I taught English as a volunteer in New York City. I was with Internationa​l Center in New York. Now I am retired and living in California. I plan to use my spare time to continue teaching via the internet.
I am currently working on my own audiobooks to be made available for free via the internet. I hope these will help English students to improve their listening and speaking skills.
The most important thing for me is meeting people who want their study to be fun and not work. :D

Sincere pen pals who are interested in improving skills in English.

No romance. I am too old and it might kill me, especially since all the Interpal females are so pretty.

Do not try to send me money. I print all I need. Thanks.

Jazz music. Classic films. Correcting English and building up the self-confide​nce of those I teach. Amateur ceramics. Fishing in the dark without bait, hook or rod. Creative writing, which is not an oxymoron. Women [not for romance, but simply because women are always more interesting to old men]. Creative lying-- also known as politics. Breakdancing​ [so long as I never have to prove it]. Catching flies with my tongue. Drinking while driving drunk... I haven't started yet, but if I do I won't be able to update my profile to tell you. Shoplifting flypaper.

My own quote to those I teach. They must think it and believe it:
"My English is good, and getting better!"​
"Bob who????!!??"​
