Hi! My name is Richard, and I'm very happy to be your English teacher. I have a bachelor’s degree in nursing with an education focused on sciences, as well as my recent TEFL Certificate. This background has taught me to present complex ideas in a simple way, which I have applied while teaching patients from all walks of life, as well as training new nurses, and mentoring young doctors. I am also a parent, so I have further developed skills for being patient, kind, and effective in explanation, which is useful for any topic. I will do my best to use this with you in every lesson we take. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors and active, be it hiking along a nature trail or relaxing on a camping trip. Some other things I enjoy doing in my spare time are playing soccer (football) or playing basketball with friends and family or trying a new recipe in the kitchen. I’m looking forward to getting to know you and working alongside in this course and helping you find success in English!
