Junior high school English support (ages 12–15)
I taught English in junior high schools for five years, and saw every year how students lose confidence as English gets harder in each grade. Many fall behind in class but feel too self-conscious to ask questions. These one-to-one lessons are a place to catch up and get back on track before giving up.
Who it’s for
- Students falling behind in school English
- Students whose test scores have stalled
- Students preparing for high school entrance exams
- Students taking the Eiken test
- Help with homework and assignments
- Students who don’t dislike English but lack confidence
How lessons work
Lessons are one-to-one, so we go at your child’s pace. Grammar and expressions they didn’t understand at school are explained again from the basics; sorting out where they first got stuck makes everything afterwards much easier.
Lessons focus on reviewing for school tests, with homework help and Eiken preparation too. For students facing high school entrance exams, I also offer the exam preparation below.
High school entrance exam preparation
I prepare students for the English section of high school entrance exams, with a study plan built around their target school and the time left before the exam.
- A complete review of junior high school grammar and vocabulary
- Practice with past entrance exam papers, and how to approach each question type
- Reading, writing and listening practice
- Eiken preparation for students who want to use it in their application
Lessons are 50 minutes, one-to-one and online via Google Meet. See prices.
Start with a trial lesson to talk about your child’s level and goals. Read about trial lessons or email me.
