"Setting your children on the path of lifelong learning."

My formal teaching experience includes teaching primary school English for a year when I was in junior college and teaching speech and drama to secondary schools. I currently have two students learning English from me. I also have working experiences in the communications, editorial, education, and performing arts industries. As such, I believe I have the right skill sets to help students to improve their English and writing skills. Furthermore, my training in philosophy would be especially useful for those who need more help in argumentative writing.  My main goal is not merely to help the student score well in their exams, but to develop a certain love of language which will help them in the long run. I believe that tailoring one's lessons to merely do well for the next test is myopic, and the lessons will be quickly forgotten. But once someone has an interest in how language works, regardless of how weak they are, they would be self-motivated to improve.
