About Adam
Hello! I am an International Baccalaureate (IB) educator with dual teaching certifications in the US and Japan and a Master's degree in Education.
Over the past 15 years, I have taught English Language and Literature in international schools across the world. During this time, I realized that many highly capable students struggle with texts and essay writing not because they lack ability, but because they do not understand how teachers and exam boards actually grade their work.
I transitioned into private consulting because I am passionate about demystifying the academic writing process. I love helping driven students achieve that "lightbulb moment" when they finally understand how to decode a complex prompt, structure a compelling argument, and present it in their own words.
I am currently based in Japan, which provides a fantastic timezone advantage for my American students, allowing me to offer lessons during your afternoon or evening hours.

I do not believe in passive tutoring. Instead, I use my 15 years of classroom experience and take an inquiry-based, highly collaborative approach using your syllabi, upcoming assessments, and past papers to build practical, lifelong skills tailored to your individual needs. You’ll learn to think critically, structure your arguments logically, and use the terminology examiners / admissions officers are looking for. You can expect actionable feedback after every single session.
My 50-minute lessons are conducted via high-quality video call so that you can learn from the comfort of your own home at your own pace. They’re designed for ambitious high school and International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) students who need measurable, academic results and a strategic advantage in their coursework or university admissions.

私はアダム先生の元生徒で彼にIBDP English A Language and Literature を教えてもらいました。
彼のスタイルは、先生からの一方的な授業ではなく、他の生徒と話し合ったり、自分で考えたりなど、主体性を鍛えられる授業でした。具体的には扱った作品についての分析や、それから読み取れる世界的な問題などについてクラスで話し合うような授業がありました。彼の授業のおかげで、英語の単語力や作文力などが特に上がりました。Adam was my IB English A Langlit SL teacher. He is friendly, patient, and kind. He is always willing to discuss things with his students, and I found his detailed feedback to be very helpful. Not only are his explanations are easy to understand, his practice questions also helped me improve quickly. I ended up getting a 6 thanks to him!
I have worked with Mr. Holland on various occasions, mostly on my academic writing and proofreading my manuscripts. His support and expertise have been a big help, and they made a real difference in getting my papers published.
He worked through the language with me, including the field-specific expressions, and helped me express my ideas and my way of thinking much better. For me, as someone who is not a native speaker but is still expected to write like one, this has meant a lot.
I highly recommend Mr. Holland to anyone who wants to excel in their professional English, especially academic writing, in any field.View more recommendations
