Academic and Business English

À propos du professeur

I am a native English speaker from Canada. I have a Master’s degree and I am CELTA certified.

I have worked in Canada, USA, Uganda and the Philippines. I was a Corporate Trainer with the British Council. I also taught ESL at an international school to students in every grade (senior kindergarten to senior high school). I taught English online, and worked with business professionals as an educator for a British Council online MOOC course.

I now live in China, teaching Academic English (reading, writing, literature and phonics) to children and youth.

I help people achieve their conversational, academic and business English language learning goals. As language is more than just oral English, I also prepare my students for their interviews and presentations, and help them with writing, editing and proofreading resumes, academic essays, school applications, and business communication materials (websites, menus, public signage, brochures etc.).

How can I help you achieve your goals?
