Communicating properly in English is no longer an option but an expectation in academic and professional life. I am a native English speaker (American) with a Ph.D. and prior teaching experience in both individual and group scenarios, and my goal with this course is to help others improve their speaking, listening, reading, and writing abilities in the English language.
Approaching the language with native experience, I can provide guidance related to both educational and business English and can cover broad usage including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills. I am also able to help improve general language skills (e.g. accent training) and can provide extensive help and instruction regarding SAT, GRE, MCAT, EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

About Me
I am an academic researcher and university-level instructor (native English, American) with experience in teaching, instruction, exam prep, editing/proofreading and text correction for all ages and in a variety of contexts. I hold a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Michigan, and have (co-)authored more than 15 scientific publications.
After growing up in Seattle and then heading to Michigan for my graduate studies, I unexpectedly had an opportunity to carry out the bulk of my Ph.D. work in Switzerland, during which I was able to learn French (B1-2), and after which I accepted a position as an independent researcher at KU Leuven. I have extensive knowledge of English grammar and literature, as well as experience in scientific research with a focus on medical diagnostics, biophysics, and signal processing. I am currently instructing bachelor-level practical exercise sessions in Dutch (B2) and am comfortable providing guidance in Dutch related to English.
I have no problem meeting anywhere around Brussels or Leuven, or in the adjacent regions. I am also willing to correct, edit, proofread, and ghostwrite text with weekly and/or monthly rates. My transportation costs are included.

I am a university researcher and instructor with a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering. I am able to provide one-on-one guidance for a range of topics in mathematics (algebra, geometry, calculus, discrete math, functions and modeling), natural sciences (physics, chemistry, biology), and engineering (fluid dynamics, applied programming, signal analysis, optimization).
My typical teaching strategy follows three steps:
1) developing an understanding of the subject theory
2) introducing real-world applications of the theory
3) repeating exercises related fundamental concepts and applications
I am also able to help students prepare for a range of (pre) university exams.
