This class is for those who have already completed a written document and would like to have it checked by a professional with experience in business and academic writing. However, the rules of this lesson type are a bit different.

No "live" editing is done. We will not meet during the lesson. Please send your document (Word, PDF, Pages, etc.), and it will be edited, with corrections and suggestions marked using Review Mode. You will be able to see all edits and changes.

If you do not see your document type listed below, message me with your details (what type of writing), and I will see if it is possible after reviewing. 

*Document Types Accepted* 
Statement of Purpose (SOP)
Letter of Recommendation (LOR)
Business Plan / White Paper / Executive Summary / Internal Documents / In-house company stylizations. 
Academic papers (APA, MLA, LaTeX, CMOS, Harvard Style, etc.)
Developmental Editing (Manuscripts, e-book formatting for publication, such as InDesign, InCopy, Vellum, etc.)
Dissertation & Theses review (formatting to in-house style and citation checking). 

Remember: Editing classes are paid by word or project and are quoted after I have seen your material. I do not do live editing in these classes; you are paying for the document to be corrected and sent back. No meeting will take place.

If you believe you need to meet before, book a 30-minute class and message that we need to discuss your project before I can begin editing. This is likely for developmental editing (manuscript editing) but rarely necessary for academic corrections other than dissertations or theses.

Copyediting / Editing / Academic Writing / Business Writing

Copy of my teaching license for grades 5-12

An in-class component, demo lessons, and an online grammar portion were required to complete the class

A certificate program to ensure proper training to teach the IELTS examination. This course covered reading, writing, listening, and speaking. It provides proof and peace-of-mind for students to rest assured their instructor has the creditability to teach needed test-taking skills for the IETLS examination.

I'm a current doctoral student completing their degree in curriculum design and educational instruction with a focus on tertiary level education. This role involves the creation, implementation, and statistical research of best practices and theories involved in education.

The copywriting certification from UCSD focuses on editing, writing, and style (MLA, APA, AP, CMOS). Certificate completion proves adherence to academic, business, non-fiction and fiction writing styles and edits necessary to ensure credible changes for authors, business professionals, and academics.

The format of teaching was one-on-one and similar in style to that of how instructors teach on iTalki.

I worked with the board of education to create and implement CLT standard curriculum in English teaching. (Current, and ongoing).

Director of Sirius English & Test Preparation Services. Manage a team of teachers and staff while running successful business operations. Team leader and teacher trainer. Sirius English runs in conjunction with several universities as research development leads, teacher training, and curriculum development (texts and online materials).

The MATESOL was designed to include all types of English teaching, ranging from children to adults, testing, to academic and business English. Each class focused on diverse information related to utilizing prior skills in business or building teaching materials surrounding the needs of students.

The MATESOL featured a rich curriculum in understanding learner needs, focusing on several areas of teaching, including children (K-12), testing (TOEFL, IELTS, CAE, CPE, and TOIEC), in addition to adult tertiary education in business and academic English. In addition, an IELTS Certificate from Cambridge was completed in November of 2020.

The Department of Education in Massachusetts issued my teaching license in Elementary and Secondary Education to teach children in Grades 5-12 in 2019.

If you'd like, we can have a 30-minute "get to know you" speaking lesson, or if you're interested in grammar or something else, let me know and we can get started!

These lessons will be conversation based and YOU will be doing most of the speaking. Either you will pick topics or I will pick topics that are relevant to your English journey- you can decide.

I will correct some of your mistakes during the lesson. I don't correct every single mistake but I will either correct you on the spot or will note all important mistakes. Sometimes it's necessary to wait until you have completed a sentence or thought before any correction should be done- it's important to also practice flow when speaking a foreign language. 

You will receive feedback from me via email after (or at the very end of) each lesson.

Speaking lessons

General English lessons:

Our lessons will incorporate speaking, listening, writing, and grammar. Lessons will be tailored to meet your needs! I will send notes after each lesson, share relevant materials, and assign homework.

While we are in our lessons, we will probably divide the time up into two categories - speaking and grammar. Half the time we will focus on grammar, and half the time on speaking. Homework assigned will usually require you to do some writing, listening, reading, and definitely reviewing. 

After the first few lessons, I'll make a plan for us to follow- it's usually about a 40-lesson syllabus. We don't have to follow it, but it will be a helpful guide for us.

Grammar lessons:

In these lessons, we'll dive deep into all the questions that you might have about grammar. If you don't have specific questions, I will guide you with resources and I will explain with clarity how and why we formulate our sentences the way that we do. I will provide you with trustworthy, additional resources so you can learn from multiple perspectives. Our lessons will be completely customized to meet your needs.

Sometimes I teach grammar in the lessons and then assign homework- and sometimes I first assign homework and then the student "presents" what they've learned. Both systems work really well- the first system working well with A1-B2 students, and the second working well with B2-C1 students.

General English lessons / Grammar lessons

These lessons will be mostly conversation based with lots of activities and games, especially with very young learners. This is an important age for language learning because kids learn QUICKLY and EASILY, and they learn the best without formal teaching. Students are pushed to speak, but on their own time- I build trust and focus on their confidence before any formal teaching. With most of my younger learners, I encourage NO formal teaching; it is better that they see me as a "friend" rather than a teacher (kids have enough school already!). At the end of the day, the lesson style is up to the parent- if the parent prefers me to formally teach, I will do that. 
When I am not "formally teaching" I am noting the student's frequent mistakes and new words, and I use the drilling method. After lots of repetition they will naturally correct their mistakes. 
*I only teach 30 minute lessons with very young learners- if there is a specific circumstance we can discuss 45-minute lessons. 
**For kids only. 
***I have taught hundreds of these lessons on italki, but my statistics were accidentally deleted!

I have much experience teaching general English, business English, survival English, basic and intensive grammar, conversational skills, IELTS prep, English for presentations, and English for startups.

Você é um brasileiro que ainda não encontrou o jeito certo de aprender inglês? Você ainda acredita nas mentiras contadas para que você compre produtos e cursos que não funcionam? Vou te mostrar a melhor maneira de estudar bem inglês e o que você precisa fazer sozinho e com professores.

Do you want to speak English even more like an American? Then you have found the right teacher. I specialize in pronunciation and will show you how to pronounce English with MY accent. If you are an actor, businessperson, interpreter, teacher, diplomat, or just wanting to expand your ability to mimic Americans for whatever reason, these classes are for you. These classes are primarily for advanced speakers that already have a high intermediate or advanced ability in English phonology.  I WILL NOT TEACH YOU THE 'CLEAREST' ENGLISH! I teach you how native speakers where I'm from REALLY speak (NOT THE SURFER/VALLEY GIRL/BRO ACCENT!), rather than an unnatural, prescribed, international, or 'newscaster' pronunciation. Be ready for a challenge, there will be many surprises. 
This course consists of 4 chapters that teach and have practice for every technique used by those I grew up with when we speak to each other. 
The course is based on the book 'Rhythm and Intonation of American English' by Amanda Lillet. As we learn the different theories in the book, we will do additional practice with my own materials for the section covered in the book with the aid of my own phonemic writing system. Although we will go linearly through the course, you will learn and practice things that are covered and emphasized in previous and following sections. Once we have finished the first three chapters, we can do a wide range of activities and be creative and personalized in how we practice that will continually change your accent to be ever more Californian. 
My other goals as a tutor are to be your native speaker connection, answer any questions you might have, share resources, encourage you, give you study tips, teach you slang/idioms/expressions, and get you to continue improving your abilities with English. You will receive access to over $100 of materials just for taking one class with me. I will also share with you other resources to practice. 
We will use Italki classroom! Not Zoom!

EnglishMaxx / Pronunciation/Speaking/Grammar for Beginners

Do you feel stuck at your current English level and are feeling a plateau? I will show you how to bring your English to the next level, from B1 to B2, B2 to C1, and C1 to C2.  Hint: YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THE SAME THING! I will show you what techniques to implement to start drastically improving your English. You will learn what you should be doing by yourself and with teachers so you can effectively study by yourself and know what to do with teachers, like me. 
We will mainly be doing Speaking and Grammar classes.
Speaking classes consist in speaking about advanced topics that I already have or generated by ChatGPT, speaking about or narrating content you have watched, and me speaking to you in a more advanced way. I have many technological resources that we can use to make personalized classes. These classes should be fun, creative, and customized to your preferences. You need to watch shows, see movies, listen to podcasts, read books and then be excited to talk to me about them and answer questions that AI generates. 

Grammar classes will be literally THE OPPOSITE of traditional schools. I will make you a large list of all the grammar rules you need to know with links. We will pick 1 grammar to work on at a time. You will read the rule aloud to me and we will read many example sentences and integrate AI if we need more. We will then do EXCLUSIVELY ORAL grammar exercises with ABSOLUTELY NO WRITING!!! using websites, books, ChatGPT, and Docs. 
Would you like to speak with a native speaker with a clear accent? Let's meet and talk about whatever you'd like. You let me know what you would like out of the conversation and we will do exactly that.
Would you like to learn modern slang that Americans use? I have an unpublished list of slang that you will not find anywhere else. Learning these will help you understand Americans easier, impress and make them laugh, and show that you care about our language and how we speak.

Poetry in English

I prepared students for Cambridge Suite examinations, supported academic progress across curriculum subjects and helped with applications to university, including personal statement writing and IELTS preparation. I worked with students from across the world from including China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mexico, Chile, Thailand, Japan, France, Spain, Poland, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and Turkey.

I taught English one to one and in small groups to prepare students for Cambridge examinations including IELTS.

I taught General English courses to adults and teenaged learners from beginner to Advanced, including short exam preparation courses.

I supported international students with all aspects of university level writing across a diverse range of subjects from Ceramics to Neuroscience. I also led small group workshops on conventions of undergraduate university writing.

I taught General English one to one and in small groups to students from the age of 3 to 70.

I was required to research and write about specific assessment systems for English language learners, these included Cambridge suite examinations and IELTS. I have also taught these examinations across institutions for 10 years.

An extension module to the Cambridge CELTA offered by the training institution. We studied methodology and materials suitable for the teaching of English to Young Learners. In addition, I worked for 8 years in British Independent schools teaching students from the age of 9 - 18.

I teach online and face to face English lessons one to one. My students range from school aged to adults. Some students work towards recognised examinations, while others enjoy exploring literature, history, philosophy or politics through discussion, reading, listening and writing. The variety of one to one teaching is rewarding and enjoyable.

I established a volunteer refugee teaching programme. I recruited qualified English language teachers following safer recruitment practices. I assessed the needs of tutees and matched them to tutors. I also undertook tutoring myself. The programme ran for 18 months until it was no longer needed.
