Announcements
I'm a first language English speaker. In Toronto, I've been a homestay host for male and female international students from Japan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkey, Brazil, France, Saudi Arabia, and China: teens & young adults. I have a -4yr-BA-French Specialist and an MBA, Marketing & Entrepreneurial Studies focus. Since my primary level education, I have learnt English Grammar
Hobbies/Travel
While I have not travelled outside of Canada very much, I really love watching documentary films about other countries and cultures, all around the world. I have a wonderful public library system in Toronto, so I try to read authors from all regions of the world. I get a thrill from reading other's writing, and being able to contribute to that creative process. I have a really, really broad range of topic interests, and enjoy constantly acquiring new knowledge, so I am comfortable giving writing feedback about most non technical topics.
Message from the instructor
I am familiar with international ESL assessment levels such as the CEFR, IELTS, TOEFL. It is important that I provide text correction appropriate to the writer's language level. Also, clarity and brevity and organization of feedback are essential factors. I have a very friendly, supportive and encourage style.

    Thank you for your suggestions. They helped me improve my vocabulary and broaden my writing style. I stopped using a flip phone about ten years ago, but I still remember that its battery used to last longer than my current smartphone, which was what I loved about that gadget.
