I'M MATT

Hi there,

I’m Matt. Among many other things, I’m an English teacher with a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics.

I’m passionate about language and communication, specifically in regards to the important role that very precise language and meaning has in every aspect of business, science, education, art, politics and social life. Consider for yourself how the right language is needed in almost any environment for success. That is where you’ll find me.

Learning a new language and all of it’s functions can greatly expand our minds and understanding of other cultures while strengthening our own assertiveness and confidence.

A KIWI IN MEXICO

I am from small town New Zealand, now living in the great Guadalajara, Mexico! With a keen interest in writing about language, philosophy, society and creativity, I aim to explore with my readers the boundless capacity of our minds in ways that will aid us throughout life.

On top of my own freelance editing work, I was previously editing and writing for an online magazine (The Richest), working on over 80 articles. 

During my Linguistics studies at Waikato University, I had the opportunity to be a private English tutor as well as a transcriptionist for the University’s Linguistics department.

Since then I have earned certificates in TESOL English teaching, and in teaching English for business purposes.

My goals are heavily oriented around growing myself professionally and sharing as much of my knowledge as possible.
