I am deeply interested in all things Sweden, and this passion informs my teaching.

My approach
My approach
My teaching is rooted in the Communicative Approach (CA), which prioritises real-world interaction, genuine discussion, and using authentic texts. I focus on developing communicative competence (being understood) and sociolinguistic competence (using language appropriately for context), and I actively avoid fluency-stagnating drills. However, I differ from many CA teachers by believing that grammar and pronunciation require direct, explicit attention. My instruction adheres to the Noticing Hypothesis: I strategically guide your attention to gaps in knowledge or persistent errors. For pronunciation, I use phonetically-informed prompts to target issues affecting intelligibility. For grammar, I provide evaluative feedback notes after the session, targeting specific errors that impede meaning.
