Lorna
Certified Tutor
With a Doctorate in Management from the Wharton School and over 25 years of international teaching experience, I am a passionate, former Business School Professor dedicated to empowering learners across academic and corporate settings in the US, China, and Canada.
I specialize in Academic Business English, Public Speaking, Leadership, and Emotional Intelligenceareas where I bring both deep expertise and practical insight. My teaching draws from extensive experience with university students, corporate professionals, and TEDx speakers, using diverse, learner-centered methods that balance theoretical rigor with real-world application.
Emotional intelligence is not only a key area of study for me, but also the foundation of my teaching philosophy. I prioritize student engagement and wellbeing throughout the learning journey, recognizing that the most meaningful development occurs when students feel supported, engaged, and empowered to flourish.

I have a deep appreciation for a wide range of music, including jazz, folk, and pop. I enjoy attending live performances, singing with my amateur choir, and watching documentaries about musicians and their creative journeys. Staying active outdoors is important to me—I love biking, hiking, kayaking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing as ways to connect with nature and stay energized year-round.
