Hello! My name is Cory
I am an English teacher, photographer, and digital designer from America with seven years of experience teaching both general English and business English. I have a CELTA certificate for teaching English to Adults and a BET certificate for teaching Business English. I also have a business background from University.Me as a Teacher
My personal approach to teaching English follows my belief that learning should be communicative. Depending on your personal interests and needs, we can follow up our speaking exchanges and dialogue with additional focus on grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary revision.
I also believe that we should always be having fun with topics and exercises that are interesting to us both. As a digital designer, I want to make our time together fun, interesting, visual, and interactive.
Do you want to develop your speaking skills and do you also have an interest in German culture and food? Then let’s have a role-play dialogue in a beer hall in Munich. My lessons & teaching style
I offer a few lesson types and all include speaking. Two of my favourite courses are:
1) English through Reading: We will read through a news article, opinion article, comic, or piece of literature that we find interesting. As we read together, we will practice using the new language that we find and you will successfully be able to use it. I highly recommend this option for improving your speaking skills, as we will be using authentic native English material.
2) Free-flow Conversation: This class will entail a casual conversation and extra focus on your grammar and speaking mistakes.
3) The other courses will focus on Native slang, Interview Prep, and General Improvement.My teaching material

Cory always comes prepared with interesting and engaging topics to discuss, which makes every lesson enjoyable and productive. He has a great way of incorporating natural American English phrases and idioms into our conversations, helping me expand my vocabulary in a practical and meaningful way. I’ve noticed a big improvement in my fluency thanks to his approach! Highly recommend to book a class with Cory!
