With a Bachelor's in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from NTU, I understand what professionals need to excel in real-world communication. My classes help you: 🗣️ Master everyday and business conversation — practice meaningful dialogues to unlock fluency. 🔊 Improve pronunciation — targeted drills for clearer speech. 💬 Tackle workplace communication — role-play meetings and presentations. 🌏 Switch languages — instruction available in English or Chinese (繁體/简体) to support your learning journey.
