I teach students English according to American Common Core Standards. English is my native language and I am naturally fluent. This course is for students between Grade 1 and 9 looking to improve their English Grammar & Comprehension or start over the linguistic basics from square one. I have experience in teaching students English with a different and creative approach, where the scholars get to have fun and learn something during the class.

The course is dedicated to children from 8-10 to young adult till 30. Main patient/student are typically overrepresented female 15-25, filling lost (sometime depressed) by a missing life project (Professionnel, Education or Personnal).

*STEP 1*
After a fisrt discussion, about the current situation, issues ( incl addiction, psychiatric errance diagnostic, ADHA, Anxiety disorder, or something mental that prevent you to escape from a mind circle) I give my first impression regarding my background.

Then, according to the suspected issue, this must be confirmed by other professionnal if needed, from psychologist to neurologist, from psychological objective measuring (test) to psysiological analysis (blood, brain waves, psychotropic issue, etc...)

*STEP 2*
Whatever is the issue, many choice can address it. Toogether, we establish the "scope of choice". I will fight against your auto-censorship to consider possible choices regarding your native skills (soft skills). NO CHOICE AT THIS STEP. The scope of choice MUST be as wide as possible, considering even what you did consider as out of option.

*STEP 3*
Me alone, or toogether, I create a tree choice. The question will be transformed to questions, with only 2 choices, at each step

*STEP 4*
Let's check what's at the end of the pyramid (potentially several choice)

*STEP 5*
Action plan

*STEP 6*
Action (with support if needed)

*STEP 7*
Failed ? Go to STEP 4 an try again

*STEP 8*
Thank a divinity if you beleive in it as it give you the force,
and please, thanks me I did contributed for a better life. The money is nothing comparing to interhuman recognition. That is the true value, for 5000 years... Unfortunately forgoten nowadays...

Hi, my name is Jake. I am originally from Chicago, but I currently live in Sofia, Bulgaria.

If you are looking to improve your English, I can customize lessons to your specific needs. I have over 15 years for teaching experience and I have taught all levels of students from basic to advanced. I have lived and taught in Peru, Colombia, Korea, Portugal and Turkey where I spent 9 years teaching first year students in Istanbul.

Send me a message about what you would like to work on and we can discuss a plan for you :)

I have been teaching English since 2015 to both children and adults. Lessons can be individual or groups can be arranged.

I teach from Beginner to Advanced level and professional and technical English. I also deal with preparing students from 5th - 12th grade, prospective students and students, preparing for job interview, going abroad, communication at professional level.

To begin with, I have a conversation with each student to determine the level of knowledge and then, according to your need, I prepare a study plan to work on. I don't require you to buy study materials - all necessary materials are provided by me - you are required to have a notebook, pen and of course - willingness :)

Thank you!

I am fluent in English, German, Turkish.
For learners of any second language, talking , understanding and practising , is the only way to come forward.
With me, you will be able to have communications , practice the learned details of the above languages.
Together, we will be choosing subjects, books, publications that interest you and I will be helping you to practice in the language you want to learn.
As they say, "communication is everything ".
