Announcements: I am patient, knowledgeable, and thorough. With many years' experience in teaching English at all levels, I am intimately aware of the unique difficulties that English poses for Asian students. Positive criticism combines with increasing confidence to lead to an increasing mastery of English.
Hobbies/Travel: I love travelling, gardening, reading, sewing, and cats. I have visited the USA and most countries in Europe. My first visit to Asia was to the Philippines several years ago. My favorite country is perhaps Hungary, for my family lived there from 1724 to 1946.
