Me as a Teacher
Learn business English with a business professional. I use business English every day and can give you management insight from an American prospective. I live and work in Silicon Valley in the Stanford Research Park with software developers and consultants. I have over 11 years as a business project manager and still doing management consulting. Learn business English from someone who actually uses business English every day. I think no other Italki teacher can give you specific business-related English AND Western business culture awareness (I know PMBOK and GAAP as well as writing for the sciences). **Student reviews agree, I have the ability to help you get the job you want and keep it!!
My lessons & teaching style
Let me help you speak clearly in sound, and efficiently in words that allow people to understand how excellent you are.You choose what to practice and learn.** If you would like to propose a session time not listed, please message me. I am flexible. Pricing varies and may be lower on the weekends or on US holidays. Check back frequently for special rates. My student reviews testify. You too can improve your pronunciation (accent reduction), learn idioms, sentence structure, and deliver great reports and make outstanding presentations.

Troy has provided me with valuable insights. He came prepared and helped me to understand what the potential interview questions might be and how to prepare to respond to them appropriately. I recommend the teacher!

Troy is a very professional tutor on Italki. He helped me to analyze every detail of the position's requirements for which I was applying, developing connections between my skills and requirements. I am looking forward to having a lesson with him again.

My lesson with Troy open my eyes on what it is to get ready for an interview in a nursing field. The lesson with Troy was a simulation of a real interview complemented with constructive feedbacks on my answer to his interview questions. What is more, he gave me some relaxation technique that would help me to lower the pressure and tension; thus going to the interview with serenity. I would not hesitate to schedule another session with Troy to further my preparation of my interview. Thousand thanks!

In this class, I write a script of my answer and we go through the details of it. And Troy point out mistakes that I make. It’s really helpful.
