About Me

Friendly Canadian who's fond of cooking, running, travelling and making new connections.

Instead of teaching by drilling grammar rules and making you memorize vocabulary lists, I'll teach you by conversing, by using idiomatic expression and by kindly correcting your mistakes.

You will learn new words by using them in real dialogue. You will build your confidence by speaking. You will learn English while laughing and having fun!

Gaurav
Experienced TEFL Certified Corporate English & ESL Online Teacher For Corporate and Classroom Students (via Zoom)
I offer classes for Business English, and advanced TEFL / ESL students. Business English: Business English gives you the ability to advance your career in a multicultural / multinational company with the aid of the understanding relevant business context, cultural meanings of business situations and appropriate business word choice depending on the setting. According to recent studies, 94% of employees are more likely to stay with an employer if personal development courses like language trainings are offered. Additionally, employees increase their likelihood of promotion opportunities, leading to higher retention and increased company loyalty. During our initial lesson I will take the time to understand your needs, and tailor the lessons accordingly to help you as an employee communicate more effectively, so that you can aptly respond to the context of your everyday work and dealings with clients or business partners. I have experience in teaching in the top subsidiaries of a Forbes 500 company and am certain that my skills can help in your professional development. The engineering students who excelled in my Business English classes in Shanghai, got transferred to Chicago, in part due to our Business English cultural lessons. If you are the company’s coordinator for Business English activities you can contact me to organize lessons for your employees so they can communicate more effectively. Advanced / Intermediate Classes: Additionally, I have experience with teaching Advanced / Intermediate English students. All lesson plans are prepared ahead of the class and are aimed to work towards the mutually understood goals of the students.
