Tampa, Florida USA

Our intensive one-to-one English courses combine the advantages of a pleasant homestay with the benefits of a top quality English course.

Dialogue Angloscene Centre is a cosy American-style house located in a quiet, peaceful and secure location. On-site facillities include two swimming pools, jacuzzies and a modern fitness center.

Michael & Minoo Short welcome you to Dialogue-Angloscene Centre in TAMPA, Florida, USA.

Michael and Minoo each have over 25 years of experience in coaching people of different nationalities and professional backgrounds in English communication skills. Michael and Minoo are both licensed Life Coaches.

They also own and manage Dialogue Centre in Rye, England.

Minoo has a Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences. She also holds the Cambridge Teaching English as a Foreign Language Diploma (TEFL), qualifying her as an English teacher and teacher-trainer. Minoo has been Course Director at a number of English language schools in Asia and Europe. Her interests include foreign languages, social affairs, health and fitness.

After an exciting career in international political affairs, Michael became the Director of Studies in an English language school in Iran in 1980. Since then he has been mainly involved in directing English language programmes. He is widely travelled and his hobbies include information technology, science, aviation, astronomy and sailing.

Michael and Minoo have been organising intensive one-to-one English immersion courses since 1999, and you can trust their expertise to provide you with a tailor-made intensive English course with guaranteed results.


Your room is comfortable, with a walk-in closet and fully equipped with a desk, CD player/radio, television and DVD player, private bathroom (washbasin, shower, bath and toilet), and a ‘Wi-Fi’ connection to the Internet for your laptop.



We welcome a maximum of two or three students a week in Tampa. This is to ensure full personalisation also outside the lessons. The coaching team consists of Michael and Minoo as well as other qualified and experienced teachers with extensive training in our personalised and effective coaching method.

All lessons are one-to-one and tailored to your specific needs. They focus simultaneously on:

  • Improving precise aspects of the language (comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation…)
  • Improving oral or written communication skills in a specific field (banking, insurance, environment, business...)

I spent two weeks in Rye and I think that was the right length for this kind of training. The main advantages of this course are the all-day contact with your teachers and the chance to be totally immersed in the language. The place is in a quiet environment and it is very friendly. It does not offer too many distractions from your studies and it is very relaxing. The Angloscene course is also very personalised and offers you a set of “learning tools” you can use once back home. Just remember that what makes the difference is always your motivation.

I would sincerely like to thank you both very much. I have enjoyed my stay at your place and I have learnt a lot during this week. Many thanks for your delicious meals, which I can recommend to anyone. Your company during the meals was very pleasant. You gave me a lot of things to think about. Not to forget: thanks a lot for the special tour of Rye.

Thanks to your efficient method, I started making progress from the first day in my specific problem areas. Thank you for your patience and flexibility.

I can say that the whole experience was truly worthwhile. And, as Mike said: ‘Every ending is the start of a new beginning!’. It was a pleasure to meet you both, and once again, many thanks.

I would like to express my appreciation again for your lessons and hospitality during my stay in Rye. I believe that one to one lessons are the best way to learn English quickly and properly. Thanks to your system, I could learn exactly what I wanted. It is almost an endless road to learn a language but my experience in Rye was absolutely one of the biggest gains and steps on my way to the mastery of the English language.

If somebody reads these lines and is interested in some personal comments then I would like to point out the following: the teaching concept was brilliant, I made a lot of progress within just one week.

Especially my problem of managing the rules of grammar was perfectly solved by an easily understandable explanation. The teachers did a very good job and my expectations were more than fulfilled.

The English-Training took place in a very pleasant environment, perfect accommodation with always terrific meals and with very warm and open hosts. If somebody is going to combine the language training with some sports, cycling and running are recommended – it is a beautiful region.

I am going to come back for sure. Hopefully at the end of this year. Many thanks to Minoo and Michael.

"It was an exceptional experience. I had the opportunity to experience an excellent new method of learning a language. Yes, I had tried other courses that ended when they finished. The Dialogue-Angloscene one is completely different because the teachers show you a method to improve your listening and speaking English and not only during the course. They tried to give me the self-confidence to lose my shyness with the English language."
