Steven Drape’s Summary
I am currently involved with running my sports fitness group, KBS Systems, which is a small, but growing international martial arts organization.
Over the past 25 years, I have taught English, Communications and Business courses to a wide range of students , from elementary to post-graduate levels, as well as scuba diving and martial arts courses.
I am a freelance writer, with more than 10 articles published in magazines and journals, and I hope to have a book published in the near future.
I have managed language schools in Taiwan in the past, and I have designed, implemented and run immersion programs for English-language study.
I have also owned a scuba diving shop in the Philippines, and have been teaching PADI scuba diving courses since 1998.
