About me - English
Hello, My name is Jeffrey and I am TEFL certified teacher of English. I grew up in the USA never knowing that my future would take me all over the world. I have worked either in the USA with foreign companies or while living in countries teaching English. I have been able to fulfill some of my dreams of living in different cultures and experience new cultures. These experiences have made me a better teacher.
I attended university at the University of Maryland at College Park earning my Bachelors in Government and Politics. From there I worked for an international company before retiring and moving onto teaching English and moving overseas. I have worked in a variety of levels and course types. I have worked in university, school and even kinder gardens, each offers a new perspective on teaching. I have also done many course types including test prep, English for Oil and Gas and many general Enlish courses of all levels.
I really look forward to working with as many of you as I can.

Teaching Approach
My primary goal of all lessons is to get the student to be able to demonstrate the learning goal. I will demonstrate the topic and work with getting the student more and more confident in using the associated vocabulary or grammar. It is very important that students get to use the lesson points as much as possible in order to lock the information into their minds and gain confidence using it. This makes it easier for the students to recall the lessons primary focus and to be better able to use them in real world situations.
