How do I start?

The sessions need to be paid for in advance, as a 10-session subscription. You can pay by bank transfer, or by debit or credit card (via PayPal).

Do you offer in-person coaching sessions?

In-person sessions are primarily available in Joensuu and the North Karelia region of Finland, although other locations in Finland will also be considered. Travel expenses will apply for all in-person sessions, unless otherwise agreed. Please get in touch to find out more.
What does the price include?
You get much more than just the 60-minute session. The price includes a needs assessment, design of coaching sessions for YOUR needs, learning materials, feedback and support. We will assess your current language skills and make a plan to help you communicate better in English, according to your needs. There will be detailed preparation before each session and where required, follow-up notes to aid your private study. Support via email or WhatsApp between sessions is also included.
​
How do we schedule the sessions?
​
After the free consultation we can agree a regular appointment time. If you ever need to reschedule, just get in touch and we can agree a new time via WhatsApp or email.
​
How often should I have a coaching session?
It is up to you how often you have a coaching session, but in order to maintain progress we strongly recommended that you have at least one session a week, if not more. Even with one session a week you will soon start to see progress and increase your confidence speaking English.
