I was born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I have been an educator in the Ann Arbor area since 2000. That is when I graduated from the University of Michigan. Later, I obtained a Master’s Degree in school counseling from Eastern Michigan University. In the years that followed, I taught English, theater, Spanish, and spent ten years as a high school counselor in Ann Arbor. Now, I live near Ann Arbor with my wife, daughter, son, and our dog, Pomzilla. We say he is part Husky, part Pomeranian, and part Godzilla! That's how we made his name.

I have lived in the US and Spain and have traveled to South America and Europe. Someday I would also love to visit Asia, Australia, and Africa. When I can, I love to go to baseball games in Detroit, Michigan. I would love to talk to you about your own travels! Or we could discuss where you live, your job, your hobbies, your amazing family, your cute pets, or your future plans.

My teaching style is fun and I focus more on conversational English. I love to joke and have fun in lessons. I would also love to work with you on your writing. I used to do a lot of creative writing. I wrote and published a poem, two plays, a screenplay, and a novel. If you are interested, check out my website at www.endinginangels.com .

If you have material from school or somewhere else we could work on that together. I am flexible and want to help students however I can. I know that learning a new language can be scary, like being eaten by a dinosaur, or by a giant human, or by a bubble, or by a ghost, or by the king of monsters! My son loves Godzilla, in case you couldn't tell.

MOST OF THE STUDENTS I TEACH ARE IN THE GROUPS MENTIONED ABOVE: GENERAL CONVERSATION, ENGLISH PHRASES, PRONUNCIATION, WRITING, AND GRAMMAR.

However, a small group I really enjoy helping are people applying to universities. You DO NOT have to be in this group to meet with me. This is just one very specific area I know a lot about. Again, most of my students are not in this group.

Harvard! Stanford! Yale! Duke! Northwestern! And my personal favorite, the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor! Go blue! I have helped hundreds of my students gain admission to these highly ive universities as well as dozens of other schools across the US and around the world, from Ivy League to less ive state schools to community colleges with open admissions!

We can discuss the application process, examine possible essay prompts, write/revise essay drafts, and explore strategies for maximizing chance of admission into universities, and look at financial aid. If you are working on SAT or ACT preparation, I can help you with this too!

I helped hundreds of students with their college applications. Many of them would go on to the University of Michigan or Washtenaw Community College in our city, while others went to Oregon, UCLA, MIT, Brown, Ohio State, and many other great colleges.

I believe I can use my expertise to help you improve your writing and conversation skills. We can talk about applying to universities, or about your trip to Australia last year, or your apartment in Tokyo, or your job as a scuba diver, or movies, or your grandmother, or your dog, or your future trip to Mars!

I can’t wait to meet you!
