✨Hello, everyone. My name's Jeffrey. I attended college in California and was first majored in English Literature. Spanish was my second major which I’ve been speaking for 6 years with a level of C1. I'd lived in America for almost 10 years(both in California and Oregon). I also speak Mandarin Chinese. I've been to Canada and Mexico too
✨So what I can provide for you is more than the language itself. My working and living experience in the U.S.A. can definitely make my teaching more effective.
✨I am also the father of a baby boy who is learning English with me everyday. I can feel how important it is to teach children English at early age, which can benefit them tremendously in the future.
Me as a Teacher
I have more than 4 years of tutoring experience in teaching children over age 6 English in an international school. My students come from all over the world with various backgrounds and language levels.
What I do is more than just teaching in the classroom. I keep records of the students' performance and always keep their parents updated. Since I speak Chinese, I'm also familiar with "Chinglish"(中式英文) which many Chinese students may have.
