Description

Welcome to my English course for intermediate students. This course is the 'sequel' to Master English Conversation Pre-Intermediate Level. On this course, you will learn not only the grammar, but also the vocabulary that is necessary to progress to an upper-intermediate level. I am a British teacher with more than 20 years' experience, who enjoys using a variety of methods to teach students. I use a white board to explain how the grammar works, and I often use pictures to teach new vocabulary. Please speak to your monitor when you are doing this course, and your conversational skills will improve quickly. The course includes the following:Downloadable lectures on the most important grammar topics. (tenses, quantifiers, reporting verbs, phrasal verbs, auxiliary verbs, reported speech, modal verbs, conditionals, gerunds, infinitives, comparatives, superlatives, articles, and passive)A range of topics that will enhance your vocabulary (cooking, sport, driving, common verb phrases, transport, health, complaints, personality, houses and property, history, education, science, cinema, work, crime, weather)I don't speak incredibly slowly, as though you were a beginner. I understand that you need faster speech so that you can make your way to an upper-intermediate level. Please preview one of my classes, and you will understand whether this course is too basic or too advanced. I have easier courses (pre-intermediate and beginner) AND more difficult courses (advanced grammar, advanced vocab, phrasal verbs) should you need them. Repetition of the vocabulary in different lessons and quizzes, so that the new words and phrases are easier to memorizeQuizzes after each and every lecture, and many of them include images, as I believe that pictures help you memorize both the grammar and the vocabulary.Ask questions on the Q and A section if you need clarification, and I respond within 24 hoursLearn how to avoid the most common mistakes New lectures uploaded every month. I will be adding an adapted version of Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'The Scarlet Letter' over the next few months, with comprehension exercises for each chapter. Lifetime membership
