Practical conversational English for everyday
life and work.
Talk Time Tutoring helps adults feel more confident speaking English in daily life, at work and out in the community.
One-to-one tutoring runs from our North Shore, Auckland base, with every session personalised to your English level, your goals and the pace that suits you. We'll focus on what matters to you, whether that's conversation, pronunciation, grammar, or simply understanding the way Kiwis speak.
For businesses and organisations, we offer tailored workplace English coaching for individuals or small groups — delivered on-site and focused on the real conversations and communication skills your team members use in their roles.
No dry textbooks, no exam drills. Just useful English and the confidence to use it in everyday Kiwi life.
