About the Author

I taught English in South Korea for a decade to every level and type of student and I’ve taught every age from kindergarten kids to adults. Most of my time has centred around teaching at two universities: five years at a science and engineering school out in the rice paddies of Chungcheongnam-Do, and four years at a major university in Busan where I taught high-level classes for students majoring in English.

These days, I do private tutoring and online teaching with mostly Chinese students in Vancouver, Canada. In my spare time, you can usually find me outside playing tennis, biking, hiking or on the hunt for the most delicious kimchi I can find. It’s not that easy of a task in Vancouver!

In case you were wondering what my academic qualifications are, I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology. During my time in Korea, I successfully completed both the Cambridge CELTA and DELTA certification programs. With the combination of almost 15 years teaching ESL/EFL learners of all ages and levels, and the more formal teaching qualifications I’ve obtained, I have a solid foundation on which to offer teaching advice.
