Hello I take teaching English very seriously because learning English changed my life and gave me successful life I hope to do the same with you. My parents were WWII Polish refugees who were transported from Poland to Australia. I was born in Australia but my parents did not have much English. I only spoke Polish language when I started school and over the years I became very skilled in the English language, I held senior positions in Australian government bodies and was required to have very high level English. My long career was working with people from many different cultures who did not have good English. I want to share how I learned high level spoken and written English from my experience of learning English as a second language without the support of my family and other English speakers or in a home where English is not the main language. I have the knowledge, skills and experience to teach English to others who are not native English speakers. I know the problems and difficulties of learning English. I enjoy helping people to develop and succeed. I am flexible and teach in the way that is best suited to the student at the pace that best suits them.
