Ik als leerkracht
I have published three academic books and twenty articles. Since 2015, I help international students get into the best colleges and universities in the United States as an education consultant. I am married with three children and love teaching to young students from all over the world. I have prepared students for TOEFL and IELTS. I have also offered workshops and lectures on presentation delivery and negotiation for business English for professionals like managers, doctors and lawyers. I can provide all the tips of doing an academic presentation at conferences and other academic settings.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I provide the highest academic standards and professionalism to all my students. First, I assess the level and needs of my student and agree on an action plan to reach his goals. Second, I provide all kinds of material and exercise to accomplish the customized goals for each student. Third, I coach my student at every step to ensure customer satisfaction in every respect. Despite my long academic career and experience, I know that there is always more to learn and I am open to any suggestions from my students to improve myself and the learning experience for my students. Language learning and teaching is all about enjoying the process to ensure success!

Matt has helped me enormously. I am a lawyer from Russia who intended to apply into US university. We worked together to increase my TOEFL scores. With Matt, I spent just 3 months to get 88 points (it was 60 in the beginning). Then, we worked on my Statement of Purposes for Syracuse Law School. In the end, I have got 50% scholarship while I followed Matt's advices

Dr. Matt is a very professional teacher. My kid has made a big progress under his teaching during the past four months. He always prepared a lot before each lesson and gave very detailed comments and advice for her homework. We feel very lucky and grateful to meet him.

Dr. Matt is an excellent academic guide. It was my first lesson with him but I already knew he was the right teacher for me since when I saw his profile for the first time. I highly recommend him if you want to improve your research and academic writing skills. He is very positive and passionate about explaining you everything you need to know.

Sehr gut. And what I learned from the trial class is more than what I had learned in 2nd semester of my master degree’s study. I will strongly recommend Dr. Matt to whose want to continue studying in academic areas.
