We will put your best foot forward and leverage your strengths. As a certified and experienced guide, I coach clients to do their best.

For two decades I've worked as a leading professor, consultant, coach, and tutor. Https://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/Evan_MA_PhD is my Wyzant profile. I can help you succeed.

I’ve helped clients (in business, science, tech, music, psych, nursing, medicine, sociology, political science, history, English, and law) to succeed. Projects include documents (essays, applications, correspondence, papers, dissertations, websites, scripts, books, etc.); music; as well as presentations, interviews, and other speaking.

For 20 years I’ve worked not only as a consultant and trainer for businesspeople (especially immigrants), but moreover as a coach, tutor, and professor. For eleven years as a Specially Appointed Associate Professor at Kobe University in Japan I taught undergraduate and graduate students full-time. I also taught a course in Italy and have lectured in Germany and England. In the US I’ve taught courses for years at Riverside City College (which enrolls many high-school students), at the University of California at Riverside, and the University of Kansas. For four years I worked for the administration of the University of Kansas, including two years at the Office of Admissions.

You'll find me authentically interested in your challenges and motivated to help you succeed.

Career Development

Career Development

I've been helping clients succeed in their careers for 20+ years. Here on Wyzant I've got many sterling reviews for my work on career development. Particularly I've helped many immigrants (as well as US-born applicants) to get jobs at some of the very top companies in the world.
College Counseling

College Counseling

For 10+ years I've worked for colleges as a professor, counselor, and admissions officer. As a tutor I do quite a bit of college counseling and have helped a wide range of students get into some of the very top colleges in the world.
English

English

I've worked extensively as a professor, editor, and tutor of English.
ESL/ESOL

ESL/ESOL

I hold advanced degrees in English and have major publications of my research on ESL, plus two decades' experience teaching it to students of all ages.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

As a consultant I've successfully coached professionals to succeed at their interviews, presentations, conversations, and in careers. I help speakers earn trust by projecting humility and confidence as well as competence, and will help you use listening and speaking skills to connect and bond successfully with decision-makers.
Voice (Music)

Voice (Music)

By learning to breathe better, we sing better. The technique I learned from world-class coaches (in the World Music Program at Wesleyan University and in touring ensembles), works for all genres of music: when you learn to use your own body as your vocal instrument, you'll find your natural voice, then develop trust to perform better with it. We'll find where your voice works best, then expand your core range, control, and discipline. You’ll learn not only how to hit and hold the notes with good tone, but moreover how to get listeners to feel powerful flows of music when you sing.
Writing

Writing

I've worked as a professor, teacher, tutor, and advisor for twenty years. As an author I’m published by Bloomsbury Academic in London, Springer Nature in Singapore, and various presses in the USA. As a researcher, editor, and proofreader I’ve worked for Facts on File and other established publishers. With me you'll learn what you need to succeed at the challenge you now face. I've tutored many writers to success at winning admission to their first-choice schools, getting A's, getting grants or investments, earning degrees, getting published, or getting jobs.

highly recommend him!

Evan helped me get into University of Southern California. He even will spot your weaknesses when you don’t notice. Also, he knows how to polish up your grammar without losing your expression. Definitely worth getting him as a writing tutor.

Patient, understanding and helpful.

Very satisfied with the first session and look forward to the second. My focus is working on improving vocals for an upcoming recording I've been working on for quite some time. The incite and advice as well as instruction and patience of my tutor, Evan couldn't be any better. Much respect.

Great help and patience

Evan was very helpful given the ambiguous requirements. He took the time to look at all options and suggest possible solutions. Thanks for the help on short notice.

Oti, 2 lessons with Evan

Very knowledgeable and experienced coach

Evan was able to help coach me with speaking with other people. He gave me advice on how to be more articulate as well as how to better express myself when speaking. He also gave me tips on how to organize my thoughts before speaking as well as how to go about answering certain questions and what interviewers are looking for. I was able to hear myself improve my speech when I had my most recent interview.

Voice and Speech Needs

Excellent intake appointment and discussion about my client’s needs. Evan shared relative content, suggested strategies and asked the right questions to form an understanding of the solutions we are looking for. Eager to start working with Evan to build a team approach to working with the student.

Evan is spot on!

Evan gives an honest and fair evaluation during your session and provides a very useful write-up summary of your session and pinpoints areas where you need to improve. Kudos to Evan!
