I am a Georgia certified teacher in the fields of Spanish and ESL with over 20 years of experience teaching children and adults at all levels of language proficiency. I earned my BA at Emory University in Romance Languages, majoring in Spanish. I spent one year of my university career studying in Madrid, Spain for full academic credit. I earned my MS in Applied Linguistics and Teaching English as a Second Language at Georgia State University with a 4.0 for the degree. I have taught English privately as well as in public school, adult education programs and as a community volunteer. I make learning fun, focusing on ways to make language useful, memorable and meaningful as you learn. In my teaching experience, I have learned ways to make studying time productive and efficient, so I can help you with study skills.
My favorite hobby is sewing and quilting. I have years of experience sewing clothing and home decor items. I have taught children and adults sewing skills ranging from clothing construction and quilting to machine applique, use of a commercial pattern, and accessories sewing.

• ESL/ESOL

  I am in my fourteenth year of teaching ESL in K-8 public school. I hold a Masters degree in Applied Linguistics and Teaching English as a Second Language. I have taught adult learners of English in community programs as well as private institutions and as a tutor. As a teacher, I have conducted professional development classes for my colleagues on the most effective methods for teaching students whose first language is not English. I have had experience teaching refugee children from Africa, children of visiting academics, recent adoptees and immigrant children. I have taught adult students preparing for advanced degrees as well as foreign business people. In short, my knowledge and experience cover many areas in the field of ESL. I feel extremely well qualified to tutor in this area.
