Reading and Writing are What I Love And Teach!
I am a passionate logophile, who loves nothing better than to discuss and teach grammar and literature with people. Learning parts of speech, sentence structure, and composition techniques doesn't have to be a stressful undertaking! I can remove the panic and frustration from your battle with words and turn your studies into an interesting, if not fascinating journey of discovering the power of writing. When I'm not scribbling down story ideas or reading countless books, I enjoy playing mandolin or hanging out with my Muscovy ducks. I enjoy teaching grammar, English, ESL, literature, as well as other related subjects for grades K-12. Please note! I will not accept requests for assignment help where a student asks me to write his or her entire essay, response to literature, or any other written work. I will write alongside or do revision/ final draft work on students' projects. However, to give a pupil a finished product that came 100% from my pen only is professionally and ethically wrong in my viewpoint. I am a teacher and peer reviewer, not a writer for hire or an accomplice to plagiarism. Thanks!

English Tutor/ESL(EFL) Tutor/Accent Coach
I teach English the Oxford way, but I can provide insight into both American and British English. I am a no nonsense teacher. I will not waste my time or yours, or your MONEY, I will get straight to the goal in mind. Suitable for students/parents of students who demand results and value for their hard earned money. I have worked as an ESL instructor with students from all age groups and a variety of different classes, from all-boys/girls to co-ed and from beginner (A1) to upper intermediate (B2). As a tutor I have engaged in more intense teaching methods, as my students were more result oriented, demanding my round the clock guidance and supervision. I teach English (ESL/EFL) as 5 skills (the 5th being Cultural Awareness) as opposed to the traditional 4 skills (Reading, Writing, Speaking & Listening), so you can rest assured knowing you'll be learning an English that isn't outdated, old fashioned and archaic. If you're looking to prep for IELTS/TOEFL/GMAT/SAT, then I'm detail-oriented tutor you're looking for, I'll prep you like you've never been prepped before, ready to knock the test out! 😁 If you're an actor or just looking to reduce your accent then I'm tutor you need, with a diverse academic background in Phonology & Linguistics, and a keen ear, I'll be able to get speaking with any accent you wish.

Teacher Records
I am a friendly and energetic individual.
I am a qualified ESL teacher who holds a TEFL certification. I would describe my teaching style as interactive, supportive and creative. I tailor each of my lessons to ensure that I meet each of my student's individual needs. I have years of experience as an online teacher and I believe that my students still choose me as their online teacher because I focus on their individual needs as well as ensure that I work with them at their own pace. By the time we wrap up each lesson, you'll be walking out the door with newfound knowledge and a whole lot of confidence
