What helps

Your week, in the lesson.

  1. Bring the real conversation.

    The call you’re dreading, the letter you didn’t understand. That’s where the hour starts.

  2. A tutor who knows these conversations.

    Every Glossalyse tutor starts from your situations, not a textbook.

  3. Something to use before next week.

    Leave with what to keep, what to fix and what to say next time.

Before you decide

What you can see for yourself.

After your lesson

Example
Keep

Could you say that again, a bit slower?

Polite and clear. Keep it ready for phone calls.

Fix

I want to make a complain about the heating.
I’d like to make a complaint about the heating.

Complaint is the noun; I’d like sounds softer than I want.

Use next

Use “I’m calling about …” when you ring the landlord.

Tell your tutor how it went.

Before you decide

A few things you might wonder.

Ask us something else
I get by every day. Is that enough to start?

Yes. Getting by is a good place to start: your tutor works on the conversations that still cost you effort.

Can lessons fit around my week?

You pick a weekly time with Jon from his open hours. It stays yours every week.

Can I try a lesson first?

Yes. If you haven’t paid us for lessons or a plan before, you can book one trial lesson with Jon for £6. Cancel any time before it starts and you get the £6 back.
