-=【 About Me 】=- 🎓 I am a retired University English teacher with 15 years experience, teaching classes on grammar, speaking, listening, reading, writing, and public speaking. I also have many years of experience teaching professionals privately. 🎓 I'm a native English speaker with a standard American accent. I've lived in Spain, England, and South Korea, and know how to speak easily with people from all over the world. -=【 Adult Conversation 】=- 💫 I teach adults for business, interviews, public speaking, travel, or just general conversation. I have a diverse academic background, and can confidently discuss a variety of topics such as current events, finance, trends in technology, the sciences, the arts and humanities, history, and philsophy. 💫 I use guided conversations to grow your speaking skills in topics that interest YOU, so you can practice expressing yourself clearly and confidently. 💫 Speaking a language is like playing a sport -- you can't just learn the rules and watch others play! You need a good coach and regular practice. Just do it! -=【 Success 】=- ❤️ My students love my teaching style -- read their reviews! I create a positive, fun, and engaging class that makes them want to keep talking and improving! ❤️ I've studied French, Spanish, German, and Korean. So I know the challenges of studying a foreign language! -=【 Trial Class 】=- ❓ Why are you studying English ❓ Your current level and needs ❓ Decide if you like my style!

    I absolutely love my English lessons! 🙌 Every class is a chance to face my fears head-on. Seriously, each topic my teacher brings up is like a golden opportunity to mix feelings, thoughts, and emotions all at once, and express them in English! 💭✨ It’s not just about learning words, it’s about actually speaking from the heart. That’s the barrier I want to break, and I truly believe it’s the key to reaching the fluency I’m aiming for. If you’re looking for a class where you get to feel challenged and excited at the same time, this is it! Thank you so much for the opportunity to grow! 🙏🔥

    I enjoyed talking with Professor Jim. I was afraid of speaking English in my life. We chatted online and share interesting things, exchanged different perspectives on diverse topic. I start being confident to speak English and express my mind. Nice teacher and nice talker! Thank you so much🙏🏻
