    Thank you for checking out my profile! My name is Chris B. and I've taught English to people of all ages and ability levels for 15 years and K-12 school subjects for the last 10! Lessons with me are fun, engaging, and very useful. You will learn a lot of great skills and content from the very first day. My lessons are very visual in nature. I use a lot of images, videos, and graphic cues. They are also very interactive with the use of games, role-playing, and document collaboration on Google Drive.You will be amazed how quickly your English grows or your school subject skills improve! Come sign up for a lesson today! ****If you want a lesson with me as soon as tomorrow call takelessons.com customer service number 1-877-231-8505 and tell them to do that!***

    Chris identifies the strengths and needs of his students through an intial interview assessment. He then takes that data to create meaningful and engaging courses of study. Chris provides ample support in and outside of class time for his students.
