Hi, I'm Jonathan Dreyfuss. I'm from America and I've lived and worked in Asia for a total of 17 years. I just moved back to the US, and I live in North Carolina. My experience is: 🎓Graduate from California State University with Honors English Bachelor's Degree 🎓CELTA Certified English Teacher with 10 years corporate,classroom, one on one and online experience. 🌟More than 25 years in the IT industry as a Sales Manager and Vice President. Mostly at Oracle Corporation. 🌟 Familiar with all areas of Job Search, Resume and Cover Letter Writing, Interviewing and Negotiating for the Perfect Job, 🌟 All area of Business communications, including email, PowerPoint Presentations, Oral Presentations and Business Networking. 🌟 Very familiar with multi-cultural business customs. 🌟 Most of the major English Exams, including IELTS and TOEFL. Exam coach for students now at London School of Economics, Yale, Stanford, Brown and Berkeley. 🌟 Strong academic and creative writer, with published business articles and short stories. My Teaching Philosophy: 😊Learning is best when the lessons are fun and interesting. I love to use real world examples to teach English concepts and try to encourage my students at whatever level and goals they are working.😊 I invite you to try a trial lesson with me and see how I can help you with your goals and open the world of English for you! 🌏 Sample Lessons: 🎯 Job Interviews: Keys to Success! 🎯 Business Icebreakers and Small Talk 🎯 Business emails: Do's and Don'ts! 🎯 Trade Show Preparation and Success Sorry, I don't teaching younger children. Please find another excellent teacher for this. For TOEFL and IELTS, class time usually consists of general guidance in listening or reading, and focused work on reviewing out of class writing assignments and mastering the speaking tasks interactively. For my business learners, there are a variety of approaches, from structured presentations on topics like email, small talk, finding a job, etc, to focus on current business and cultural trends and expanding vocabulary with idioms and other language tools. My style is largely interactive, encouraging students to expand their learning times, as well and focused teaching of effective speaking and writing, with reading and listening tips. Above all, I try to keep the class time lively and a bit fun. I have learned 3 languages in addition to English, and I know how important it is to stay motivated.
