​I’m excited to see students grow, in more than just their English ability! I want to help students build up confidence in themselves, so they can share that progress with friends, and help each other grow.

I’m passionate about language. I love poetry and rap, learning languages, playing with sounds, and creating music. I spent most of my life enjoying and studying language just for myself. Now, I want to invest in the Thrive community to help people communicate and express themselves creatively.

Hi! I’m Jeremy, and I’m looking forward to meeting you and helping you reach your goals for growth. I love getting to know students from all kinds of backgrounds and helping you to find out more about yourself - your strengths as English learners, your life stories and their impact, your hobbies and interests - so that we can work towards the most authentic version of you :) 

In my free time I like playing acoustic guitar, biking around Taiwan, and enjoying board games with friends. I hope to hear about yours soon and get to know you better at Thrive English!

As I kid, I loved to read books and play pretend with my sisters. Whether they’re ones I’ve told myself or heard from others, stories have deeply influenced how I think and see the world. I’ve experienced firsthand how powerful storytelling can be— my secret tip for learning anything is that a story will help it stick in my mind. My hope is that Thrive English will be a place where, through the power of language, we can better understand our own stories and grow through the process of sharing them with each other.
