By Evelina Silveira
My name is Evelina Silveira; I am TEFL certified, a diversity trainer specializing in intercultural communication, a certified mediator, a trilingual speaker, and the president of my 18- year- old company.
I know that learning a language well enough to conduct business can be a challenge. Your time is precious as an adult, and you want results quickly.
I have worked as an English as a Foreign Language Teacher for over three years with various learners from Asia, South America, Europe and the Middle East. During this time, I have learned about the different struggles various linguistic groups experience.
No matter where English as a Foreign Language speakers reside, they encounter the same issues:
- Lacking the opportunities to practice speaking English.
- Completing grammar-intense English classes that did not emphasize speaking skills such as pronunciation or intonation.
- Adopting non-native English-speaking teachers’ grammatical and pronunciation errors
- Fossilizing errors
- Feeling reasonably comfortable with writing but being afraid to speak in public.
- Lacking the vocabulary and confidence to get their points across
If you have at least a lower intermediate level of understanding of grammar and speaking skills, I can help you to gain the confidence and proficiency you need to advance.
