The English Language Consultant
I am a linguist with over 25 years teaching ESL and business writing as well as an editor/ writer. I offer courses and seminars to professionals in Business Writing, How to Edit your Text and TOEFL Preparation in Kanata On Canada. I developed 5 Business Writing or TOEFL Preparation texts that I give to each participant as a class text and reference guide.
My clients are usually professionals whose second language is English. I want them not only to be able to write and speak English with ease, but also to be able to edit their own texts. I teach a holistic class so that participants go away with renewed confidence and trust in their writing skills and in themselves in general.
