About Me

I am Canadian and have lived in Europe for fifteen years. My native language is English. My current residence is in Barcelona.

Since 1999, I have worked as an English teacher in different countries -Japan, Canada, Italy and Spain-, both for public institutions and schools and private companies.

I have accumulated considerable experience in teaching business English, written and spoken English, preparing people for TOEIC and TOEFL exams, and I have taught conversation courses for adults and adolescents in Japan, Canada as well as worked with children and adolescents in primary and high school.

Notably, I have taught art at the university level and run specific language courses for art and culture workers.
