Although I am an American now living in New Zealand I also have a strong connection to the Korean community. As a student of meditation and Buddhism for many years my teacher is a Korean monk. Since 2006 we have been working on building a Buddhist community and meditation centre in the Far North. There is a link on this site to Pannarama NZ and if you are interested to learn more check that out. The Pannarama International Group has a temple near Gimhae, South Korea that I have spent a fair bit of time living at while teaching in Korea and through that have been fortunate to gain many wonderful friends. Although based in New Zealand I still travel to South Korea for a few months every year to participate in Summer and Winter camps for students. These camps focus on English and meditation and although they are lots of hard work for students and teachers, they are also tremendous fun as well. I hope this explains a bit more about me and my unique relationship with Korea.

I’m a native English speaker, born and raised in the United States. I have a M.A. in Economics from University of California at Santa Barbara. Most recently I have been a university professor in South Korea teaching English. Over the past 3 years I have edited several manuscripts on Buddhism and meditation translated from Korean to English. I have several years experience proofing and editing papers for university students, documents for NZ and Canadian immigration purposes and website content.
I am patient, professional, accurate, thorough and most importantly I love what I do!
Below are my contact details. I look forward to hearing from you.

Come stay in the wonderful Far North of New Zealand to experience English in a whole new way. I provide private homestay English tutoring that really makes a difference in your conversation skills. Each morning we work one-on-one for 3 hours and then in the afternoon we have activities such as surfing, hiking, gardening, cooking, fishing, sailing, etc. that help you learn by doing. Each night you have some homework to complete for the next day’s lesson.
On weekends, there are many day trip options from your homestay – swimming with dolphins, visiting Cape Reinga & 90 Mile Beach, surfing lessons at Taupo Bay, game fishing in the Cavelli Islands and much more. Have fun and learn by doing!
