WORK HISTORY
University Certified Teacher of English to Speakers of other Languages @Wyzant
I am a dedicated ESL adult education consultant and enthusiastic American English communications tutor. I personalize my American accent English services for international working professionals. I am especially grateful to the generous adult ESL clients who have provided the following reviews of my lessons:\"Excellent tutor! I started to hire a tutor because I felt I have little chance to speak English even though I am doing my graduate program. When I talk with my classmates, the conversation is not a good practice because my classmates do not correct me if I misspeak. Then I found Nathan. He provides a lot of great suggestions for my spoken English, especially in the following aspects.**Choice of words- As an ESL speaker, I sometimes use impolite or awkward words I am not aware of. Nathan is a sensitive listener. He corrects me and gives appropriate suggestions of choosing words.**Fluency of sentences- Nathan always listens to me carefully. He will point out what I miss in a sentence and encourages me to practice the complete sentence again.**Perfect example of English speaker- Nathan\'s accent is the so-called standard American English accent. He always speaks as a gentleman and teaches me to speak in a polite manner. He also speaks in a well-organized way so that I can understand everything he tells me.**Selection of materials- the materials that Nathan selects are very helpful and interesting. For example, the book of phrasal verbs provides daily-life verbs and good exercises. The English podcast is a wonderful practice of listening and speaking.Nathan is always well-prepared before we meet. We have a schedule for every class and he never rushes to finish the class just because the time is up. Overall, he is definitely an excellent tutor and I will keep learning English with him!\"- Peihsuan W, Atlanta, GA
