InterestsHistoryReizenArt
I currently live in southern China. I have been fortunate enough to live in many fascinating places, from Antigua, Guatemala to greater Tokyo, Japan. I love to explore many places and am especially fond of anything in the outdoors. When I’m not in class you’ll often hear a splash! That’s right, I seek out lakes and rivers and love to paddleboard, swim or snorkel. I also love to hike as well. However, it is my goal in class to hear about your experiences and I love many things and am interested in a wide variety of topics, from technology and marketing to local cuisine and decor!

Ik als leerkracht
I have lived abroad for most of the last ten years, spending a great deal of time in China, Korea, Japan and Guatemala. I have taught in almost all of these places with a wide range of students, both in ages and English level. This has included primary school students, middle schoolers, college undergraduates and adults engaged in business and science. I have taught large classes of students in writing, speaking, grammar and interviewing skills. I have also conducted many conversant classes, one on one, focusing on a student's particular interest and focus. As I have studied foreign languages myself, I have a strong understanding of the challenges and joys of second language learning.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My goal as a teacher is for you to have a comfortable, constructive environment to learn in and practice your skillset. I am a communicative teacher which means my intention is for you to use English. Without the ability to practice there will never be a chance to grow with your language. I have a wide variety of interests and always engage students in their own unique life experiences and hobbies. This is your chance for a fun and rewarding time.

I’m 90% sure Craig has secret powers. Like, how else do you explain the fact that I join the class sleepy and shy, and 5 mins later I’m talking like I'm hosting a podcast?? He drops one question, and boom - I’m in full storytelling mode. Honestly, I don’t even know how he does it. It's like English just happens around him. Respect and full recommendation!

Lessons with Craig are so engaging! And what's more important they enriches me more than any other routine to learn English. Speaking with Craig causes inevitable fluence. Just booking his classes and nothing else to effort but enjoy his style to communicate.

I have studied with Craig more than 2 years and I should say he is one of the best teachers I have ever met! It is never boring, he is well educated and can discuss really every subject. Lessons are always interesting, he tries make them comfortable and useful for you. Thank Craig! I strongly recommend you for everybody.

Craig’s lessons? Straight up an English-speaking party. No judgment, no boring grammar lectures, just real convos that somehow teach you without you realizing it. You just talk, laugh, and learn — all at once. Honestly, it’s lowkey therapy. I leave every class like: Yo, I can actually speak English??! Top-tier, no question.

Craig is still the best teacher ever. It's so cool to discuss a huge variety of topics with so well-rounded person: psychological, existential, philosophical, cultural, linguistic, as well as chores and routines, you name it. Whatever subject we have we do not have those inconvenient pauses when nobody knows what to say to proceed the conversation. Sessions fly by and it would be wasting the time to have silence while we're talking

Another great lesson with Craig! We discussed the political situation in Israel and the United States, we discussed the storm that is coming to Israel. So many positive emotions from the lesson with Craig! He is an amazing teacher!
