Me as a Teacher
I’m a retired professional, which means I finally have time to do what I actually enjoy — teaching English without the stress, the uniforms, or the 6 a.m. meetings.” My lessons & teaching style
“My lessons are simple: real conversations, useful phrases, and clear explanations… without turning your brain into a pretzel. We talk about the things you like — travel, work, music, games, life — and I help you speak naturally and confidently.”
“And don’t worry — I correct mistakes gently. No alarms. No buzzers. No judgment.”My teaching material

The teacher gradually tests the level of difficulty you can reach in reading. He helps you with pronunciation and explains very well any doubts that arise. He encourages you to speak.

上課前Bob做了充分的準備，讓上課不會無聊；也提供了明確的上課計畫，有助對上課內容的期待

I just had my first lesson with Teacher Bob. He asked about my goals and what I needed to improve. He is patient, and despite my limited English, we managed to communicate well. He had already prepared exercises for the first lesson and gave me the option to start with them or have a conversation.
I’m happy with the lesson and will definitely book more classes with him.
