  • tenses & aspect review (perfect, continuous, narrative tenses)
  • linkers, discourse markers & cohesion devices

  • adjective patterns; verb patterns
  • participle clauses
  • conditionals (mixed & speculative)
  • modal verbs for speculation & deduction
  • sentence structure & emphasis
  • relative clauses & reduced structures
  • compound nouns and noun phrases
The goal is not "grammar for grammar's sake", but accuracy that supports fluent communication.

Develop confident, natural communication through:

  • structured discussions on course topics
  • controlled accuracy tasks
  • fluency rounds
  • functional language for expressing opinions, agreeing/disagreeing, softening, persuading
  • pronunciation and clarity work
  • storytelling practice (narrative skills, anecdotes)
Each module includes Speaking Packs for extra practice.

Authentic texts and exam-level input to strengthen comprehension:

  • articles
  • podcasts
  • short videos
  • texts based on Cambridge / Oxford / Pearson materials
Focus:
  • identifying key ideas
  • extracting vocabulary
  • analysing speaker/writer attitude

About the teacher

Meet Your Teacher: Karina Tumasyan

The moment I was given my very first English coursebook I couldn’t contain my curiosity. Years of learning that followed have only made it more obvious: there are just a few other things that excite me as much as the phenomenon of language. I obtained a degree in foreign languages and teaching to share the joy of discovering the intricacies of English with my students.

My qualifications include:

  • CELTA certification
  • MA Linguistics, PhD in Philology (in progress)
  • CAE Grade A, CPE Grade A

My mission is simple: to help you start thinking in English.
