I’m a professional teacher with a deep love for languages, literature, music and nature. I was born and raised in the snowy mountains of California. I'm married and have a daughter who is being raised bilingually.
I’ve dedicated myself to maintaining a high level of competency in several languages. I love to play the piano, read, write, and explore the outdoors.
Teaching gives me the opportunity to help others while making connections with interesting people around the world. I have 15+ years of teaching experience, an MA in comparative literature, and a BA in Spanish — all of these have equipped me well for the job.지도 경험
I’ve taught English, literature and writing in 3 US universities and colleges, a language school in Moscow, and online.
I’m patient, understanding, organized, and progress-oriented. I strive to create a relaxed learning environment which at the same time forces students to express themselves in new, varied, precise and sophisticated ways.
My teaching philosophy reflects what I myself seek as a language student, namely:
1. a caring and cheerful teacher who sincerely wants to help their students grow;
2. intellectually stimulating topics that generate meaningful discussion;
3. ample speaking practice with a focus on language development, vocabulary enrichment, and grammatical accuracy.내 강의 및 지도 스타일
My lessons are based on interesting, current, and high-quality materials. I like using articles, literary essays, short stories and podcasts. My favorite sources are National Geographic, The New Yorker, NPR and more.
I teach using an interactive and communicative approach. We discuss meaningful topics of current interest, and during our conversation I identify any areas that need improvement. The grammatical focus flows naturally from the discussion topic. I strongly believe that reading and writing are crucial skills for improving language abilities. If you are interested in this, I may ask you to read or write something before the lesson. However, what we do is up to you!내 수업 자료

Ryan's lessons are "food for thought", always inspiring; he is extremely kind and patient, and his deep questions are like exercises for the brain :) Most importantly, he always makes you feel comfortable, which is very important when speaking a foreign language; in short, time flies during his lessons! Thank you Ryan :)

Ryan is an excellent teacher. First, His lessons are very organized, I can always learn a lot in every lesson. Second, he is very nice and patient, so I'm not so afraid of making mistakes in his class (I'm always afraid of making mistakes, which is bad, I know). Third, as a linguist, I think he knows what should be focused on in your current English level. In a word, I'm sure I'll continue to learn English from him, and recommend him to people who want to improve their English level.)
