About

After more than twenty years of teaching in five countries on three continents, and helping students who range in age from young children to “none of your business,” and who have education levels from kindergarten to PhD, and after teaching in settings from private language schools to public schools and universities, I am eager to share what I have learned about the English language with students from all around the world.

My knowledge of teaching comes from both many years of practical experience, and a formal educational background; I have a Bachelor of Education and Master of Education in Teaching English as a Second Language, both from the University of Alberta.

I have learned additional languages, so I know the frustration and the excitement of learning to understand, communicate, and think in new ways.

I am not a computer expert, but I know enough to make this website! I am learning how to make YouTube videos that are hopefully both interesting to watch and helpful for learning.

I hope you find the work that I have done to be helpful. Best of luck learning English!
