About Me
italki teacher since Sep 26, 2016InterestsWritingFilms & TV SeriesReadingBusiness & FinanceMarketing
I am an international businessman and former Master Business Analyst at Hewlett Packard. I have worked as a US Government contractor under SECRET Clearance and was formerly the PMO Manager for the Ministry of Interior of Saudi Arabia. I have traveled and taught all over the world and am now living in South America. I am a Project Management Institute PMP certified project manager, a Scrum Alliance certified Scrum Master, and a certified Business Analyst. I have taught for such companies as Verizon Wireless, Dow Chemical, Shell Oil, Halliburton, the Internal Revenue Service / the United States Department of the Treasury, and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency.Me as a Teacher
I have been an international project manager for over 35 years and beginning in 2008 I began teaching project management and business analysis all over the world. Most of my students didn't speak English as their second language. After marrying my USSR-born wife in 2014, it became obvious that I should teach English also because of all the people demanding it and I started that year.My lessons & teaching style
In the student's first lesson, I listen to their goals and establish their current English level. Based on the student's English level and goals, together we create a lesson plan for them that we will implement and monitor. Lessons include reading, writing, speaking, and multimedia.My teaching material

Lots of swearing, more four-letter words than any other. I recommend watching the videos from the teacher podcast which are closer to his expression in class, rather than the promo record on Italki.
