You don’t know how well-liked and popular you are Help! We all have a burning desire that you could also give the PC class on Wed as scheduled as well as the IELTS class because you don’t know how well-liked and popular you are among the students. Also, my colleagues strongly insist you have the ESSD class for the trail students this Sunday morning. You see, they are so confident about you. Indeed, you are a great teacher and a very kind person. I love you so much. (Xiao Zheng, China)

On a scale of 1-10, I will like to give you 11. Words failed me to convey my gratitude. You are so thoughtful and caring that you even help me to find out a way to let Oxford get my score in time! On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the highest, I will like to give you 11. The additional 1 for your kind consideration and your comfort! You are really a good teacher, because you always encourage your students to talk rather than you talk by yourself. You make full use of our class time, and I can see you do prepare for our class. I can never thank you enough! Thank you again! (Jane Cui, China)

Our program is designed for busy people just like you

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have lived and worked in Malaysia and Cyprus; traveled to Singapore, Thailand, Egypt, Israel, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, England, France, Belgium, Switzerland and Germany so I understand the challenges you face when learning a new language.

I have a love for people of other cultures and a sincere desire to empower you to succeed in your chosen path, so this is a perfect job for me! I have students on every continent of the world, even in remote parts of Nepal and Africa!

I have an established online ESL business, teaching intermediate and advanced adults over the internet, using a combination of Skype, and virtual classroom software.

I design curriculum and teach Conversational English, Business English and Tourism English and prepare students for the speaking portion of the IELTS and TOEFL tests. I teach teachers going through an online TEFL course. For more information, click here

I live in Huntsville, Ontario, in one of the most beautiful parts of Canada, surrounded by lakes, forests and rocks. See pictures here. When I look out my window, I often see deer in my backyard!

I love being out in nature, and I love going on adventures including camping, canoeing, kayaking, rappelling and on my last birthday, I even went skydiving! In my spare time I like to read, do yoga and aquafit, participate in community cooking classes and teach circle dance. I am also a very active member of the Bahá’í Faith.

A great conversation teacher I had my IELTS test on Saturday and tried hard to do my best to answer the conversation questions. Although I felt a little nervous and made many mistakes, I kept speaking and said as much as I could. I think I did better than the last time so I’m still very happy. Thank you very much!! I am so glad that I had a chance to meet such a great conversation teacher. That’s the most wonderful thing in my life. Thanks for your help and I look forward to talking with you as soon as possible. (Cari Kao, Taiwan)
