Hello, bonjour, and bom dia! I'm originally from Austin, Texas, and I speak with a neutral North American accent in English and a standard Parisian accent in French. My reason for being is to learn as much as I can about the world and the people who inhabit it. I enjoy travelling, anime, music of all kinds (especially music from Brazil), good tea, astronomy, and I'm a terrible skateboarder (yet I continue to do it anyway). I look forward to opening more doors to the world with you!

Clinton is very patient and helpful. The class is always very interesting and I learn a lot. I get a lot of speaking practice in topics that are enjoyable. As a non-native French speaker he is able to understand some of my frustrations in learning the French language. He is able to explain things clearly so that I can easily understand.

We feel so lucky to have found such an amazing teacher like Clinton. Even though new to italki, he’s either very experienced in teaching English or just a natural at it. He has a great sense of humor, knows a lot about various topics, and really knows how to connect with learner. During the lessons,I'm completely engaged and captivated by him. What’s even more remarkable is his patience and professionalism. Even when I don't know certain words or sentences, he gently guides me and encourages meto express. After the very first lesson, I think I love him.And by the time the second lesson was about to start, I'm already eagerly preparing and looking forward to talking with him again! I’m truly grateful for his help — I think he’s a truly outstanding English teacher.

I'm so happy to have found not just the best teacher but a friend🤗I don't feel nervous or shy at all,I fell like we've been friends for long time...in my opinion that's the best way to acquire a language, getting emersed in the culture,get the jokes,the history,to connect emotionally will make you feel/sense all the contexts of life,instead of study the language,and with Clinton I can open up,speak my mind,get emotional(like I did got the goosebumps today) What to expect from Clinton, he's smart,fun,pacient,kind and easy-going...prepare the coffee☕🍩🍰because the class will turns out as talking to a friend🤩🍀🫰🏼 thanks so much Clinton🙏🏼 Se vc for brasileiro eu nao tenho duvida que o Clinton é a escolha certa. Tem um bom coraçao💚 Fala Portugues fluente e Vai TE ajudar efetivamente a vc falar como um nativo🇺🇸
