English Conversation - Learn to speak fluent English with a neutral accent

Learn basic English grammar, tenses, and vocabulary to become fluent in everyday conversation with a neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent.

Regardless of the many languages, one is fortunate to be fluent in, English takes its place as one of the world’s predominant forms of communication with its influences extending over as many as +2 billion people globally.

Where it all started

Many of you will be forgiven for thinking that studying an English Language course consists of English grammar more than anything else. While English grammar does play a part when taking courses to improve English overall, it is but a small part of the overall curriculum where one becomes immersed in a history that was partly influenced by myths, battles, and legends on one hand, and the everyday workings of its various social class on the other.

According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the English language itself really took off with the invasion of Britain during the 5th century. Three Germanic tribes, the Jutes, Saxons and Angles were seeking new lands to conquer and crossed over from the North Sea. It must be noted that the English language we know and study through various English language courses today had yet to be created as the inhabitants of Britain spoke various dialects of the Celtic language.

About Me

My name is Jawaid, and I look forward to teaching you. I currently reside in my home country of Pakistan, but I've also lived in the United States, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Sudan for several years apiece. I hold a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Business from a university located in New York.
میرا نام جاوید ہے، اور میں آپ کو پڑھانے کا منتظر ہوں۔ میں اس وقت اپنے آبائی ملک پاکستان میں مقیم ہوں، لیکن میں کئی سالوں سے امریکہ، سعودی عرب، کویت اور سوڈان میں بھی مقیم ہوں۔ میں نیویارک میں واقع یونیورسٹی سے بزنس میں بیچلر آف سائنس (BS) کی ڈگری رکھتا ہوں۔

Education

B.Sc. (General Business)
University of the State of New York
1988-1992

I provide conversational as well as reading/writing courses in Urdu. If you have any topics of interest, please go ahead and suggest them, and I will adjust my course to fit them in. Alternatively, I use scenarios of my own in order to teach, which include business settings, shopping, traveling, etc. There's an immense difference between learning a language and learning to speak it confidently, and I intend to help you bridge that gap and overcome your hesitation.

Experience / Qualifications

Head of Strategy

A Corporate Strategy & Marketing professional with over 25 years of experience in Hospitality, Tourism, and Retail banking. Currently, I am teaching subjects like languages (English and Urdu), business, and marketing.
As my native tongue, Urdu comes naturally to me, and I have experience teaching conversational as well as written Urdu and English to adults. I am patient and encouraging with my students, ensuring I adapt to their needs and provide them with the knowledge and confidence required to speak a foreign language with ease. Don't worry about making mistakes when learning with me: I will always guide you toward improvement.

Reviews (1)

Triggers wonder in and appreciation for the Urdu language. I signed up for 10 more classes after my first.
I am a native Urdu speaker and love this polite and cultured language. Those students who wish to speak Urdu for the sake of personal enjoyment and fulfillment – or even to converse with their spouses, friends, and family – will learn with me to speak the language with a fine neutral accent. I will provide several real-life scenarios and encourage students to hold hesitation-free conversations with a pleasant accent. At the end of successfully finishing this course, the student will be able to converse in Urdu without hesitation. Urdu is a beautiful language that is spoken by more than 200 million people worldwide in countries like Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, the United Arab Emirates, and other parts of the world. Urdu started developing in North India around Delhi in the 12th century. It was based on the language spoken in the area around Delhi and was heavily influenced by Arabic and Persian as well as Turkish. Urdu originates from Hindi, sometimes referred to as the 'sister' language of Urdu due to its grammatical basis. However, Hindi is written in 'Devanagari', a script similar to Sanskrit, and its vocabulary is influenced more by Sanskrit than by Persian and Arabic.

Nicoletta
Online certified TEFL teacher with over 1000 hours of experience
Hello, my name is Nicoletta and I am a certified native English tutor from the small island of Cyprus. However, both my parents have British roots and I have grown up speaking English as my primary language. As a person who has always been interested in other countries and cultures, I have embarked on learning new languages myself in the last few years. Most recently Korean! Doing this, I realised how important it is to have someone guide you and support you on your language learning journey. I hope to be that person for you, to aid you and support you with your experience of the English language. My classes for adults cover: Pronunciation Comprehension (listening and reading) Conversational English (e.g., hobbies, travel, nature, social media, culture, and more.) Functional English (e.g., at the supermarket, at the doctor's, at a hotel, at a restaurant, and more.) Grammar Exam preparation (IELTS and TOEFL) Idioms Writing Business English My classes for children cover: Vocabulary (e.g., daily routines, animals, hobbies, sports, family, jobs, food, emotions, weather, and more). Comprehension (listening and reading) Pronunciation Basic grammar Games (e.g., wordsearches, spot the difference, guessing games, and more.) Exam preparation (IELTS and TOEFL) I believe in tailoring each lesson to meet the students needs. I believe that the student is the most important person in any lesson and that the teacher should focus their material on the students’ goals, interests, and aspirations.
