Dr. Anastasia Nelson

With over 15 years of teaching experience, I offer personalized English lessons for learners of all levels, from beginners who are taking their first steps to advanced students who want to improve their fluency and accuracy. I also provide focused preparation for the TOEFL examination.

My lessons begin with a careful assessment of each student’s current ability, goals, interests, and preferred way of learning. Based on this information, I prepare a practical study plan and select materials suited to the student’s needs. Lessons may include conversation, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, listening, reading, and writing. I explain difficult points clearly and give students enough time to practice them in realistic situations.

A typical lesson includes a short review, the introduction of new material, guided practice, and an activity that allows the student to use English independently. I provide patient correction and specific feedback, explaining both the mistake and how to improve it. When appropriate, I also assign manageable exercises between lessons so that students can reinforce what they have learned.

For TOEFL students, we work on reading, listening, speaking, and writing using practice questions and timed exercises. I teach useful test strategies, note-taking techniques, time management, and ways to organize spoken and written responses. We also identify weaker areas and monitor progress regularly.

I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. My lessons are supportive but purposeful: we work at a suitable pace while keeping clear goals in view. Whether you are studying English for an examination, work, travel, education, or everyday communication, I will adapt each lesson to help you become a more confident and capable English speaker.
