I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Certified Tutor

I just returned from Japan, having worked as an English eikaiwa instructor and personal tutor there several times, having been eight times, and lived/worked/studied there for close to two years in total.
My Japanese ability is conversational level; I am familiar with many cross-cultural topics and challenges.
Would you like to blog and improve the quality of your written content? I can improve the quality of your writing.
I blog on geopolitical issues and other topics at jbpeebles.substack.com
I will not give up on you! My teaching style is devoted to fundamentals and continuing improvement. I look for opportunities to improve your pronunciation. The target class size is small or one-on-one. I have helped executives prepare for overseas assignments, including orientation and relocation issues.
I've completed two 120-hour courses in TEFL from Bridge Education Group. I am a graduate of Butler University and Thunderbird, now part of Arizona State University, the premier global business graduate school.
My academic focus is on Human Geography at the AP level; I'm waiting on an assessment to qualify as a tutor in that subject. My scores have been consistent. I can help you in this area, as well as TEFL.
You've come far and just need that last effort to actualize your English language goals. I will give you the support you need. It will be both rewarding and fun, shall we give it a try?
