Hello!
Thank you very much for the opportunity to communicate with you using my native language! Though I am proud and delighted to be a native born United States citizen I am equally excited to connect and explore the dynamic people and cultures of the amazing planet we share. No matter what you want to do with your newly honed American English language skills I can help you. My more than twenty years working as a Public Affairs practitioner gives me the breadth of exposure and depth a nuance necessary to teach communication not just language. My avocations include fiction writing, photography, bicycling and watching movies and live entertainment in theaters. I live in a small mid-west town, very near my parents and have no discernible regional accent, yet I have had the privilege of traveling both in Europe and once to Kuwait. The manner in which I speak is coveted by the news and knowledge industry and is ideal for teaching people unfamiliar with American English. Thanks again, I look forward to meeting you!
I would really like to learn Italian!

Teaching Style
My teaching style is highly adaptable, because communicate is what I do! Let’s discuss and discover the way you learn best and what we need to achieve to meet your goals. If you want a school like environment complete with homework--I can do that. If you want to learn how to use colloquiums and jargon--I can do that too. But my favorite way to teach and to learn is through open conversations on a topic of mutual interest. I strongly believe communication transcends language and America English is a testament to that way of thinking with many words sharing meanings and many sayings changing definition depending on the setting they are used in. Either way I will help you to not only learn to speak, read and write American English, but I will help you understand and communicate using it as well.
