Sobre mim
Professor da italki desde 27 de Sep de 2019Tópico de interesseAmbiente & NaturezaSaúdeViagemFinançasMúsica
I help business professionals who have been having difficulty interacting with foreign colleagues become more effective oral and written communicators.
I spent a decade working as a packaging specialist for international corporations in various manufacturing industries, including automotive (Toyota), personal care (Alberto-Culver), food (Barilla pasta), & durable goods (Weber grills). As an engineer, I collaborated with people around the world in numerous fields such as accounting, marketing, procurement, law & regulations, & product development.
In 2018, I paid off my student loans and decided to retire from engineering to focus on teaching.

I understand the value of clear and concise communication across the business world. As a language consultant, I’ve coached a myriad of business and medical professionals from Asia, Europe, and the Middle East including engineers, project managers, salespeople, nurses, and even doctors!
Students have complimented me for my passion, professionalism, attention to detail, and the way I guide them. I appreciate it when students can identify improvements and make necessary corrections on their own.
I came to italki to expand the reach of my services and to meet new & interesting people… So, please tell me... Where are you from? What do you do?Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
What are your unique hobbies? Knowing what interests you outside of work (even if you’re not an adrenaline junkie, like me) will allow us to have enjoyable well-balanced conversations while achieving specific objectives. For example, we might start a session sharing recent travel experiences before pouring over the details of a technical document or going through a vocabulary expansion exercise.
In my sessions, you’ll tend to focus on productive English communication skills (i.e. speaking & writing). My services are not limited to those mentioned so please feel free to contact me with your specific needs!Meu material de ensino

Amelia is incredibly professional and responsible. She provided me with many valuable comments on my resume, and the insights she shared have made a significant difference. Now, I feel much more confident in presenting my resume. I truly appreciate all the time and effort she invested in guiding me through the revisions.
During the first lesson, I found the experience fantastic. I had plenty of opportunities to express myself and share my work experience. Amelia consistently asked insightful questions and corrected my grammar and pronunciation issues promptly. I thoroughly enjoyed the lesson and am looking forward to the next one.
