Tutor Information
About
Since 2018, I have tutored English to university students, graduate students, business professionals from all over the world.
In addition to English practice, my primary work involves proofreading and editing content that my students ask me to review for them.
Message me to receive a free 15-minute trial session to discuss your fluency goals, and how I may help you reach them. If you are interested in my proofreading and editing services, message me for that as well.
Each student has a different learning style, and my work is uniquely based on each student's particular learning needs and goals. A student preparing to give a presentation at work or university has different goals than someone who wants to learn English for international travel. Others want to work on sentence structure, pronunciation, and learning new vocabulary.
Likewise, the proofreading and editing work I perform is focused on each client's needs, 'voice', style, and intended audience. ESL writers have specific needs in their writing. I review all corrections made, and make suggestions for improvement. I also use our review time as a tutoring support, as English writing requires a different approach than English speaking does.
Some find writing in English easier, while others try very hard to avoid it! Practicing English writing, reading, and speaking "exercises" your brain's "muscles" in different ways. It is easy to prefer the method you're most comfortable with -- but that is not how we grow our "muscles" and improve in other areas of English fluency.
