I have been teaching English as a Second Language online for 8 years now and I can honestly say it's the best job I've ever had! I have had many successful students reach both their personal and professional goals and improve their lives in fascinating ways. I am passionate about seeing my students make progress and it's evident in my teaching.
Me as a Teacher
During my bachelor's studies in journalism, I worked as an English teacher's assistant. I led discussion groups based on assigned readings and taught incoming freshmen to write at the collegiate level.
After I finished my master's degree in social work, I worked as a drug and alcohol counselor at an in-patient addiction recovery facility. Along with my 10 client case load, I had to teach 3 hour classes on addiction and rehabilitation to groups of 60 recovering adults.
I know how to teach. My students like me. My journalism education reinforces my strong oral and written abilities; and my social work skills help me relate to my students and draw out their full potential.
My lessons & teaching style
I have a broad knowledge base. I base my style on my students comfort level. I try to be the teacher they need me to be. My lessons are probably more casual that formal, but that's mostly because my students want it that way. I'm always glad to meet serious students who are prepared to work hard and enjoy rigorous study.

* Lesson type: Conversational Skills
- The lessons with Professor Daniel are always great, the way he communicates invites you to continue the conversation and add your point of view to the discussion. He will allow you to practice and, at the same time, he will correct you and help you when you need it. Little by little you will feel more relaxed expressing your ideas, and you will notice an improvement in your English.

After so many lessons Daniel is like my closest friend. We can talk about any subjects. I think this is the best recommendation.

I am a medical student. Daniel and I worked together on my personal statement. He is super professional. He could grasp what I want to express and make modifications in a second. He explained his writing really well. Despite his professionalism, it was a lot of fun meeting with him!
I look forward to our next meeting!

He is a very nice teacher, we talked about some personal information and several topics of our life or our hometown because of the first class, and he encouraged me to talk more. He also found some grammar errors of my sentences, and helped me correct them.
