Greetings! My name is Ian and I've been a professional English and Spanish coach since 2009. I love teaching and learning foreign languages because it enables me to share my own experiences with others from all around the world. If you are considering me as a language coach please send me a message explaining your current experience level and what your goals are with your target language. Looking forward to hearing from you!
**IMPORTANT!
● Cancellation Policy: I require a minimum of 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule a class.
● Attendance Policy: I will wait for 15 minutes. If you do not appear within this time frame I will charge for the class and no refund will be given.
Me as a Teacher
Most of my teaching experience has been aimed towards coaching people for business English. However, I've taught students from the ages of 10 years old all the way up to 75 years old so I have a lot of experience with different age groups and overall my classes are very flexible.
● Conversational Classes - We have conversations about topics that interest you while I correct you.
● Business English - Prepare for job interviews, conference calls and become a more confident public speaker in English.
● Formal Writing - Improve your ability to write emails or letters professionally and eloquently.
● TOEFL Preparation - I've helped many students pass the TOEFL and I can help you do the same.
My lessons & teaching style
Normally during the first class I will evaluate where you are with your English and then we will decide which type of classes will be best for you based off of your profession, interests and motivation.
