Introduction

SpeaksEnglish, Chinese

Hello! My name is Serena, I was raised in Taiwan but am currently studying at the University of British Columbia. I scored 980 on my TOEIC the summer before the tenth grade and achieved 8.5 IELTS(Listening:9 Speaking 8.5 Reading:9 Writing 7.5) and SAT 1370 before I even graduated from high school. I have attended two international MUNs and three MUNs in Taiwan. Taipei MUN 2016 - Best Position Paper Award TPCMUN 2018 - Deputy Under Secretary of Academics I have been speaking English my entire life and I believe that learning English is not just about learning a language, it is about living and experiencing an entirely different culture. Practicing English does not have to be boring or tiresome. Learning English can be fun if you just figure out the right way. By building the right attitude and skills, learning English can be a breeze. My goal is to train you to the level where you can start advancing on your own, without having to pay money to learn English. - Learn English through your favourite pastime, no matter what it is - Step-by-step analysis of your favourite movies, books, TV shows, or even recipes - Fun and interactive teaching style that is tailored to suit you specifically - Conversations about what is going on in your life to incorporate English into your daily interactions with the world If you are interested in a more traditional method of learning English for TOEIC - Step-by-step analysis of the types of questions - Common mistakes you might face and how to avoid them - Practice your listening skills while developing useful conversational skills through real-life conversations

    It really works. I just need to read a few pages a day. That’s quite useful for me to get things easier than before.
