A bit about me

Originally from the U.S., I’m a certified English teacher with an M.Ed. in Counseling and over 20 years of international experience working with learners of all ages and backgrounds.

I work with children, teens, adults, and U.S. university applicants, from reading and speaking development to academic English and admissions guidance.

My approach is personal and practical, built on positive, personal relationships with steady support.

When students feel comfortable, supported, and understood, trust grows.

Confidence and progress follow.

Parents and Students Say

Hungarian parent

"Dan took the time to really get to know my son—his strengths, interests, and character. With his strong familiarity with U.S. universities, practical guidance, and essay support, he guided us smoothly through the college application process."

Bulgarian parents

"Dan's deep knowledge of small U.S. liberal arts colleges, plus his clear guidance and structure, helped us target the right schools, shape our son's profile, and already receive encouraging feedback from several programs."

Russian-American student

"Mr. Franch provided excellent support with college applications, essays, and scholarships. He prepared me for my Army ROTC mock interview, which boosted my confidence. I’d gladly turn to him again for future guidance."
