I am originally from England but currently live in Taiwan.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I’m very friendly and approachable. I love discussing a wide range of subjects, exploring interesting things and learning together. I enjoy meeting new students and building genuine friendships. I enjoy teaching, writing, reading, travelling and connecting with new people from different cultures.
I don't always open my calendar because of other work and projects but please reach out and I can try to arrange a time to suit you.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I teach students through free-talk style lessons.
We can explore your interests through discussion, reading and researching materials in English. We can look at news, short stories, poetry, creative nonfiction essays, music and more! This will help you to build wide ranging and complex vocabulary whilst focusing on interesting and broad subjects.
I also offer friendly feedback on student's creative writing and essays.
Fascinating. We talked about my experience about 88 temples pilgrimage in Shikoku and transmission of Buddhism in ancient India through China to Japan. It is connected to the story of Midnight’s Children. The next chapter is Sam and Tiger.

Fantastic. We talked about the second half of the chapter ‘in the Sanderbans’ of Midnight’s Children. The setting was Bangladesh liberation war. Rushdie absorbed the historical event into his created narrative miraculously. Amazing.

Fabulous. We talked about the next chapter ‘ in the Sunderbans’ of Midnight’s children by Salman Rushdie. The protagonist and three young soldiers entered into the jungle and lost in it. Overwhelming story. Thanks!

Excellent! We talked about the second half of the chapter called ‘Buddha’ of midnight’s children by Salman Rushdie. The historical background is Independence of Bangladesh. What a fascinating story. The next chapter is ‘in the Sundarbans’. I can’t wait.
