"Many learners want to improve their writing. I've published twenty English language textbooks with major publishers such as Pearson Education, McGraw-Hill, Macmillan, Cengage, and others. My novel was nominated as a "Best Book" by the American Library Association, voted a "Best Book" by the New York public libraries, and sold internationally in paperback. It will be reissued in 2025 as will my bestselling textbook, "Whaddaya Say" (included in libraries such as Stanford, Oxford University, UCLA, and others).
I'm on your team. If you have a goal, we'll achieve it. I create a special, customized lesson for each of my learners for all skills in any area of English-- conversation, listening, vocabulary, grammar, writing, public speaking, business English, presentations, etc.
All of my learners receive custom exercises to make them sound more authoritative. A pronunciation "trick" improves ALL sounds of the English language instantly, and advanced writing techniques separate average writing from dynamic writing. AI writing, many times, is average because it doesn't address the most important goal of good writing -- emotion. My advanced writing techniques give practice in learning how to sway those who read your writing.
My English students come from some of the largest companies and universities in the world, and many have been promoted after they've worked with me, or achieved or gone beyond their goal scores on standardized tests like the TOEFL, TOEIC, etc. I also work with elementary, middle school, and high school learners.
I have a Master of Arts in Teaching English from the University of California, Los Angeles, and have produced and/or taught English programs for learners of organizations such as Toyota, Mazda Motors of America, Microsoft, Seiko, Sumitomo, Tatung, the State of California, Voice of America Radio, Tokyo University, universities such as UCLA and the University of California, Irvine, and other universities where I've trained teachers.
