Yes Please English- High quality online learning
Gorebridge, Scotland, United Kingdom
Aim
Yes Please English provides free online English tutorials, photographic language resources and affordable one-to-one lessons.
Students will be benefiting from online resources that will help them learn a new language or enhance their current level of proficiency.
Students nowadays have access to an incredible amount of English-language material online. But while this is clearly beneficial, it can also be a bit off-putting. Students don’t always know where to go for the most appropriate material.
We are in the process of creating and designing our own materials.
We refer to popular, widely used English learning books to ensure all aspects of language study will be covered and practiced. We also ensure of the relevance of content and the ease-of-use of varied language learning resources like books, movies, songs, posts, videos, blogs etc. while focusing on soft skills; communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and other relevant skills irrespective of students' level of proficiency.
Apart from embedding all these elements into our language training, we also want to give student choices of choosing what they want to learn about and therefore have created a set of lessons that will involve futuristic and interactive technology, depending on the budget.
In addition to creation of the free materials and personalised lessons, we also make recommendations on using and referring to relevant online dictionaries, translators and other innovative help tools that are always available online for general use and will support their learning experience.
What are the different ‘levels’ of learning will we be offering?
Our website www.yespleaseenglish.co.uk offers a section called The Zone-out room. We wanted to create a space where student can feel comfortable.
The Zone-out room includes activities that help students to keep things in perspective, where students can stop for some learning tips, improve their motivation, beat stress techniques or learn English with Gino Meowchonni.

Our mission is to provide inspiring and empowering learning through having fun.
We want support students in reaching their goals and gaining confidence. We want to specialise in unlocking individual potential at language learning and thinking outside-the-box.
We believe studying should be fun and it is never too late to learn a new language or enhance own language skills.
The materials we are in the process of creating, are being designed in ways that would have been impossible some years ago. Nearly every student now carries a powerful version of a mini-computer, video camera and audio recorder in their pocket which means that technology is the future of learning English as a second language.
The main goal of our online resources is promoting the English language. We believe that our offered materials and lessons will be a solid guarantee of great results.

My name is Nikoleta Behrendt and I'm the owner and founder of Yes Please English. I have completed CELTA, CAE and a Master’s degree in Tourism Management. I started teaching independently in 2008. I'm passionate about teaching and most importantly about supporting language learners. I've taught lessons to students from all backgrounds, ages, and origins. My lessons are about discovering, having fun and ensuring of an equal teacher-student relationship.
Through working side-by-side with teachers, managers and advisors, through my travels, studies and through my work experience I’ve created my own idea of language learning training. My life successes, failures, and detours have provided me with a skill set needed for starting this teaching platform. I started Yes Please English project in 2019 and have been developing it as a hobby since.
