I am an American and a native speaker of English. I have TESOL certification and a second certification for teaching business English. I have a BSEE and worked as an engineer and technical writer for the semiconductor industry. At Mentor Graphics the job title was "Learning Products Developer" I did software user manuals, reference books, and training materials development and often assisted with training courses. I currently live overseas and I teach English on-line. I have also worked as a private business English teacher, going to the clients offices in Istanbul. I have several long term private clients and once in a while pick up some from websites. I have a few references on a site called Italki. I generally do much better with clients I find on my own. I have an excellent internet connection and pay for premium Skype, so I can share my screen and also work with multiple people on a video conference. I have worked with other conference software programs. I can adjust my bid for you depending on what you mean by hourly rate. If I need to prepare material am I paid for that time? I work with a marketing manager of a textile factory in Istanbul. Our last lesson we used Balanced Scorecard as a topic. We both read the materials and talk about it during our session. Please feel free to contact me for more information, and provide me with more information about your needs and the time frame for these classes. Thank you for your consideration, Mary Tsolak
