    About Me

    Greetings, my name is Dean and I'm an Australian native English speaker.
    I've been living in Thailand since 2012 when I began my life as an ESL teacher.
    Living in a foreign country and learning the language and culture has allowed me to understand and appreciate the difficulties of learning a new language.
    Helping others learn new skills is very satisfying for me.
    My interests include traveling, eating delicious food, hanging with friends and family, music, movies, playing computer games, nature, and animals.

    Education

    Australasian Training Academy - Advanced TESOL Certification (Foundation program + Private Tuition specialisation)
    Open Universities Australia - Business.
    AMEB - Grade 5 Voice. (Singing semi-opera and drama)

    Experience / Qualifications

    I've been teaching English as a second language since 2012.
    Working for some of the largest online companies, I have had the opportunity to teach students from many countries including Thailand, China, Japan, Indonesia, France, Germany, and many more. I have taught students of all ages, English levels, and countless professions.
    I also have proofreading experience.
    I have an advanced TESOL certification, which includes the standard base certification plus an additional Private Tuition certification.
    IELTS and TOEFL exams are necessary for foreign students wanting to study in the US or UK. The exams are also a stepping stone for better job opportunities and higher salaries. I have the tools and materials to facilitate your IELTS or TOEFL goals and give you the best opportunity in reaching your goals.

    Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
    For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!
