Experience
Originally from the UK, I have taught ESL in schools and colleges in the US for twenty years. As an educator, I am totally passionate about helping my students to achieve their professional and academic goals. When I tutor, I analyze each student's specific needs and then provide materials that directly address his/her learning issues and expressed goals. In this way, I have had the pleasure of helping hundreds of students over the years to pass examinations, obtain work promotions, and communicate more effectively in English. Whether your goals are to speak more confidently, write an academic research paper, or prepare to take the TOEFL or IELTS examinations, I will be happy to assist you. I also specialize in Business English and editing for those students who hope to build their careers and professional opportunities. I have taught over 90,000 hours of English grammar in my teaching career. At the College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas, I have taught all aspects of ESL to students who have moved here from every continent of the world. My promise to all my students is that I will do my very best to help you. I will work with you in a manner that is supportive and non-threatening, and I will always create a positive learning environment. I also set practice activities to be done outside of class that are designed to maximize your learning experience and the effectiveness of your classes.
