The Challenge

It’s easy to feel stuck when you don’t know where to focus your time. Many learners work hard but don’t see results. That’s why I’ve created a program that gives you the direction, structure, and accountability you need to finally move forward.

My Program

Most students don’t realize it takes around 150 hours to change your CLB level. That’s why my program combines lessons, homework, and feedback to give you the time and support you need to succeed.

I'm a native English speaker and I've taught at universities, colleges and non-profits.

I've worked with thousands of students from all over the world, helping them build practical English skills and feel more confident communicating in everyday life in Canada.

Four private lessons cost $320 CAD plus tax. You can pay the full amount upfront or pay $80 CDN plus tax per week.

If you choose weekly payments, your credit card will automatically be charged $80 plus tax each week for 4 weeks.

What dates and times are available?

Sign up for the MG's English email list to learn what dates are available.

How long are private lessons?

You'll have four weekly, 60-minute private online lessons.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

Life happens! MG's English has a cancellation and rescheduling policy that explains what happens if you miss a lesson or need to change your schedule.

You'll read and agree to this policy when you apply for private lessons.

What English level do I need for Private Lessons?

You need to be a CLB 5 or higher in reading & writing and speaking & listening.

What do you expect from students?

MG gives her students 100%, and she expects 110% in return!

You must attend your lessons, complete your homework, follow instructions, and take responsibility for your progress.

Most importantly, you need to use English outside our lessons. We don't want you to study English for one hour and then forget about it for the rest of the week!

What happens during our lessons?

We will work on speaking & listening.  Our time together is based on what you did during the week. 

We'll talk about what you tried, what worked, what was difficult, and where you got stuck. 

Sometimes MG sill teach you something new and sometimes you'll practice. 

You will always be challenged you to step outside your comfort zone.

How much homework will I have?

Expect at least 3 hours of homework, in addition to your weekly one hour lesson. 

You must have time to complete your homework and practice English outside your lessons.

What happens if I don't complete my homework?

Homework is required. If you don't complete it by the due date, your lesson will be cancelled and will not be rescheduled or refunded.

How do I sign up for private lessons?

Private lessons are application-based, and we only accept a limited number of students. 

Applying doesn't guarantee a spot.

When spots become available, we send an email our email list with the details and a link to apply.

Is the application for Private Lessons long or hard?

Not at all! 😊 It's two questions.  You need to write 2 to 3 sentence for each question. 

It's a good way for MG to get to know a little bit about you and see if you're a good fit.

If you fill out the application you will still have a quick video call with MG before you pay.

What happens after I apply?

MG will email you to set up a quick video call. 

You'll talk about your English goals, why you want private lessons, and decide together if the lessons are right for you. 

If you both agree, you'll pay for your lessons and get started!
