Hi, I'm Vickie!

I help adult English learners from around the world feel confident in everyday English conversations—whether at work, with friends, or while traveling.

No matter where you live, enjoyable English conversations can be yours. 🥰

Speaking of conversations 😏

The key to your English improving is practicing conversations.

No matter how much you’ve studied grammar. 

No matter how much reading you do. 

No matter how great your listening is. 

What you really need is that everyday practice so that you feel confident walking into a sales meeting, traveling all over, or chatting with English speaking friends.

That’s why I created these YouTube conversations so you can be a fly on the wall while observing ours. 

To practice your own conversations, I created this monthly program called Voice Message Speaking Practice, which has weekly speaking topics just for you.
