Rion Levy
Experienced English tutor specializing in creative and academic writing, language acquisition, reading comprehension, and communication confidence.
Hello! My name is Rion and I am a language arts tutor with over 5 years of experience. I have an HBA from the University of Toronto in Literature and Critical Theory. I also hold a Level 5 TEFL Diploma from The TEFL Institute with additional qualifications in Teaching Young Learners and Teaching Business English. Lastly, I hold specialization certificates from the University of Michigan in Speaking and Presenting as well as Writing and Editing. Outside of teaching, I am a writer and have published over 100 articles, poems, and short stories widely. I really love the role that language plays in our lives and love working with people to reach their communicative goals in English, whether it’s their first language or fourth. Tell me your language goals and we’ll find a way to meet them together!
