About Me
italki teacher since Jul 23, 2021
I am returning to the ESL profession after a fulfilling career in alternative dispute resolution. I am a qualified mediator in the field of restorative justice. I bring to all my professional activities a rich understanding of how to help people who are dealing with change. I draw from my background as a published writer, broadcaster, musician, and music critic. I also have a master’s degree in fine arts. In my first career as a musician, the comfort I developed with performing in front of audiences has been a benefit throughout my working life. For example, I was a popular freelance broadcaster and music critic for CBC Radio.

Just from the trial lesson, I could already tell that John is really experienced in teaching and knows how to communicate well with non-native speakers. John is also really culturally aware, which helps a lot. When it comes to interview prep, John guides you to think in a strategic and logical way and points out the most important areas to work on. There was also a super clear and helpful demonstration of how to actually do it.
