Hello,
My name is Shannon and I live in North Portland. I graduated from Lewis & Clark College in 1996 with a BA degree in Foreign Languages. I speak, read and write Spanish, French and Italian. I have lived in 5 different countries and therefore I am nearly fluent in all of these languages. I am also a CELTA certified ESL teacher. While in Italy and Spain, I worked for 2 different language institutes teaching English to elementary, intermediate, advanced and business English students. I am a die-hard grammar enthusiast, excel in spelling, and I possess an aptitude for mathematics.
I am very fun, yet laid back, and I get along with almost everyone I meet. My adaptability and patience are sure to please! I am always overjoyed when my students discover new methods of learning, and I love keeping track of their progress.
I look forward to getting to know you and to helping you learn.
Shannon
