Hello, my name is Rory. I like apologetics & polemics, playing music, watching movies, reading, hiking and martial arts.
I’ve been teaching English for several years now and began my vocation in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Italy, just outside the city of Siena. From that point on, I began teaching English regularly over the summers, particularly, in the United Kingdom. I was later hired for a full-time ESL teaching position in Toronto in early 2016 and have been teaching many students since then. I teach everything from Kindergarten to Grade 12 in a publicly funded school, and also teach English lessons to adults at Language Links.

My name is Amanda and I am from Canada. I enjoy reading, hiking, camping and travelling,
Recently, I returned from teaching English in Indonesia for the last two years. My students were aged 3 and up and I hope they learned as much from me as I did from them! My love of languages started years ago when I did a student exchange to Spain so I can relate to what students are going through when they are learning a new language. I believe the opportunities provided by learning English are endless and I am excited to be part of that journey and to get to know so many different people in the process. Learning English should be fun!

Hello everyone,
My name is Dave, and I currently reside in Toronto, Canada. I have been an ESL teacher for almost 20 years. My adventure teaching English started in a small village just north of Seoul, South Korea. In Korea, I was the head kindergarten teacher. I loved teaching children. From Korea, I moved to Japan and lived in a city outside of Tokyo called Ichikawa. I taught adults and children there. 16 years ago, I moved back to Toronto where I mainly teach adults. I have taught all levels from beginner to advanced. I have also taught business English as well, but my specialty is test prep courses, specifically IELTS. I am currently an English examiner, and I have written two textbooks for the IELTS test. I hope to see you in my class soon.

I have taught general, academic, and business English at all language levels. I try to create a relaxed and interesting environment so that it is easier for students to learn. I focus my lessons on what my students need to improve and believe that making mistakes is part of the learning process. My goal is for students to become more confident about their English skills.
