About the tutor
Hi, I'm Jesse from Oregon, USA. I currently spend my time between California and Mexico City. In California, I specialize in coaching the American accent to actors from outside the US. In Mexico City, I have established myself as a sought-after teacher, serving its vast, diverse market of English learners. I have extensive travel and cross-cultural experiences and advanced Spanish fluency.
As an experienced English teacher, I can say with the highest degree of certainty that if you can perceive the real value of mastering your English language skills, whether for personal or professional reasons, you are already WELL ahead of the curve! In the corporate world, English proficiency can often be one of the biggest barriers limiting one's career advancement opportunities. I'm proud to be in your corner on your path to mastering the English language. Together we can meet and surpass your language goals, and by extension, your life goals. Set your sails and book a trial now!
I carry a CELTA certification and have experience teaching ages 3 to 60+ years. In addition to the Cambridge methodology I routinely employ, I supplement with a 21st Century Learning methodology rooted in the theoretical and the practical. This allows for customized, individualized learning plans and loads of real practice. Proficiency is the end game. Practice is the strategy.
In our sessions you can expect me to:
+make learning and engagement central to the plan.
+ensure that learning is organic, social, and collaborative.
+be highly attuned to your motivations, emotions, and frustrations.
+be sensitive to your learning style.
+be demanding and challenging without overwhelming.
+assess and evaluate in a manner consistent with your learning aims.
+emphasize feedback.
I also have a broad wealth of experience training students for success in their English proficiency exams such as the Cambridge Exams (IELTS, CPE, C2, C1, CAE, FCE, etc.), TOEFL, TOEIC, etc. These exams are often required for university graduation, master's program acceptance, studying, living, and working abroad, and career and academic advancement.
