InterestsTechSports & FitnessTravel
I am an American who loves the outdoors, traveling, meeting new people, and learning. My full-time job is a Digital Advertiser (Programmatic Campaign Specialist). I have taught Chinese Students English and I had ran a podcast called the Speaking American English Podcast to help my students and anyone else stay interested in learning English!
Me as a Teacher
I am very laid back and patient. I understand that confidence is a huge part of learning a new language. So, the more relaxed you are the easier it is to speak the language. I can correct you verbally or via chat as we have our lessons. I specialize in advancing individuals from the b-1 levels to fluency.
My lessons & teaching style
I am not here to waste your time. If you don't have a structure you would like me to follow, I'd be happy to come up with one for you or create a PowerPoint for each lesson, where we can screen-share it and go over it. I can help with speaking, writing, and reading. I will take notes and correct your mistakes. If you want to just have general conversations, we can do that as well, I can help you sound more like a native than someone that is new at the language!
