* Taught oral English in Shenzhen, China! Can help you have GOOD PRONUNCIATION and speak with CONFIDENCE!
* For beginners, I can provide SUPPLEMENTAL oral English classes (new vocabulary and grammar is not the main focus - please use your own textbook, another teacher, etc.).
* For advanced learners, I can challenge you with: 1) Debates 2) Situational practice (negotiating with a business partner, pretending to be a salesperson, etc.) 3) Discussions of science, technology, and other topics!
* 我可以说一点点中文！ 我可以使用中文来解释一些简单的概念。
Sorry, I do not know much about the IELTS or TOEFL.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Can help learners of all levels! Beginners, intermediate, advanced, experts, etc. Note: For beginners, I offer SUPPLEMENTAL ORAL ENGLISH CLASSES ONLY. New vocabulary and new grammar is NOT the main focus. Speaking practice is the main focus.
* Pronunciation practice! I know some tricks to help you improve your pronunciation.
* Fun, visual material! For beginners, we can look at images of animals, or videos of videogame gameplay, etc. and talk about what we see.

I want both of us to feel ALIVE during each class! Kind of like an adventure.
For beginners, I want you to be comfortable interacting with a native speaker. Through these lessons, I hope to improve your listening and speaking skills. New vocabulary and grammar are NOT the main focus of these lessons - these are SUPPLEMENTAL lessons ONLY.
For advanced speakers (usually adults), I want you to be able to take all of the knowledge you have accumulated over your years of learning and combine it into meaningful conversations and activities! We can talk about US culture, science, your hobbies, etc.
I normally do not rely on a specific textbook. Instead, I normally like to find worksheets, web pages, etc. that may be useful to you.
I started out teaching English to elementary school students in Shenzhen, China. We would try to have fun games and activities, such as acting out scenarios, or a "rock paper scissors" competition.
