👨🎓I've taught in an international school, English academies (학원), adult education programs, and now online. 👨🎓
🏆 Teaching online has allowed me to meet students from around the world. My mission is to make the world more connected through language.🏆
🗨I speak Spanish, basic Korean, and I am studying Mandarin. We can discuss differences between English and your native language.🗨
🌎 I hold a degree in philosophy and English Literature, and a masters degree in Applied Linguistics. 🌎Me as a Teacher
I have three goals as a teacher. The first is to help you reach your goals. One of the first things we will do together is establish your objectives as a learner, and come up with a plan as to how we will meet them.
My second goal is to make you feel more confident speaking English. I always bring positive, supportive energy into the classroom with me. I ask many leading questions that encourage you to communicate in a meaningful way, while providing feedback and corrections in a supportive way.
My third goal is to motivate you to learn on your own. I do that with real world materials that match your interests, and suggesting learning strategies you can use to learn independently today.My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is informed by research. Our regular classes will start with a menu where you can choose from a variety of tasks chosen just for you. These tasks could include articles, books, games, conversation prompts, or presentation style lessons for us to work through together. The materials I use match your needs--whether it be pronunciation, test preparation, grammar for general purposes, or interesting conversation prompts to get you speaking and feeling more confident. I will also encourage you to use time outside of class to learn on your own, and I'm happy to give you suggestions on the most effective study methods to meet your personal needs.My teaching material

We have very interesting and funny conversations with Tyler. He notices my interests and suggests related topics. Tyler is very patient. He is always waiting for me to finish formulating my thoughts. Also he always challenges me. I will definitely continue taking more classes with him. Thank you very much!

Learning with Tyler is always enjoyable!! He is super good at encouraging you and making you feel relaxed and confident while speaking!!! :)
Also, I’ve learned a lot of new expressions, and the instruction for the test was indeed helpful!!! It always surprises me that he has so many teaching materials (and funny filters). ☺️
And I love the feedback that he sends each time after class, which motivates me to learn English and consider studying a fun thing to do.
In short, Tyler is a wonderful teacher!!! Thank you so much!!!

I've had the extraordinary privilege of studying with Tyler, and I can unequivocally say his is a teacher in the truest sense of the word. His approach transcends the conventional, he is a mentor, as he genuinely cares about his students at a human level.
I am incredibly grateful for his guidance and support. This is not simply a language course; it's an enriching intellectual journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Tyler to anyone seeking a truly different language learning experience.
