I'm from the United States but have lived in many different countries. In February 2016, I began teaching English and traveling. Since then, I've taught over 12,000 online lessons and worked in classrooms in China and South Korea. There are much better ways to learn languages than those typically taught in schools and I've helped many people find the techniques that work for them.Me as a Teacher
* Focus on YOUR goals and interests
* Customized homework and extra materials
* A variety of class activities, based on your preferencesMy lessons & teaching style
I like to set long-term and short-term goals. These help you keep track of your progress and make it easier to reach your desired skills. If you’re unsure of your goals, I can help you establish them. They can be as small or big as you'd like. If your goals change, let me know!
In class, some people excel by playing games in their target language or role-playing, but others don't. I want to do what works best for you.
For all learners, I want you to participate and use English as much as possible, but I will always help you when you need help. I can provide prompts or sentence frames, depending on your level. I also take notes to give you feedback and help you improve.My teaching material
