Hello! My name is Peter. I grew up in Boston, USA, and I have been living in Asia as an English educator for the last ten years. I have a great deal of experience teaching various levels of expertise (A1-C1) and ages—everyone from kindergarten to mid career professionals. I'm patient, dedicated, and thoroughly knowledgeable about the many different aspects of mastering the English language. Let's work together to improve your English. I think it will be fun!
Me as a Teacher
Currently I teach at a university in China. I help my students prepare for exams such as IELTS, TOEFL, and SAT. I've also coached many students in both speaking and writing competitions with great results including multiple national first prizes. Online I work with a wide variety of students of various ages and backgrounds from all over the world. I bring a wealth of experience that you can benefit from!My lessons & teaching style
I strongly believe you'll find that my personal teaching style is characterized by a great deal of patience, empathy and good listening skills. I also speak with a highly standard American accent, so you'll have little difficult understanding my speech.
Important: IF YOU DON'T SEE A SCHEDULE TIME THAT WORKS FOR YOU, feel free to send me a message: I'll do my best to arrange a customized time that fits your needs.My teaching material
