Your turn…
What have you been up to?
What have you been up to?
Lost a word?
Pause. Describe. Keep going.
Pause. Describe. Keep going.
Sound familiar?
You understand the conversation. Then everyone looks at you… and the words disappear.
That doesn’t mean your English is bad. It usually means you have spent far more time learning English than using it.
The Conversation Lab closes that gap—one real conversation at a time.
The Conversation Lab method
Learn it. Say it. Hear the difference.
No long lectures and no memorised perfect answer. Each practice loop helps you understand the conversation, make it your own and improve something you can actually hear.
Build your version
Use the same conversation shape, but change the words so the answer sounds like you.
Speak & record
Talk to MiniJai, keep going when you wobble and record the complete conversation.
Improve & repeat
Listen back, change one useful thing and have another go. That is where progress becomes obvious.
You don’t need perfect English to have a good conversation.
A clear way forward
Ten steps from “erm…” to a real conversation.
Every stage adds one practical skill. You are never asked to do everything at once, and every new skill has a clear job in the final conversation.

Hello, I’m Jaison
I teach the English between knowing and actually speaking.
I’m an English fluency coach from England. I work with capable adults who understand plenty of English but become hesitant when the conversation is real.
We keep things relaxed, practise one useful skill at a time and focus on progress you can hear—not sounding perfect.

What My Students Say
A few lovely comments from students who have worked with me on Preply.
Jaison is one of the best English teachers I've ever met. He is extremely professional and knows how to help you improve your English. He also creates a friendly and relaxing atmosphere in class.
Since we started, my English has gotten so much better. He uses a really unique teaching style that keeps things interesting. He is incredibly patient and genuinely friendly. Our lessons never feel stressful.
After every lesson I feel really good and with each lesson I gain more and more confidence. I am very happy that I chose Jaison as my teacher.
