About me

Hello,


My name is Sam and I am from California. Currently, I am living in Thailand. One of my favorite parts of my day is when I am able to help people learn English. I enjoy seeing the progress people make over time, seeing them improve their English skills and confidence. Other things that I enjoy are international travel, playing guitar, reading, running and meeting new people!


I have 2 years of teaching experience. This includes experience teaching the developmentally disabled and ESL learners. When it comes to teaching English, I have taught people of all ages and experience levels in various settings, both online and in person. I have taught here on Preply, with a Columbian ESL company called Raisbeck doing group classes with business professionals, with a volunteer program called English in Action helping international students learn conversational English, and also with developmentally disabled people teaching them basic language and life skills.


As for my qualifications, I have a TEFL certification from Oxford Seminars and a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Santa Cruz.


When teaching English I like to employ a variety of methods depending on who the student is. In all my lessons I make sure to cover all the bases: speaking, listening, reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar. I often use the PPP method and the communicative approach. Ultimately, I try my best to make learning English fun and interesting. I want each student to become confident with English, enjoy the lesson, and also learn a lot.


English is the most widely spoken language in the world and can open up many opportunities for the people who learn it. Book a trial lesson with me today and I will help you improve your skills and confidence with English, while showing you how feasible and fun it actually is to learn English.
