Hello English Learner! I look forward to meeting you soon, but first, please look at my course descriptions to see which class is best for you. I specialize in English classes for intermediate to advanced students who want to improve their speaking and/or writing skills. I am a published author with a bachelor’s degree in English, a TESOL teaching certificate, and 20+ years of teaching and business experience.
My ENGLISH WRITING, CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH, and TEST PREPARATION classes are each individually tailored to YOU, whether that means we focus on grammar, vocabulary, fluency, etc. YOU let me know what you would like to work on, and I will do my best to help you reach your goalsMy lessons & teaching style
ALL of my classes use a structured yet individualized and encouraging format that focuses on the areas that YOU most need to address to reach your English GOALS as quickly as possible.
This could include expanding your vocabulary through guided article discussions, enhancing your professional writing through the revision of business emails, or perfecting your speaking and writing answers with proven strategies that have helped my TOEFL and IELTS students score 100+ and 7+, respectively.
Again, let me know what you most want to achieve, and we will devise an individualized plan to get you there!My teaching material
