Build learning around what matters.
For nonprofits, educational programs, employers, and individual learners. We begin with the communication people need to do.
Looking for private lessons? Explore individual courses and packages. For organizational projects, the services below can be scoped around your program.
Programs & learning paths
Define outcomes, sequence lessons, create assignments and models, and prepare materials for online or blended delivery. Clear directions and meaningful tasks keep the learner in view.
Academic & professional English
Writing, speaking, grammar, and communication practice for study, work, interviews, presentations, and professional relationships. Instruction can be customized for individuals or groups.
Feedback that shows a next step
Writing and speaking rubrics, CEFR-informed evaluation, exam preparation, and feedback learners can use. My rating experience includes iTEP, TOEFL speaking, and GRE writing.
English ↔ Traditional Chinese
Through TriStar Language Services, co-owned with Huilin Gao, we provide translation in both directions for medical, legal, business, and educational materials. Ask about a translation project.
Technology with a teaching purpose
Google Classroom, Moodle, Canvas, H5P, and live online teaching workflows. The tool should clarify the task and make participation easier.
From a question to a usable plan.
A collaboration may begin with a review of current materials, a conversation about learners, or a course idea. We can then define the scope, deliverables, and feedback process together.
