What can you expect from me? 1. I’m here for YOUR needs. I’ll do the very best I can for you and what you want to achieve. 2. My goals are YOUR goals. I want to help you to get to the level you want to achieve. 3. This is a judgement free zone. You can say what you want to say, how you say it, and I’ll be there for you. I’m only here to help YOU. 4. I love questions. If there is something you want to know, I’m an “open book.” Nobody knows everything, so if I don’t know the answer, I will do my best to find it. I’m American, husband, and father of 4 beautiful daughters. Time with my family is my favorite time. I used to be an extrovert and now I’m an ambivert. Getting to know other people while teaching English is a great joy of mine. It is interesting for me to hear about what and why other people think the way they do. I’ll listen to and talk about anything. I’ve been blessed to experience many things in my 36 years on this earth so it is easy for me to discuss any subject. My family and I have been living in Kyiv, Ukraine since September of 2021. We believe staying here, supporting this country, and the people around us is the right thing to do. So as I continue learning Ukrainian, I know how speaking a different language feels! I’ve been teaching ESL online for over a year now. I conduct speaking clubs, 1 on 1 classes, and classes that are focused on specific subjects. General ESL for all ages, business English, medical English, legal English, technical English, conversational English, travel English, and ESP (English for Specific Purposes). I also have 6 years of experience with children that have ADD, ADHD, and dyslexia but that experience was in person. Through my experience as a teacher and in my other professions (interior and exterior home painter, mechanic, automobile service advisor, customer service expert, financial advisor, trader ((FOREX)), and interior remodelling) I have learned to be focused on the people I serve. I offer customised lessons that are tailored to your needs and goals. I have material for children and adults so I’ve got everything covered! My approach involves ensuring a solid understanding of the material and vocabulary. Then, I challenge the learners to apply it. Our first meeting will help me to understand your goals, needs, and skill level. I’ve been told that I have a unique ability for people to feel comfortable once they have met me. Let’s find out and see what happens when you schedule a lesson with me!
