Nov 2007 - Present
English conversation, English grammar, English Second Language, Writing, SAT test preparation (verbal and writing)
Since returning home from Japan, I have started teaching English online. I worked with schools like TutorABC (in China) and Aloud English (in Korea). Now, I am teaching on my own using online tools like Skype and WiZiQ. My specialty is English converssation and grammar. I know all those pesky grammar rules backwards and forwards! I'm very casual and flexible, yet very serious about helping you learn. I'll talk with you to find out exactly what you want to work on, and create lessons just for you.

Living and working in Japan was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I taught English as a Second Language to all skill levels and age groups. I taught businessmen, housewives, university students, high school and elementary students and everyone in between! I taught beginners up through advanced students.
