video call — no special software, no downloads. A notebook helps, but it's optional.

The trial is a 30-minute intro call — we get to know each other, I assess your level, and we sketch a plan. There's no obligation and no card required. If we're a good fit, you can book your first real lesson.

Life happens. You can reschedule up to 12 hours before a lesson at no cost. I keep my calendar flexible because I know your week isn't always predictable.
