Hi, I’m JP. Your Tutor.

I created Link Hall because I believe that language fluency isn't built on memorized grammar rules or repetitive drills, rather through real, meaningful interaction and shared ideas.

I’ve always been drawn to great literature. Books offer something traditional language textbooks simply can't: a window into human experience, culture, subtext, and natural idiom. When you read and discuss a compelling story, small talk disappears. You aren't just practicing vocabulary; you are sharing your perspective, decoding cultural nuance, and finding your voice in real time.

How My Background Shapes Link Hall

Link Hall brings together two distinct sides of my professional life:

• Six Years of International Teaching: Having taught English in Hong Kong, Mexico, and Canada, I’ve worked with adult learners from all walks of life. Holding a TESOL certification and scoring an 8.5 overall on the Academic IELTS (with top scores in speaking, reading, and listening), I understand the issues speakers face when trying to bridge the gap between "knowing English" and "feeling natural."

• Corporate & Hiring Experience: Outside of education, my career includes years managing digital accounts, client operations, and participating directly on hiring processes. Having interviewed and evaluated candidates across various industries, I know what hiring managers actually look for, and how to help non-native professionals articulate their real value with confidence.
  
  Whether you are joining an intimate 6-week book club to discuss modern literature, practicing real-time conversation 1-on-1, or polishing your narrative for an upcoming job interview, Link Hall is designed to be a thoughtful, supportive environment.
