About Michael
Hi! I'm Michael, a native English speaker from the United States with a background in professional sales, client communication, and film and television.
I specialize in helping intermediate and advanced English speakers communicate more naturally and confidently in professional and everyday situations.
My sales background gave me experience leading client conversations, understanding customer needs, explaining complex information, negotiating, and communicating persuasively. I also hold a BFA in Film & Television, with experience in writing, storytelling, and presenting ideas clearly.
I especially enjoy helping students with Business English, sales and client conversations, job interviews, presentations, networking, natural American English, and everyday conversation.
My goal is simple: help you feel confident actually using English in the real world.
Teaching style
My lessons are practical, conversational, and personalized around how you actually use English.
Instead of relying heavily on textbooks, we'll practice real situations. That might mean role-playing a sales call, preparing for an interview, practicing a presentation, navigating a client meeting, or simply having a natural conversation.
I'll help you improve your pronunciation, vocabulary, natural American phrasing, grammar, conversational flow, and professional communication.
I want my lessons to feel relaxed and engaging. You don't need to worry about making mistakes—we'll use them to identify what we can improve.
Tell me why you're learning English and where you want to become more confident, and we'll build our lessons around your goals.
