About Basil

Bio

I'm Basil, a University of South Florida graduate with a BA in English (Creative Writing) and a recent Level 5 TEFL certification. I've taught English in South Korea, China, and the US – working with university students, high schoolers, and adults.

My approach is patient and adaptable. Whether you need help with conversation, academic writing, or business English, I meet you where you are. I also bring a unique perspective from 10+ years in IT and cybersecurity, so I'm especially effective...

My approach is patient and adaptable. Whether you need help with conversation, academic writing, or business English, I meet you where you are. I also bring a unique perspective from 10+ years in IT and cybersecurity, so I'm especially effective with professionals in technical fields.

Beyond English, I hold a US Soccer Level-F coaching license and enjoy chess. I keep lessons relaxed but purposeful. If you want to improve without pressure, let's talk.

*Quick note: I originally created this profile years ago and tutored briefly (9 hours, 5-star reviews). I'm now returning to teaching full-time and would love to work with you.*

Lots of Patience and Great Instruction

I like the way he has started with the very basics with my son. He gave him an assessment, pin pointed his weakness in the subject and now has my son eager to learn more. My son loves his methods. My son has accomplished more in 1 week with Basil ,than he has all year long with a 12k yr private school. Im excited about the future lessons to come and the development of my son academically. Having someone who cares actually makes a difference. You will be pleased with this Tutor !!
