About Frank
My name is Frank, and I am a certified TEFL/TESOL ESL teacher, professionally trained and certified by The TEFL Org. I have a strong academic background and extensive instructional experience that help me support learners of English in practical, confidence-building ways.
I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Asian Studies from Florida International University and later completed a Master of Philosophy in Japanese Studies at the University of Oslo in Norway. These degrees gave me deep exposure to language, culture, and research, skills that directly inform my approach as an English teacher.
I am also an author of several books on Japanese martial arts, philosophy, and culture, and I contribute educational Wikipedia articles on classical martial history. This writing experience has strengthened my command of English grammar, clarity of expression, and ability to explain complex ideas in simple, accessible terms, essential qualities for effective language instruction.
In addition to my ESL work, I have taught for many years at the Institute of Budo Studies, where I worked with students from diverse backgrounds. This teaching experience has reinforced my ability to adapt lessons to individual needs while maintaining a clear, respectful, and structured learning environment.
In my lessons, students can expect well-organized, engaging, and supportive instruction that builds both language competence and real-world confidence. I focus on practical communication skills, clear explanations, and helping learners feel comfortable and capable using English in everyday and professional contexts.

About My Lessons
My name is Frank, and I am a certified TEFL/TESOL ESL teacher with a practical, student-centered approach to language learning. I believe English is best learned through clarity, confidence, and real communication rather than memorization alone.
My teaching method and techniques
I focus on communicative English, helping students speak naturally and confidently in real-life situations. Lessons combine structured grammar explanations, guided conversation, vocabulary building, and pronunciation work. I adapt my teaching style to each student’s learning pace, goals, and interests, ensuring lessons remain engaging and effective.
A typical lesson plan
A typical lesson begins with light conversation to warm up and assess progress. We then focus on a specific objective, such as grammar, pronunciation, or functional language, followed by practical exercises and guided speaking practice. Each lesson ends with feedback, corrections, and clear takeaways students can immediately use.
What sets me apart as a tutor
What sets me apart is my emphasis on confidence, presence, and clear expression. I help students not only understand English, but use it comfortably. My background in teaching and coaching allows me to explain complex ideas simply and patiently, while creating a supportive learning environment.
Who the lessons are for
My lessons are ideal for adult learners and young adults, from beginner to advanced levels. I work with students seeking conversational English, professional or business communication, travel preparation, or overall fluency improvement. Lessons are personalized based on each student’s level, goals, and specific needs.
