About

A practice, kept small on purpose.

Talk with Abby is one teacher with a limited number of hours in the week. That is the whole business model, and it is the reason the classes feel nothing like a platform.

About Abby

One teacher. The same one, every week.

There is no call centre here, and no pool of tutors. You will not be reassigned to someone new because a schedule shifted, and you will never open a class to find a stranger reading your notes for the first time.

I keep the practice small on purpose. I remember the word you couldn’t find three weeks ago, the interview you were preparing for, the sound your language doesn’t have. That memory is most of the teaching.

My learners are adults with real work to do in English — engineers, doctors, founders, people moving countries. We are not studying English. We are getting you heard.

What I believe about teaching

Fluency is nerve, not vocabulary

Most adults I meet already know more English than they can use. The work is rarely learning new words; it is being willing to finish the sentence.

One point at a time

A class that corrects everything teaches nothing. We take one grammar point or one sound and stay with it until it becomes yours.

Your life is the syllabus

Your standup, your client, your landlord, your in-laws. Textbook dialogues are written for nobody in particular, which is why they help nobody in particular.

Small on purpose

I cap the practice so I can remember every learner's history. Growth past that point would mean hiring strangers, and then this becomes a marketplace.

In their words

What learners say.

Written by learners after at least ten classes, shared with their permission and published under their initials.

One to one
I could always read and write English. Speaking in a meeting was the problem. Abby made me rehearse the exact meeting, twice, and by the third week I stopped translating in my head.

Circle
Five of us, twice a week, and nobody hides. The written letter after each class is the part I did not expect — I keep them all and my old mistakes have stopped coming back.

Private team circle
We booked a closed circle for six engineers. Abby learned what our product does before the first class, so the practice was our work, not textbook English. Client calls are calmer now.
