About Me
I enjoy teaching English and Spanish. In college I also studied French and Portuguese but I'm not fluent in those. When I moved to Nagoya I started teaching kids and adults at ECC until I retired in 2019. I wanted to retire young, lol. I often work out at the gym and also go jogging. Near Imaike station there is a JoyJoy and I often go there to play billiards (pool). I love playing pool and listening to music with friends. I like drinking but I don't smoke.Education
UW-Madison, in Wisconsin, USA. My major was Latin-American Studies, but also studied Spanish literature. At first I wanted to study computer science, so I took several PC courses.Experience / Qualifications
In the USA I started teaching people how to use computers, before smartphones came out. I did that in Spanish. When I came to Nagoya, I started working at ECC and taught kids and adults.Ask a question

English(Improve Academic/Language skills, Terminology, Proofreading Thesis/Papers ): Beginner/Intermediate/AdvancedEnglish as a language is not only widely spoken but also, has made itself a prerequisite to the international world. Even if it is academic or just a beginner learning it for the first time, I will be helping you learn and master the English language just as I did until I achieved my dream of attending a university in English. Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking are essential fundamentals to truly master a language so we will have a lot of experience during our sessions in all of them depending on the student's needs.
