Before becoming an English language teacher, I worked as a scientist / manager for a major international pharmaceutical company. I hold a degree in Biology and a TEFL certificate for teaching English as a foreign language. My most popular services are my English conversation classes where I introduce a mixture of free conversation, reading practice and explanation of the vocabulary, comprehension and finally introductions to new phrases / idioms. I also teach business English where you can benefit from my 20 years of experience in commerce and in addition I can also teach you interview skills with example questions followed by best answers and suggestions on updating your CV / resume. I am also skilled in teaching science to children (10-16 yrs old) and also to adults that may be interested in brushing up on their science knowledge. I am currently living in Thailand and so I am used to dealing with students who use English as their second language and I have a very patient and warm approach to teaching which ensures that students return time after time. Many of my students who have taken my lessons have successfully achieved jobs that they have applied for and noticed a vast improvement in their general and business conversation skills. I really hope you like what you see on my profile and will try a lesson with me. Thanks!
