About Gary
I grew up in North America, spent 5 years in Asia: traveling, working, and studying. A long time ago, I graduated from UBC with a double major, plus a diploma in Teaching ESL. I spent 15 years in the field, plus many years in other fiends, as well. As a language learner myself, I understand the frustrations that a language learner has to face. I speak and write intermediate Mandarin Chinese and Indonesian, and speak and write elementary French and beginner Spanish. I live in beautiful Vancouver, BC, which has a strong ESL industry.
About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
- Indonesian
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
Indonesian
I can teach any aspect of ESL: grammar, vocab, reading, writing, phonetics, conversation, comparison with a few other languages, and can explain the history of English and why it is weird and inconsistent. There is no typical plan, as the plan depends on what the student needs. I like to first focus on grammar and syntax overview because many students make the same common mistakes in writing, due to lack of clear understanding. I also like to go over prefixes, suffixes, and morphemes, as they are the building blocks of many words. One can often deduce an approximate meaning by disassembling the word. Likewise for a sentence. For readings, I like to use passages from popular age-appropriate novels and songs.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the teacher's students.
Perfect! Gary is experienced, patient, and very helpful. I have benefited from his advice on how to improve my pronunciation.
- Her grasp of English is good, and she communicates clearly and fluently.
