5+ years teaching academic English at the university level 7+ years teaching ESL 10+ years teaching and tutoring - Designed a four-semester academic IELTS speaking and writing course. - Edited students' academic articles for publication in international journals. - Prepared students for professional presentations at international conferences. - Assisted students with interview skills and resume/cover letter writing. My main strength as a teacher is that I treat each student as an individual. In the first lesson, we will: - Discuss your learning goals - Determine where you are now - Discover how you best learn - Develop a plan for reaching your goals I have a very flexible schedule. Please feel free to ask about alternate times. I also am comfortable completing some work outside of class. For example, if you are preparing written work, I can review and edit it before class, and then meet to discuss it.
