::ABOUT ME:: *TESOL certified, MBA/finance degree-holding native speaker *7+ years' experience teaching conversational English, business English, grammar, and more Hello and welcome to my profile. I'm from Los Angeles, California in the US. I currently live in Taiwan where I've been for the last few years, learning Mandarin Chinese, acquiring my Masters in Business Administration, working in different industries, and where I've also taught English for over seven years. I love language learning and teaching! My hobbies are competitive cycling, hiking, running, and pretty much just enjoying the outdoors, especially on a sunny day with blue skies. I am currently offering only conversational lessons using publicly available online resources (other courses may be offered in the future, see below). ::COURSE FEATURES:: **The student will learn new vocabulary, read a short article containing that vocabulary, and then have a chance to discuss the article, ask questions, practice using the new vocabulary, and also practice areas which the teacher identifies as needing some practice/drilling. **I will provide full lesson notes for the student's records and for the all-important review component of English learning. **This course is perfect for students who want to improve their fluency while also learning some new things and refining what they already know. ------ I don't currently specifically teach other courses but in the future I may offer courses in grammar, business, test taking such as TOEFL and IELTS. I do this using a variety of tools and materials, including a wide range of resources I have which allow me to teach using PowerPoint-style presentations, with interactive whiteboard. ::TEACHING BACKGROUND:: I have about seven years of experience Teaching conversational English, have two years of Experience editing dissertations and academic journals for professors, and have also taught children.
