ABOUT ME

Unique, usually high energy, deeply interested in things (culture / music / language / places). Leftist. Always building my knowledge of countries and cultures.

I teach English for a living. I also make podcasts: one for English learners, and another about the modern history of various different countries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Critical Mass in London. Hundreds of cyclists come and cycle throughout the city together, taking over the roads. Chaotic, but harmonious and beautiful at the same time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KngMWn4PIlw

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you English (it's my job). If you want, I will identify specific things in your English that you can improve, and then show you practical ways that you can improve them.

I love exchanging cultural knowledge with people about specific things, e.g. slang, education, jokes, and more. I can also cook some things pretty well. Most importantly though, we can share a fun time.
