English Tutor Living in El Granada, Half Moon Bay

I am a jovial, extremely patient, old-school Englishman with a good sense of humor and a love of imparting knowledge. I am much traveled, well-read and adore literature and the visual arts. I have taught in universities and schools throughout the world.

I have a master's in English literature. While teaching in Thailand, I was made professor of literature. I can teach reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary as well as essay writing and English as a second language.

I believe that learning can only be successful if lessons are engaging and fun.

I look forward to working with you.
