The Method

It's simple. I teach how you learn. In our first classes together, we will establish your goals and objectives. We will also figure out your ideal learning style to MAXIMIZE your learning!

As a lifelong martial artist, I’ve been around belt-ranking systems for as long as I can remember. These are a good way to know your level and understand what you have to do to get to the next level because with each belt advancement, there are certain skills and abilities that you need to be able to demonstrate.

This is why I love this system. It’s not about the knowledge that you have, it’s about being able to use that knowledge in real life when you need it. These belt rankings also give students motivation to work and learn to reach the next level, and then a feeling of success and accomplishment when they achieve it.

​The true beauty of this system is that it transfers to any area of life. Seeing this method in action helps us to apply it no only to English, but to any area of life we want to grow and improve.
