Individual online courses for folk who deserve to feel good in English
Say goodbye to boring conversations, rigid curricula and awkward group classes…
This is where non-predominant neurotypes can learn without the pressure to conform.
You've spent too long forcing yourself through group classes. Now you're ready for a different approach.
Because even though you've reached a good level, you still don't feel like your English is good enough.
And every time you finish a course, you end up feeling worse than when you started. Why?
You’ve studied the same old stuff and had the same conversations on repeat.
You’ve used too many books in which you weren’t represented.
And you’ve sat through too many classes where your ideas weren’t heard.
You need learning that works with your mind, not against it.
You think deeply and you’d like your English to reflect that.
You want to be your authentic self in English.
I create courses for people whose brains work a bit differently
My one-to-one courses are perfect if you want to:
filter out group noise and relax into your English
work with an encouraging and empathetic teacher
talk about topics that really matter to you
enrich and activate your vocabulary
be better understood when speaking English
find your authentic voice
learn in an inclusive space that welcomes neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ students
My one-to-one courses are probably not for you if:
you’re working below B1+ level
you’re only interested in doing grammar exercises
you don’t enjoy digging into new language
you only want to learn for an hour a week
you don’t want to practise your English in your own time
you’re not an LGBTQIA+ ally
you’re not a dog lover (this one doesn’t matter as much but my whippets might feature at some point!)
Grow Pack
This isn’t a one-hour-a-week kind of a programme!
Working with me includes mini challenges to take into the real world, live lessons that are totally tailored to you and voicenote support that extends your learning beyond the online classroom and keeps you accountable.
You get:
3 or 6 months of personalised online learning and ongoing support, which includes…
A needs analysis
A learning plan with negotiated goals
Bespoke learning materials
Activities at the right level of challenge
Curated lists of English resources that you will want to read, watch or listen to
Detailed language notes
Specific and constructive feedback
Regular live one-to-one sessions
The duration and frequency of the live sessions is designed around you and your schedule. Here’s how it could look:
One of my clients likes to learn for around 90 minutes, including two short breaks.
Another client prefers to work independently for a week, then meets me online the following week for an hour’s recap and practice session.
And another meets me twice a week for a short skills booster.
Plus!
Telegram or Signal voicenote support throughout the course - for pronunciation practice, motivational moments and added accountability from your enthusiastic but calm cheerleader. That’s me, by the way.
3-month Grow Pack = £499
Start in October, January or April
6-month Grow Pack = £999
Start in October or January
“Building an appropriate tone of voice has helped me to ask for clarification. You clarify pronunciation so I can read between the lines with intonation. This has helped me to build transparent working relationships.”

Power Hour
This Power Hour is perfect for you if you need an English boost ahead of a challenging speaking event, such as a speech at a conference, a job interview or a presentation at work.
Get some clarity on the sounds of your spoken English and feel more secure when speaking. We might work on your vowels, pace, intonation or sentence stress. We might work on message, visuals or gesture. You will definitely feel more powerful and more confident by the end of our time together.
This is how it works:
1. Prepare
You'll have an initial call with me to discuss your speaking goals and specific areas you'd like to improve. Then, you'll sign an agreement, upload a recording and answer a set of personalised questions to help me prepare for our session.
2. Power Hour
You'll join a 60-minute one-to-one live session in which we work purely on your spoken English. You'll get the fully tailored feedback you need to rise to your speaking challenge.
3. Plus
After the session, you'll receive the notes, with a summary and links to any further resources. You'll also receive a strategy checklist or a session recording and...
...up to five minutes per weekday (for ten days) of Signal or Telegram voicenote support during our work together - for extra motivation, confidence in self-expression and practical pronunciation tips.
A single investment of £149
The Power Hour is best completed over two weeks.
“If you need professional guidance and a personalised approach, I would highly recommend this Power Hour. Tree’s advice was key to my interview success.”

The ELTree difference
Classes totally tailored to you

What’s on your mind?
-
You will have a free clarity call with me to discuss your aims and specific needs and to see how we could work together. You will be asked to complete a learning questionnaire to help me plan your course.

Live sessions happen on Google Meet. It’s best if you use a laptop or computer to join, rather than a smartphone. We use Telegram or Signal and Google Drive to share learning resources, self-study activities and feedback. Headphones and a quiet learning space are always helpful.
-
With my help! Your learning schedule is discussed and planned in advance. I set up the sessions with the meeting link and a calendar/email reminder. There is room for some flexibility but meeting as agreed is important! We can also keep in touch via Telegram/Signal.

You can pay via bank transfer (UK) or Wise (international). Prices are in GBP £. A booking cannot go ahead unless a payment has been received. Payment for Grow & Exam Prep packs is made in two or three instalments, with the first of these in advance.
