About this title

About the Author

I taught English in South Korea for a decade to every level and type of student and I've taught every age from kindergarten kids to adults. Most of my time has centred around teaching at two universities where I taught every class under the sun!

These days, I do private tutoring and online teaching in Vancouver, Canada. In my spare time, you can usually find me outside playing tennis, biking, hiking or on the hunt for the most delicious kimchi I can find. It's not that easy of a task in Vancouver!

I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology. During my time in Korea, I completed the Cambridge CELTA and DELTA certification programs. With the combination of almost 20 years teaching ESL/EFL learners of all ages and levels, and the more formal teaching qualifications I've obtained, I have a solid foundation on which to offer teaching advice. And of course, can help English learners improve their skills.
