English Lessons in Mill Valley. Amazing Teachers.

I am a certified TEFL instructor & I've taught English online for over 2400+ Hours & have taught over 7000 online lessons. Business English is my specialty, and I have over 16 years as a Corporate Manager with experience in the US and Canada working for Fortune 500 Companies and have conducted thousands of interviews in my career. I will always be a life-long student of business and economics.

I work primarily with business professionals, undergraduate university, and graduate students who need to improve their American English accent, vocabulary and daily conversational English. Many of my students work for Fortune 500 companies like Samsung, PwC, Google, Facebook, Amazon, E&Y to name a few. I am specialized in assisting those who are looking to work abroad for international companies or who live in or are planning to move to the United States or Canada.

English as Second Language (ESL) para iniciantes que falam português.

I have been a professor for 10 years, specializing in Psychology/Research Writing. I have worked both at the college level, as well as, the K-12 level. My goal is to inspire students in how to both speak and write correctly, while they are having fun.
Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student. I find in many cases students become indirectly inspired in many other areas, such as; Psychology, Criminal Justice, Fashion, Marketing and Theater Arts.
Having the ability to read/write can lead to success in many areas,

Detailed, fun and engaging lessons on harnessing the English language. Whether refining grammar, building vocab, gaining language survival skills, or perfecting professional terms and structure for speaking and writing, you will take your English skills to new levels and beyond. Use of magazines, various publications, flash cards, workbooks and lots of conversational exchanges!

I have tutored multiple students in grammar and spelling from young beginners to older students working on comprehension and ESL. Generally, I work with students on their current homework, but also use the Spectrum books found at your local Barnes and Noble for extra help. For older students, we will also work with real world examples and I'll give assignments.

I started my teaching career when I was a college student. In Japan, I taught both English and Japanese to middle and high school students at a private academy.
I have also taught Japanese and English to adults especially the spouses stationed in Japan and also American community college. I have a Master of Education in TESL; therefore, I’ve taught English more vigorously, but know what it takes to be successful at second language acquisition. I really find it rewarding to teach those who are interested in a foreign language and culture.

I like to get to know your learning styles and what motivates you. I will cater to your needs and make your own lesson plan just for you.

I’ve taught both children and adults and depending on how they learn and what they need to improve on, I’ve used different books and activities. Feel free to let me know what you are looking for!
