I've been teaching English since 1995. In addition to teaching for 12 years in US universities, I also have taught English for 17 years in Japan, working with all ages, from 6 month-old infants and their mothers, to retirees. My students have studied English for a variety of motives: personal enrichment, travel, educational and test-taking, and professional, including mechanical and computer engineers and researchers publishing their work in English-language journals. I want my experience, knowledge, and communication ability to help you meet your goals.
