About the tutor
The purpose of language is to exchange ideas and information, whether it be about basketball or business. I have helped many young adults and professionals improve their communication skills, for fun, for work, and for English tests. I have taught in China and online, from my home in Canada. I think classes should be student-centered and riotously active. The first thing we will do, after a friendly greeting, of course, is to do a complete placement test, to determine your skills level in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Then we will use the results of this work to design a lesson plan that will address areas where you need help. You will quickly gain the skills and confidence to speak English well.
