About Me

Hi! I’m Oliver, a professional English teacher in New York City. I’m a graduate of MIT with over 10 years of experience as an educator, and experience in engineering and IT. My sessions provide a relaxed and friendly atmosphere to learn, practice and improve. We can work on:

• Conversational/Speaking Fluency
• Interview Preparation
• Test Preparation: TOEFL & IELTS (Speaking)
• Pronunciation and expressing yourself more like a native
• Grammar
• Specific topics that interest you
• Language learning strategy

I welcome advanced beginners (A2) and higher levels. Send me a message concerning your goals or any questions. I look forward to speaking with you and helping you improve your fluency!
-Oliver
