Did you know that what we study as British English is also called BBC English, or Queen's English, or to be more precise Received Pronunciation.

I always recommend that students use materials from BBC Learning English as they are suitable for all levels and there is definitely enough materials to feed your curiosity.

Navigating multicultural environments

Learning English goes beyond words. At English with Nev, I strive to help people understand the boundaries that separate us, both linguistically and culturally. We try to break down the differences, understand them and then synthesize the knowledge so that you can open your eyes to different perspectives, differences communication styles and international working environment.

You can always listen to Erin Meyer, one of the leading experts in the field of English for intercultural learners.

English as a global lingua franca

Did you know that English is known as the language of business communication? At the moment, over 80% of the world's population use English as their official working language, and this number is expected to rise. 

As learners of English, we learn the best when immersed in the language and the content that is related to us. Below, you can find different media to help you understand the global business environment a bit better.

English for general education

Language learning is deeply connected with real life information sources. I encourage my students to explore topics of interest in English.

Students are encouraged to listen to a wide array of topics, from science, arts, history to philosophical and psychological discussions in order to improve their listening and comprehension skills along with further educating themselves.
