I am a native speaker of English, born and educated in South Africa, now living in Crete, Greece. I am a licensed ESL teacher by the Greek Ministry of Education, and have been tutoring for about 20 yrs. My experience includes preparing and giving public discourses in English and Greek, and translation and editing work. Teaching for me is not only the sharing of knowledge but also understanding ones feelings and needs. I am diligent, polite and patient and can teach beginners to advanced level. My hobbies are walking in nature, swimming, movies, reading books, listening to music, and technology.
