About me

English becomes more powerful when students learn how to express ideas clearly, speak with confidence, and connect with other people. My lessons help young learners and teenagers improve speaking, pronunciation, listening, vocabulary, grammar, reading, and writing through practical communication practice.

I have over 32 years of experience as a professional speaker, trainer, corporate consultant, business language teacher, and author. My work has focused on communication, presentation skills, interview preparation, negotiation, leadership, writing, and relationship-building. I have also traveled to 52 countries and worked with students and professionals from many cultures, which helps me bring real-world communication into my lessons.

In class, I can support American English, accent reduction, grammar development, listening comprehension, phonetics, reading comprehension, speaking practice, vocabulary development, and writing correction. My lessons are suitable for upper beginner, intermediate, upper intermediate, advanced, and upper advanced learners.

For older students, I can also help with business English, colloquial English, interview preparation, legal English, and medical English. Because I also have experience as a professional stand-up comedian, I like to make lessons lively, memorable, and confidence-building while still keeping clear goals and strong structure.

President

Presenting communication seminars and business relationship training to Fortune 500s, healthcare centers, and education facilities worldwide. Achievement example: At Apogee Mental Health Services, Mondays were always difficult for staff. Costly errors were far more common at the beginning of the week. In my training session the staff was given a simple, fun exercise to kick start, energize and focus on Monday mornings. Year end result of fewer work-related mistakes: 11% cost savings
