“Dear Catherine,
You’re an incredibly competent, generous, thoughtful, and supportive teacher. You inspire enthusiasm and curiosity, giving accurate and careful feedback and listening attentively to your students with real interest in them. This is precious. Thank you so much for your lessons.” — Sabina Damiani, Italy
“I really like that the {course is} in Dogme "explorative" style and relevant because I can bring to our classes what we are working on with students. Your feedback and materials are amazing and inspiring. Also, it's not overwhelming. Thank you so much. I feel how I start hearing more things like connected speech, pauses, and so on. And I'm able to explain to my students better too.” — Maria Glazunova, Ukraine
“Catherine has exceeded all of my expectations. She has not only noticed aspects of my pronunciation that could be improved but has also given helpful, objective, and - most importantly - kind feedback, which has allowed me to better understand my own difficulties and my students’ as well.” — Bruna Passos, Brazil
“Catherine, thank you for your feedback. I'm so happy I've improved the sounds which I find difficult. And I need to tell you that I've noticed that my confidence during the classes with my students has improved since I joined your course. Thanks again.” — Joanna Radomska, Poland
“You’ll get a new perspective of learning and teaching pronunciation. This is a 100% hands on course, not only did I improve my own pronunciation skills but I could also help my learners with their struggles with support of Catherine and my fellow teacher.” - Talita Rochetti, Seattle, USA

Your English matters.

You want to keep speaking naturally and with confidence in your day to day life, and especially with our students.
Use your advanced English with me. We’ll focus on accuracy (because you want to be sure you’ve got it right), but also on that more relaxed, messy way of speaking English that helps you model informal English with your students too.

"Hear You Go!" A Podcast for English Learners
Listening matters.
Sure we listen all the time…for ideas. That’s good.
But to listen better, to speak better, we’ve got to listen for the sounds of English.
English is fast, connected, messy.
Hear You Go podcast is for intermediate and advanced curious people who want to practice listening.
Listen for more than just new vocabulary: listen for word and sentence stress, contractions and reductions, and rhythm and intonation… all those sounds you find in fast, connected, messy spoken English.
But also listen ‘cuz it’s interesting and fun!
