Su di me

Hello there! Greetings from Chicago, USA!

If you seek to elevate your English language skills, let’s work together. Whether you are preparing for a standardized test, an important meeting, interview, public-speaking engagement, or presentation, let me help you bring out the best in yourself.

With decades of professional experience across a wide spectrum of disciplines, combined with over 10 years' English teaching and training experience, I am equipped with skills, experience, and energy to help YOU.

While a serious professional, with extensive experience teaching in the academic, legal, military, and petrochemical sectors, my true joy is meeting and helping others, and having fun! Semi-retired, with a wealth of useful education and interesting experience to share, my teaching style relies heavily on project and task-completion, so the emphasis is always on YOU---YOUR speaking skills; YOUR writing skills; YOUR needs…

Everyone knows that language learning requires regular practice. "If we don't use it, we lose it..."

Practice however, does not have to be boring or give you headaches. Practice can be effective and interesting---if you work with someone dedicated to your progress--someone willing to listen to you, and able to design exercises just for you. This is the best way to acquire language skills and confidence.

Every adventure needs a first step, and every relationship starts with getting to know each other. So don’t waste time. Book your next class with me, and let’s take an English adventure together!
