TOEFL iBT or Essentials and Duolingo (DET) Preparation

From 42 C$ /h

We'll first review your target score, any practice or previous exams you've taken and when your application deadlines are to make a study plan. We'll review the sections of the exam that you want to work on together, as some students preparing for the TOEFL iBT only want tutoring on a specific section.

We isolate each task to discuss the best strategy for each, then practice it. When you're comfortable, then we'll move on to the next task. I can provide homework if you'd like and I can also provide additional materials if there's something that needs fixing, like a particular grammar topic.

Extra information

Have something to take notes if you're preparing for the TOEFL. We will also use Google Docs.

English for all levels from an experienced native English teacher

43 C$ /h

Our classes will be based on your goals and current level. I teach from the pre-intermediate level to advanced and prefer working with teens and adults. It's ok if you have short term goals, like interview preparation, resume writing or preparing for a trip. It's also ok if your goals are long term where we can make a structured plan to improve every area: speaking, writing, listening and reading.

How do you learn best? We can use a book, songs, TED Talks and a variety of other material.

American Football for Beginners and Intermediates: It's not just people running into each other

40 C$ /h

This class is designed for people who want to understand American Football. It's a common thought that "it's just people running into each other", but it's like chess (just more physical) and you will understand why. We will assess your beginning knowledge and where you want your final understanding to be. By the end of our classes, you will be able to understand the basic rules, the flow of a game, terminology and how it ends.

I also have a board game that we can play (I'll send you the files) that uses actual strategy. Once you get some basics, we can use this tool to put things into practice.

⭐️ ⭐️ What my Class is like ⭐️ ⭐️

• First class I will have a conversation about what YOU need to learn better. Every class is designed differently for different students.
• I take notes about our conversation: I make notes about your:
+Pronunciation
+Grammar 📝
+Fluency/ Speaking speed 🗣️
+Listening 👂
++ Confidence using English 😎
•I have a variety of books and materials FREE of charge available to my students.

Most of my classes run longer than 1 hour or 1.5 hours and I’m fine with teaching longer!

If you need to start from the beginning, improve your English for conversation, pass a visa interview for an English speaking country, improve or pass IELTS or TOEIC tests, or learn English for business or pleasure- I have over a decade of experience.

🌟” Why choose Mr. Rhett?”
I always loved learning languages! I’ve studied German, Latin, Spanish, and Vietnamese- I understand how HARD IT IS TO LEARN ANOTHER LANGUAGE! Yes, it’s hard! But I’ve been using a dynamic method to make learning FUN 🤩.

•I’ve been teaching English since volunteering in high school teaching immigrants English as a second language.
• Every student has a different way of learning and different needs and I’ve mastered how to identify a student’s needs.
• I use don’t just use a book and say “repeat!”like in school that makes even the best student get bored 🥱.
• Depending on how a student learns: I use videos and audio of real world English speaking situations.
• I’ve taught in Vietnam 🇻🇳 for 10 years in English centers, international schools, visa interview preparation, and TOEIC/IELTS prep classes. This has showed me the importance of learning how each student learn is different. And this experience has made me a very dynamic tutor with very satisfied students! 🧑🏻‍🎓 👨🏻‍🎓 👩🏻‍🎓

I realized the best way to teach is so my students feel relaxed and comfortable so it doesn’t feel like a class.

As an American, I have a very clear accent. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in International Relations with a minor in teaching from Pennsylvania State University as well as a TESOL (international teaching certificate) from Oxford. I have Vietnamese residency.

I spend a lot of time using different materials (mock tests, pronunciation correction plans, as well as quizzes to track progress). I want my students do well but have fun while doing so! 😃

If a student ever wants to do something differently than it’s changed immediately.
Learning is a journey and I will be your guide to reach your destination.

Drawing on a strong background in academic excellence and professional legal frameworks, I teach students how to approach the English language logically and confidently.
Lessons are highly adaptable to your current level. We can focus on everyday conversational fluency, structured grammar mechanics, or highly specialized professional vocabulary tailored to your career, such as medical English for clinical practice.

English is still one of the most widely spoken European languages around the world which connects people, businesses, careers and academics.
In this hyperconnected earth, learning English still needs a human connect to properly help you understand dialects, phonemes, sounds and tones.
In my class, you get a slice of my 8 years of ESL teaching in France, Canada, Norway and India, to help you navigate the terrain of L2 acquisition.
My class would be designed around your learning pace along with quick assessments to keep you on track with your goals.

L'anglais demeure l'une des langues européennes les plus parlées au monde, un lien essentiel entre les personnes, les entreprises, les carrières et le monde universitaire.
Dans ce monde hyperconnecté, l'apprentissage de l'anglais nécessite toujours un contact humain pour bien comprendre les dialectes, les phonèmes, les sons et les intonations.
Dans mon cours, vous bénéficierez de mes huit années d'expérience dans l'enseignement de l'anglais langue étrangère en France, au Canada, en Norvège et en Inde, afin de vous guider dans l'acquisition d'une langue seconde.
Mon cours sera adapté à votre rythme d'apprentissage et comprendra des évaluations rapides pour vous permettre de progresser vers vos objectifs.
