Hempstead, NY English Lessons

I can teach essay composition, creative writing, and poetry. I have been writing and editing poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, and song lyrics seriously for over 10 years.

I teach my kids how to read and annotate texts. It is important to look up all unfamiliar words in the dictionary. And make outlines of chapters that are read read.

Whether it's for English as a second language or College level papers, English is nothing more than a few words with rules on how to put them together, then once you learn them, you can creatively arrange them together to even make beautiful works of literature. I will break down your problem areas and make sure you have a strong grasp on what needs improvement. I learn languages for fun, English being the second language I learned and became fluent in, so I can help non-natives more than most because I can relate to their mistakes and may even have learned their language. I also work as a Freelance Copywriter and I have two minors in creative writing and copy writing that I got when I was getting my BFA in Graphic Design, so if you want to write copy or write creatively I will be more than happy to help.

I teach English to the Russian-speakers. I hold a degree in teaching English, and will help you to improve your grammar, listening and speaking skills and enlarge your vocabulary.

I prefer to Teach using a Highly INTERACTIVE approach.

Almost EVERY time, I seem to be able to make an almost INSTANT “Connection” with KIDS! I EXPLAIN – SLOWLY, using EVERYDAY words and expressions that kids ALREADY know and USE EVERYDAY. I use COMMON objects in THEIR home, usually RIGHT IN FRONT of where the Student is SITTING – to EXPLAIN IDEAS. I use my HANDS to form SHAPES to create VISUAL examples of what I am explaining.

Sometimes it even works after only ONE session!

YES - I said ONE Session! - They "GET IT"!

Thanks! - Alan.

I have been teaching and tutoring ESL for many years now, both in the USA and even abroad. I scored a 5 on both my AP Language and AP Literature exams. Because I myself have studied several languages, I am able to relate to my students frustrations in learning a second language. This helps me be a compassionate teacher!

I have worked as an English teacher in Poland and an English translator and editor in Poland and in Germany. Advanced knowledge of English idioms, grammar, as well as other Germanic Languages.

I also have moderate knowledge of other English dialects.

For children and adults - I am here to help! I am multilingual, so the classes can be taught in Russian, Armenian and in English. My method is simple, fun and easy. Let's have a talk about what your goals are - do you want English for school, work or personal matters? Not so good at grammar, NO PROBLEM! I am doing my best to leave you with no or little homework to do, that's why the classes will contain a lot of information. Looking forward to some fun and priceless knowledge!
