About
Jenny: |
Hi!
I am excited about this opportunity to provide my expertise and enthusiasm my students.
Since graduating from Stanford University in 2001 with a BA in History, I've worked as a freelance writer and editor. In addition to serving as the editor of three published books, I have also written articles for magazines including AAA Westways Magazine and for Web sites including AOL CityGuide San Diego and Tan Envy. I am also a highly skilled proofreader and editor and a very creative wordsmith.
With respect to my teaching resume, I earned my teaching credential from San Diego State University in 2007. I've taught ESL (English as a Second Language) for 2+ years, for both the Berlitz Language School in San Diego and the Humana Language School here in Atlanta. I currently teach English to a group of Korean students, which I love! I hope to earn my CELT certification sometime next year. I also teach an SAT Writing, Reading and Essay class to high schoolers 2 nights a week.
I adore teaching and I have a knack for it; most recently, my ESL students informed my boss that I am the best ESL teacher they've had, something I'm very proud of.
Of additional interest - I studied abroad in Florence, Italy, and am quite fluent in Italian!
As a teacher, I'm very encouraging, upbeat and enthusiastic. I take to great lengths to make sure my students understand the material being taught.
Thank you, I look forward to working with you.

Jenny's Experience:
ESL/ESOL
|
I have worked as an ESL instructor for about 2 years. I worked for 1 1/2 years as an ESL instructor for the Berlitz Language School in San Diego, California, and I am currently working as an ESL instructor for the Humana Language School in Atlanta, Georgia.
I am also a credentialed teacher in English and Social Studies, and I took coursework in teaching English as a Second Language. My student teaching took place over 2 semesters in a middle school and high school in San Diego in which the majority of students were English language learners.
Most recently, my students at the Humana Language School informed my boss that I am the best teacher they have had yet, and I am pleased to report that 3 students switched to my class this semester as a result of my excellent reputation.
Thank you!
