About Me

I have always been passionate about education. After I graduated from university with a degree in International Relations, I moved to Japan for a year, where I taught English. I found teaching English in Japan to be challenging and immensely rewarding, because there is nothing more satisfying than seeing your students make major breakthroughs. My philosophy is twofold: First, I am not here to give you the answers. I fully believe in the concept of guided learning, which means I will do my very best to give you the strategies and tools that you need to find the answers yourself. Second, that your goals are outside of the classroom, therefor all learning should be anchored by something that isn't abstract. In other words, students should always know how what they are learning will help them achieve their goals. Outside of the classroom, I spend a lot of time writing because I care immensely about politics. Being able to communicate effectively through writing is an incredibly important skill, and many people don't learn it until they are already in university! If you need help framing your ideas, editing, settling on a tone that works for you, or even just getting started, I'm your guy.

Q&A with Trevor

Guided learning is the best method of teaching. Socrates knew it 2,000 years ago: if you want someone to truly learn something, teach them how to FIND the answer; don't just give it to them.
