Hello! I'm Jerry, an experienced American English teacher with a Biology degree, teaching experience in the United States and internationally, and thousands of online lessons with students from around the world.
I've taught more than 4,000 lessons to more than 1,600 students on Verbling, with a 4.9/5 rating, 98% attendance rate, and an average of 9 lessons per student.
That experience has taught me something important: students learn English best when lessons are connected to their real interests, goals, and lives.

I specialize in practical American English, including:
- 🗣️ Conversational English and speaking confidence

Learn English Through Science, Nature & Interesting Ideas
One thing that makes my lessons different is my background in biology and science.
I have studied and taught subjects including biology, chemistry, molecular biology, evolution, ecology, marine science, and animal behavior.
If you're interested in science, medicine, animals, nature, technology, space, the environment, or the future, we can use those subjects to make English practice much more interesting.
Instead of spending an hour talking about artificial textbook topics, we can have a real conversation about something you actually care about.
My Teaching Approach
My goal is not simply to teach you more English vocabulary.
My goal is to help you use English more confidently and naturally.
During our lessons, I listen carefully to how you communicate, identify the areas that are holding you back, and give you practical corrections and exercises.
We'll work on:
Speaking → Vocabulary → Pronunciation → Grammar → Confidence
I encourage questions and conversation, and I adapt lessons to your level and personality.
You don't have to be afraid of making mistakes. Mistakes are part of learning.
Lessons Can Be Customized
Every student has a different reason for learning English.
Perhaps you want to:
- Speak more confidently with coworkers
- Prepare for an interview
- Pass IELTS or TOEFL
- Communicate with international friends
- Study at an English-speaking university
- Improve your American pronunciation
- Discuss science professionally
- Travel more comfortably
- Improve your everyday conversation
- Become more fluent
Tell me what you want to accomplish, and we'll build the lessons around that goal.
What Happens During Your Trial Lesson?
Our first meeting is a chance for us to get to know each other and determine how I can help you.
We'll discuss your goals, talk about your current English level, identify areas for improvement, and do some actual English practice.
I want you to leave the trial lesson thinking:
"I know exactly what I need to work on, and I can see how Jerry can help me."
If we're a good match, we can then create a regular lesson schedule around your goals.
Why Choose Me?
You don't need another English textbook.
You need someone who will listen to you, understand what you're trying to accomplish, and help you communicate more effectively.
With 4,000+ Verbling lessons and more than 1,600 students, I've had the opportunity to work with learners at many different levels and with many different goals.
My approach is experienced, patient, conversational, and personalized.
