Hello!

Hello students, My name is Jay and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to teach you the English language. English was one of my favorite subjects in grade school and I understand how complex the English language can be for someone who is unfamiliar with it. I believe there is beauty in making mistakes while learning something new, so don't be afraid to make a few! I am new to tutoring, but I promise we will have fun along the way! Happy learning!

I like to listen to music and binge watch reality TV. I also enjoy spending time with my two adorable cats. When I am not at home, I like to go to the beach and go kayaking or diving in the ocean. I like doing karaoke, even though I am not the best singer in the world. I love to travel outside of my native country, and so far I have visited Mexico and Costa Rica. Visiting countries where English is not the primary language spoken has given me a much greater appreciation for how hard it can be to learn a new language.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is very laid back and relaxed. I like to start my lessons with a friendly introduction to get to know my students. We can also read articles on topics that you find interesting, or have a casual conversation about things that are important to you. Personally I am a visual learner, so having materials that you can follow along with during the lesson will also be incorporated. Helping you have fun while building your confidence in speaking English is my priority. Please note I do not teach students younger than 15 years old. Thank you.
