Introduction: Since I began teaching English in Austria in 2011 on a Fulbright Commission program, I have been teaching English and German in classroom, small group, and one-on-one settings, both at home in the US and internationally, to students of a dozen different linguistic backgrounds. Today, in Austin, I teach professionally for the Berlitz Language Academy, and I take a few private students on the side. Any day that I can watch a difficult idea click and make sense to a student is a good day, no matter what else happens. I will work hard and creatively to give you those lightbulb moments.

ESL (English as a Second Language) Lessons

My experience of Jake’s teaching skills is based on his time as teaching assistant in Austria. He taught my class for one hour per week for a year. I always looked forward to his lessons, because they were interesting, well-structured and never boring. Jake’s teaching methods are quite flexible so he was able to adapt to every student as individually as possible without neglecting the others. The covered topics were informative, varying and had a personal touch. He constantly managed to engage us in discussions, even though we were a lazy bunch and a lot of others had failed before. I, personally, learned a lot more than just vocabs and grammar. It was really great having him as a teacher and I would have loved to have him for a longer time.

My experience is based on him teaching english in austrian highschools for a year. He is definitely a good teacher with a personal and relaxed access to teaching. Can explain well, gives credit where credit is due and has lots of background information about everything he's teaching. Overall a world open and well versed person who is willing to give his best at all times.

Unfortunately, we were only able to work with Jake briefly due to some logistical constraints, but during that time he was fantastic. Great with kids. Highly recommend.
