I have been living in Boston for almost seven years. I am originally from Maine and went to college in Ohio. I love to travel and learn about other cultures. For that reason I love working with international students and kids and adults who are passionate about other cultures too. I can speak some French and Spanish. This summer I completed an immersion program in Spanish at Middlebury College and had a blast. I would love to meet some native Spanish speakers in the Boston area. I have a lot of experience with ESL, as I received a Master's in teaching it from Simmons College. However, I much prefer tutoring over formal classes. I also really enjoy helping people with writing and would be happy to go over essays for school. Although most of my recent experience is with adolescents and young adults, I enjoy working with young children also. I have a niece and nephew who are three and five, and I was also a mentor to two children in Roxbury. While in college, I tutored at a local elementary school. I am eager to help anyone who has the curiosity to learn! I am especially interested in language learning, as I understand the challenges associated with this.

I have college level experience teaching writing, especially to non-native English speakers. The last book I read was The Girl with the Pearl Earring. I enjoy biographies and historical fiction. I also enjoy reading The Economist, The New York Times, the Boston Globe and other journals and magazines. I have also studied French and Spanish. I attended a liberal arts college,... Read More

ESL/ESOL

I have a Master's in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from Simmons College in Boston, MA. I have taught at two universities in Boston, Northeastern and Showa (a Japanese school) and OISE, a very well-regarded language school. I prefer tutoring to teaching because I find the students are more focused and we can develop a better relationship and concentrate on the areas the student needs most. I have mostly taught writing, conversation, test prep, and a little bit of business English... Read More
