I thrive in teaching conversational English. Being able to bring student's interests into the conversation makes them more fun, as well as being a rewarding experience.

I have helped learners learn about different formal types of speaking, job-specific language, and how to formulate a business email.

I have experience teaching children and adults who are just getting their start with English. This has ranged from 3 year olds learning phonics to a group of 60+ year old adults just getting their first start.

As an American, I have especially had success in this area of teaching. I have been able to teach Korean and Japanese students, who are often looking to learn American English for both business and cultural reasons.

I have quite a lot of experience teaching high school kids that are preparing for the TOEFL test, so that they can achieve good scores on their college entrance exams or attend an English-speaking university. I have also acquired a TEFL certificate, which prepared me well to teach about this topic in particular.

I have taught many Korean, Japanese, and Chinese speakers who are learning English as their second language for various reasons. I feel very confident in teaching ESL, because of my experience. It has provided me with a lot of information and insights about how to teach it well.

I have acquired a TEFL certification. In addition, I have 7+ years of experience teaching English to people that are learning it for the first time. I am able to understand the difficulties of learning a foreign language, especially when English is not a language that is used in the learner's home country.

I have helped many Korean students prepare for the TOEIC. They are often preparing for this exam in order to be accepted to university. Because of this, I have learned about the test and how to teach good test-taking strategies for this test.

While my certification is in TEFL, the overlap between these categories is enormous, to the point that the same institution I got my TEFL certificate from can also provide TESOL certificates, with almost the same exact curriculum. My experience and TEFL certification means I am very confident in this subject area.
