Lead TEFL Trainer

Michael FitzGerald

Hi, I'm a Canadian English teacher who has had successful careers in the hospitality industry, business communications & corporate writing, as well as a 30+ career in teaching English and training language teachers around the world.

I have my DELTA certification and I have been a teacher trainer for many TESOL institutes over the years. I have designed teacher training programs for universities throughout South Korea, Thailand, Vietnam and the UK as well as for many regional educational boards throughout China and for SAFEA - - the State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs.

I have written books on teaching English, sat on the TESOL Spain Board of Directors and been keynote speaker at many conferences. I have trained both native-speaking and non-native speaking English teachers to work in public schools in China, South Korea, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, Spain, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, the UK, Vietnam.

I have also taught English students in about 20 countries and understand the language weaknesses and needs of many different nationalities, such as Russian, Chinese, Korean, Spanish and most others. I also know many techniques and methodologies that will help you achieve your language goals very quickly.

In my free time, I enjoy volunteerism, fitness and ethnic cooking.
