My comments on tutoring Speaking : There is a saying that goes like this-Open your mouth so I can see you. How we speak is just as important as what we say. I have helped my students become more comfortable with their speaking, both in English and other languages.
I understand the fears of public speaking. I have performed stand-up comedy. I was moderately successful.
Several of my business students were complimented on their speaking skills at various conferences they were speakers at.
I know I can improve the speaking skills of most people.

I believe learning should be two way. Students should learn from a teacher and the teacher should be willing to learn from the students. My lessons are personalized to the student needs. My lessons are interactive.
