Learn English from a Haiku Death Battle Champion
Among several of my previous insanities, was to begin academia in the humanities. I taught in Korea, then studied Science, now my left and my right brain have formed an alliance.

This included refining climate education, and helping kids learn at a nature-school station. Recently I’ve built some leadership s... Read more
