Hello I am Mike C and I was born and raised in Western Canada. I am a technical college graduate (Electronics) and I have worked in a range of different jobs over the years. This experience means that I can help you with many different kinds of English conversation. I also have a wide and ever growing range of interests; everything from music to vintage cameras to steam locomotives! I am sure we can find something to talk about.

Me as a Teacher

What is conversation? Conversation is many things. Chatting with a friend in a coffee shop is conversation, but so is giving your boss a project update. Giving an informal talk to a group of fellow students or a service club is conversation, but so is giving a formal presentation (even if you do not take questions afterwards). I believe that the most important thing about conversation is communicating clearly. The best way to improve your communication is practice and that's what I am here for.

My lessons & teaching style

Conversation is not the only thing we can work on. If you are looking for someone to check a report or to help you prepare for a presentation, I can help you with that too. I like to keep lessons as relaxed as possible and to make sure that we are covering the areas that you want to. I would work best with teenagers or adults with a moderate understanding of English, but I am willing to help anyone.
