About Me
italki teacher since Oct 27, 2021
I was born in North Vancouver, Canada, but I have moved around a lot in my life. Outside of Canada, I have lived in Japan, South Korea, and England. I have also visited France, Mexico, and several cities in the United States.
I love watching movies, especially fantasy, sci-fi and historical movies. I am a huge fan of hockey, and the Vancouver Canucks. I enjoy playing hockey, riding motorcycles, snowboarding, reading, writing, and listening to all kinds of music. And of course I really like meeting new people.
Me as a Teacher
I have been a professional English teacher since 2003. I have a Bachelors degree in Sociology, with a Major in Criminology, and Credit towards a 2nd Bachelor’s in Education. I’m qualified as a TESL Teacher-Sponsor. I have taught English in Canada, Japan, and South Korea, with students from infants to engineers and business professionals. I’ve also taught in school, corporate, and online settings.
My teaching includes: TOEIC/TOEFL/IELTS Preparation, General/Academic English, Conversation, Business, Presentation, Listening, Writing, Reading, Grammar, High-School, Junior High-School, Children, Etc. Digital media, Internet Resources, Online Tools, and platforms are fundamental to our lessons.

It was a very productive lesson with Brent: we briefly went though all IELTS tasks and highlighted my weak moments that I should work on. I've got only positive emotions from our lesson. Thank you, Brent and see you soon!
