Improve Your English as a Mining Industry Professional the SMART way......
What kind of English learner have you been so far?
The truth is that learning any language is HARD.
It takes time. And it’s uncomfortable.
Many people start strong. They put in the hours and move (relatively) easily from beginner to intermediate.
And then get stuck.
They keep using the learning techniques that have worked until now. Memorization, ‘fill the gaps’ exercises and endless repetition.
But when they try to USE their English in the real word, they go blank.
They have been studying HARD. But not always working SMART.
What if you could see the improvement in your English that you NEED to see, and still manage all of your life demands at the same time?
Discover new ways to improve your English for work
My name is Kirsten Smith. I help burned out language learners move on from 1-1 formal structured lessons and into a smarter learning system where you use the language the way you need to in your job.
Not all English is equal. If you have been taking more general English classes and wondering why the English you use at work isn’t improving, you are not alone!
I use my career experience as a geologist/research metallurgist/process engineer in Australia and South East Asia to help you understand what matters in your language learning journey (and what doesn’t).
You don’t need to learn everything immediately. Prioritise what matters most and see real improvement quickly. I have developed targeted learning methods to maximise the outcome for all of your effort.
Since then, I have taught dozens of mining industry professionals how to work small but smart and create a sustainable learning routine that not only improves your English quickly, but is fun at the same time.
