Hi! Thank you for visiting me on Cafetalk.

My name is Sam, I am from New York, and I am a Teacher / Librarian living and working in Beijing, China. I have 2 masters degrees (M.L.S. and M.A.) and have been teaching for over 20 years. For the past 15 years I have been teaching all levels of English in China.

Before moving to Beijing to teach I was a Research and Marketing Analyst for ABC and CBS TV in New York City for 6 years, then I taught TV/Radio-Communications in New York for 5 years. While in Beijing I have taught business English at Lenovo, Bayer, Sinopec, LaFarge, just to name a few. I have also taught English to primary, middle and high school students.

Currently I'm a Librarian at a well known international school in Beijing. My American pronunciation is very clear, and I am often told how easy it is for students to understand and learn from me. I specialize in business and corporate English, pronunciation, vocabulary, and proper grammar usage.

I love to read, meet people and laugh. :)

I'm looking forward to talking to you and helping you to the best of my ability. Let's have fun and learn.

Sincerely,

Sam
