About Me
My name is Joseph, and I am an English teacher from New York City in the USA. I have a passion for teaching the English language to people from all over the world, and am a fun, friendly, and knowledgable teacher! I hope you consider studying with me, you'll be amazed at how quickly you learn!
Though I am comfortable teaching any aspect of English, my specialty is accent reduction. I currently study English phonetics and phonology at the University of Georgia in my Master's degree, where my major is linguistics. I am well-equipped to work with those who would like to achieve a more natural sounding American, English (British), Irish, or Australian accent for work or for every day life.
As you can see from my reviews here on Verbling, I have many happy students, and I would love to work with you to help you conquer your English goals.
I have an unshakable knowledge of English grammar that is unrivaled. When other teachers tell you "I don't know" or "That's just the way it is" I can give you concrete reasons that will improve your English skills confidently and quickly.

Estudié español por 8 años, y podría enseñar inglés a hispanohablantes que saben poco ingles. Trabaje conmigo y hablaremos en ingles en un santiamén!
So parlare bene l'italiano e potrei insegnare l'inglese agli italiani che conoscono poco l'inglese.
Sei falar bem português (do Brazil)
Ich habe Deutsch in der Universität studiert, und obgleich meine Deutschkenntnisse schon etwas eingerostet sind, könnte ich English zu diejenigen, die Deutsche sprachen.
