I was born and raised in California, and I have been teaching English to Business Professionals for the past 10 years. I spent my first five years of my teaching career in Brazil, and most recently I moved to Europe to work for a government-funded program. I would be thrilled to use my rich business and educational background to help you more easily navigate your career in English. Prior to becoming an English Teacher, I worked three years as a lawyer in Southern California, and I have degrees in both Journalism and Law. So, I have a great deal of practical knowledge and business experience to offer my students.
Also I love film, music, sports and traveling- who doesn't?
Me as a Teacher
One of my favorite things about teaching English is getting to connect with people from all walks of life and watching them grow towards fluency. I find my life as a teacher very rewarding and I truly appreciate the opportunity to assist my students in chasing their dreams. I am here to provide my students with the confidence they need to communicate clearly and effectively in every situation. So I work hard to create an environment where my students feel relaxed and free to speak their minds. My goal is to make each and every student feel like they are talking to an old friend.
My lessons & teaching style
I offer highly specialized lessons focusing on your personal goals in English. I rely on a diverse collection of articles and videos to engage you in conversational classes. The idea is to help you gain confidence in English, and to keep you speaking the entire class. I will not waste your time with boring grammar tutorials that you can do on your own time. Instead, I will offer my expertise in helping you perfect business skills like giving a presentation, writing a resume, and interviewing for a job opportunity. I want to help you take the next step in your career!!

Sean is a awesome teacher. Very friendly and patient. I was nervous because it was my first class with a native english speaker and he made me feel really comfortable about it. I definitely recommend him!

Excellent, very versatile teacher. I recently had to give an important presentation at our company that I was not prepared for. Sean not only helped to sharpen my English communication skills but also worked with me to prepare for the presentation itself, providing some brilliant tips that really helped to make the presentation a success. I am very satisfied with the result and recommend Sean to anyone looking to improve their English skills or move forward in their business career.
