About Jason T.

4.9
(95)
I bring over 18 years of expertise as a seasoned ESL professional, specializing in English/English as a Second Language education. Holding a TEFL certification alongside a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from Florida State University, I commenced my teaching journey in Kathmandu, Nepal in 2007. Subsequently, I expanded my teaching portfolio in Thailand, encompassing provincial schools, international institutions, and universities. My evolution in education led me to the realm of online teaching, where I had the privilege of instructing students worldwide, spanning various ages and proficiency levels. From nurturing young minds in Kindergarten to guiding aspiring scholars in universities, and catering to the English needs of business professionals, my pedagogy embraced diverse learners. As an Academic Director, I engineered dynamic, engaging, and interactive lesson plans, ensuring sustained student involvement. Throughout my tenure, I've adeptly tutored students of all proficiency levels, adeptly tailoring lessons to meet individual learning requisites. Whether bolstering grammar skills or fostering fluent conversational abilities for travel, I adeptly customize lessons. Should your aspirations involve honing business English, perfecting pronunciation, acing TOEIC/IELTS tests, or engaging in discussions on current affairs, your sessions will be meticulously crafted to match your learning objectives. Expect vibrant and spirited classes, where learning becomes an enjoyable endeavor rather than a mere task.
