Cultural Fluency and IELTS Readiness My Name is Craig. I am from Cleveland, Ohio, USA, and I live in Mérida México with my dog Lefty. I've been teaching English as a Second Language for around 10 years. I am very interested in language and communication, and am a fan of literature. Learning Spanish has helped me to be a better teacher. I enjoy watching sports, mostly baseball, and I practice yoga and ride a skateboard and a bike. I love cooking, nature, animals and discussing history, medicine, technology, literature, economics, culture or just about anything. I've traveled to many countries and worked in a variety of different jobs. I enjoy meeting new people and learning more every day. I have met thousands of students from all over the world. I take a genuine interest in each of my students and do whatever I can to help you succeed. I try to keep lessons relaxed and informal and to teach with a combination of sensitivity, precision, and, humor. It is important that you feel at ease and are not afraid to try new things. I do my best to encourage you to reach outside of your comfort zone and to lift yourself to the next level. Over the years I have developed an ability to understand what is blocking my students and often can explain things that they have not been able to understand before. Everyone is different, so I try to find the style that works best for you. All of my lesson are customized depending on your particular needs. Natural Fluency and General English lessons will focus on your needs...
