    Learn English with internationally experienced EFL Teacher

    My lessons are always very interactive! You will not just sit and listen to me! If you don't talk -- a lot -- I didn't do my job and you can fire me! Accent reduction and pronunciation are strength areas, especially with Asian languages. Strong skills with business professionals, especially in the high tech industry. We will work on the things that matter to you! Writing, Small Talk, Pronunciation, Vocabulary and maybe some Grammar. Let's have some fun, do some work and expand your English!

    I love teaching! I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Education and have been teaching ESL online to business professionals around the world; particularly in the high-tech field. I have taught English internationally in China, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kurdistan and Mozambique for more than 15 years. I love to teach adults. I also really enjoy teaching reading or writing with students at all ages. Over the last two years, I have taught a lot of pronunciation / accent reduction for my freelancing employer, as well as private students. I'm very flexible and understand that you want to work on your own goals. I guarantee you will make lifelong progress when you work with me. I have also provided quite a bit of instruction to help non-native English speakers edit their own writing. They're great writers, but may still have some awkward ways of putting sentences together. I can help with that! My students feel proud and satisfied when we are finished editing. You are welcome to ask me for references. My past and present students are happy to work with me and feel confident to let me know what they want to work on and what changes to make if needed. We have a lot of fun together; I'm able to capture what they've said so we can work on real-time sentence, vocab and pronunciation improvement. I'm not like the other teachers -- I'm flexible, connected with my students, and willing to try new things. We'll have fun together in every class as you learn new vocabulary, sentence structures, and pronunciation to practice. Let's give it a try!

    Lori is a fantastic teacher with a wealth of experience in accent reduction. I have so far had 8 classes with her and in this time I have gotten much more aware of the different sounds and how I need to retrain myself to pronounce them correctly. I cannot recommend her enough!

    I earned my Master's degree with a focus on English and Adult Education while teaching ABE/GED. My project involved teaching three GED students to design personal web-pages telling their story. They were each successful in completing their high school diploma equivalents and one even went on to become a web-page designer at a major manufacturing plant.
