Introduce

Hi there! I’m Jason. I’m from the UK, but for the last 15 years I have been living and working in Taiwan, teaching students of all ages and all levels of ability. I have particularly enjoyed working with advanced high school students, helping them improve their English skills so they can perform well on their tests (school admission tests, IELTS, GEPT, etc.) and have the best possible chance of getting a place at the best schools in Taipei.

Resume
Experience

I have previously helped students (including adults) reach the following goals:

  • communicating professionally in English, both speaking and writing
  • building confidence before going to study in the UK/US
  • advanced learners wishing to progress to native-level fluency
  • developing a knowledge and appreciation of English literature
  • being able to read US newspapers/magazines
  • developing a deeper understanding of US/UK culture, society, and politics (International Relations/Politics students)
  • improving their academic writing skills

Basically, if you wish to hear the English language used in the same way as a doctor, lawyer, or professor, and bring your own skills up to that level, then taking classes with me will give you that opportunity. Similarly, with regard to writing, I can help students reach the level of an undergraduate or graduate student, explain the principles of academic writing, help with critical thinking, and so on.

Thank you for reading this, and I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Education

Right now, I am doing a PhD in English Literature at National Taiwan University, where I also teach undergraduates studying Chinese-English translation. I graduated with an MA in English Literature from NTU’s Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures in 2022.
