I have taught over 1,600 English lessons online to students all over the world.  I also teach academic writing at the University of Pittsburgh, and have previously taught at Robert Morris University and the University of Ulm, Germany.  I specialize in teaching Business English and IELTS test preparation to non-native speakers.  I also teach academic writing to high school and college students who need to know how to write term papers, including proper ALA/MLA citation formatting.  My proven and time-tested methods make learning proper grammar and punctuation easy, and my classes in argument and research make university papers significantly better.  I also provide remedial English training for student who have had difficulty in high school.  I can provide countless samples of praise from my former students upon request.

In addition to my Masters degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, I have certifications from Cambridge University in England for teaching IELTS, writing and English grammar.  I work best as a 1:1 tutor with students online, although I will consider teaching face-to-face if necessary.  My students have ranged in age from 18 to 70.

Approved Subjects

Ear Training

For most of my life I have taught students the basics of musical keys that allow them to play most songs by ear. While I have done this mostly with guitarists, it is applicable to all instruments. The focus is on rock, country and folk music.

Over 25 years of teaching non-native English speakers how to communicate effectively in English. Employed at Siemens, Deutsche Post/DHL and other international companies while living in Germany. Have developed materials for the Wall Street Institute, Business English Pod and English Toolbox Co.

I have taught CSEN-1020 ("Argument and Research") at Robert Morris University in Moon Township, PA for three semesters. I have taught LING-0007 ("Intermediate ESL Writing") at the University of Pittsburgh for four semesters. I have taught the writing portion of the IELTS test for over a decade, and have assisted online students around the world with specific writing tasks.
Grammar

Grammar

I am an expert in English grammar, and have developed methods of teaching it that are jargon-free and easy to understand. I have developed grammar training materials for international teaching companies like the Wall Street Institute and English Toolbox Co.

IELTS

I received a certificate from Cambridge University in "How to teach IELTS" in 2014, and have taught many students since then. My students always receive a higher band score after working with me, without exception.

While I have never formally taught U.S. history, it is a subject I know very well. As a professional teacher at the university level, I am confident that I can help students with any aspect of American history.
