Hi there! I am a native English speaker from the Michigan. My spoken English is void of colloquial accent of any kind. I speak clearly with proper grammar and cadence, and I enunciate my words consistently in my daily speaking. I am also familiar with figures of speech I have 20+ years of experience in teaching, including working with English as a Second Language (ESL) learners from a variety of nationalities and backgrounds. I have an ear for errors, I and am able to gently correct and explain (when necessary) the reason for the correction. I love talking with people and am able to naturally carry a conversation to allow a language learner. I look forward to chatting with you!
