Hi! I'm an American living in Portland, OR and have been learning languages my whole life. I grew up learning Spanish and English in my home and later learned Japanese by watching anime with my brother. I recently moved to China for seven months to learn Mandarin and it was an amazing experience. I am looking forward to working with you!
你好！我是住在俄勒冈州波特兰的美国人，一生都在学习语言。我从小在家里学习西班牙语和英语，后来和哥哥一起看动漫学习了日语。我最近搬到中国七个月来学习普通话，这是一次奇妙的经历。我期待与您合作！
こんにちは！私はオレゴン州ポートランドに住むアメリカ人で、生涯ずっと言語を勉強してきました。私は家でスペイン語と英語を勉強して育ち、その後、兄と一緒にアニメを見て日本語を学びました。私は最近中国語を学ぶために中国に 7 か月間移りましたが、素晴らしい経験でした。一緒に働けることを楽しみにしています！Me as a Teacher
I'm both causal and professional and am here to take your English speaking to the next level. I graduated from college with a degree in Physics and then worked in the aerospace industry building satellites. As such not only is my English extremely proficient, but I am also able to speak with you about many areas of interest such as technology, science, nature, etc. I'm always looking to learn more and am excited to meet you and hear more about your culture.
我既休闲又专业，我来这里是为了让您的英语口语更上一层楼。我大学毕业，获得物理学位，然后在航空航天业工作，建造卫星。因此，我的英语不仅非常流利，而且我还能够与您谈论许多感兴趣的领域，例如技术、科学、自然等。我一直在寻求了解更多信息，很高兴见到您并听到更多关于您的文化。My lessons & teaching style
Because I am a community teacher, I focus on speaking and making sure that each class you feel both engaged and challenged. I want you to leave feeling like you learned something and pushed your comfort zone a little bit. Homework assignments are optional and will be given on a case by case basis. If you have a topic you'd like to focus on please let me know. I hope that I can not only help you improve your English speaking ability but can also help you optimize your learning method so that you make the most use of your time!
因为我是一名社区老师，所以我专注于演讲并确保每堂课都让您感到投入和挑战。我希望你离开时感觉自己学到了一些东西，并稍微拓展了自己的舒适区。家庭作业是可选的，将根据具体情况进行分配。如果您有想要关注的主题，请告诉我。我希望我不仅能帮助你提高英语口语能力，还能帮助你优化你的学习方法，让你充分利用你的时间！My teaching material

It's a brilliant choice to take Michael's lesson. Michael is a patient teacher that he listened carefully to my pronunciation and pointed out some mistakes that nobody has ever told me for the last 20yrs. And also he can speak fluent Chinese which makes the lessons even more interesting. Definitely, I'll take more lessons.

Thank you so much for today’s lesson! Michael is an amazing teacher—he’s not only knowledgeable but also very patient. He took the time to show me how to pronounce words correctly and gave examples in different ways and techniques, sometimes using Chinese and sometimes using Japanese. That approach really helped me understand better and made me feel more inspired about improving my English pronunciation and overall learning language skills!

It was great to share a successful conversation with Michael. I’m really happy and, of course, I will repeat.
Next time I will try to say “study” instead of estudy 😜
