Walk and Talk in English: Improve Your Conversational Skills

Walk and Talk in English

Join me for a unique and engaging way to improve your conversational English. Every day at 12pm, I take a walk with my dog, Loki, through beautiful natural settings. This is your opportunity to practice English in a relaxed and informal environment.

In nature, people tend to be more themselves and open up more than in a home office or school setting. There is no set agenda, so you can chat about anything you like. Whether you want to discuss current events, your hobbies, or specific topics, I'm here to help you improve your fluency and confidence in English. If you have a particular subject in mind, just let me know!

Extra information

Meeting Point: We will meet at my home in Heemstede.
Walking Shoes: Please wear comfortable walking shoes suitable for uneven terrain.
Pace: The walk will be at a moderate pace, but we can adjust it to suit your comfort level.
Dress for the Weather: Please dress appropriately for the weather. Bring a jacket or umbrella if it's rainy, and wear sunscreen and a hat if it's sunny.
Water Bottle: Bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during the walk.
Duration: The walk and talk session will last approximately one hour.
Friendly Companion: My dog is a friendly and excitable Bernese Mountain Dog who loves attention and cuddles! He'll be joining us on the walk.

Gain confidence in speaking English with complete immersion
English is falsely presented as an easy language, especially by French speakers. This is a serious mistake! While French is often difficult because of the many grammatical exceptions, particularly regarding spelling, English is endowed with immense complexity in terms of its sounds. Whereas the French speaker complains about itchy eyes, the English speaker will have difficulty hearing you, and no, it's not snobbery; their ear has been educated in a more subtle way. The greatest difficulties in English come from its chaotic sounds, which at first seem absurd or even useless, while they are proof of the many influences and transformations of this language, which has become the de facto lingua franca almost everywhere on the planet. To simplify, English is the result of a Germanic invasion of Celtic lands, Latinized by Vikings speaking Old French from Normandy. The syntax is originally Germanic, but the auxiliary verb do is Celtic, and more than half of its vocabulary is Latin or French! In short, English is much more complex and subtle than it seems, and it's not for nothing that most French speakers pronounce it badly!

English communication skills. Become a more confident and successful communicator
Improve your ability to confidently and successfully communicate in English. This means not only building grammar and vocabulary but also developing communication skills and strategies. Many courses focus only on linguistic competence (grammar exercises), but communication involves so many other competences, including discourse competence (structuring and connecting your ideas); sociolinguistic and pragmatic competence (politeness strategies; using tact to discuss difficult situations; influencing; persuading etc); and strategic competence (using strategies to help maintain clear and fluent communication when you don ́t know the ideal way to express your ideas). I also specialise in listening skills and strategies, such as developing phonological awareness to help develop your ability to process fast speech. Other specialisms include pronunciation, with objective to help not only clear and fluent speech, but to aid listening ability too.

Economics, English, and Business Tutoring. Assist with mastering concepts: Understanding Tools and Mechanisms
Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of helping students tackle subjects that can feel intimidating at first but are incredibly rewarding once you start to understand them. Whether it's Economics, English, or Business, I’ve seen firsthand how small breakthroughs can lead to big moments of confidence. In Economics, I love taking complex concepts like supply and demand, market structures, and economic policies and breaking them down into something that makes sense. I've had many students who started feeling lost, but once we worked through a few examples together, they realized that economics isn’t as difficult as it seems—it’s all about understanding the patterns and relationships. When it comes to English, I’ve helped countless students refine their writing and communication. Whether it’s crafting a compelling essay, improving grammar, or just feeling more comfortable reading difficult texts, I've been there with my students through every step. The best part? Seeing the growth from struggling with basic concepts to confidently expressing themselves in writing and conversation. And in Business, I’ve worked with students ranging from those who dream of running their own companies to those looking to ace their business courses. Together, we dive into the foundations of marketing, management, and finance, and I love seeing those "aha" moments when the dots connect. It’s such an exciting field because it’s all about real-world applications, and I make sure to tie lessons back to the skills students need for future success. What I’ve learned from tutoring in these subjects is that each student has a unique learning style, and my goal is always to tailor the experience to what works best for them. Whether you need extra help preparing for an exam, want to polish your writing, or are looking to understand how business really works in the world, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
