I am a university-level Spanish Language and English writing coach. I have a B.A. in Languages from Yale University, and have taught at Yeshiva University, Columbia University and the New York College of Medicine. I wrote my own book on Beginning Spanish Grammar for medical students at Einstein College of Medicine, and I developed Spanish language curriculum at New York's Latin American Workshop for a number of years.
My broad knowledge of Latin American culture has landed me consultant positions on projects for a number of large media companies. I like to enliven my Spanish and English classes with materials from some of these projects such as music, poetry and art.Mostly I have taught adults, but I have also tutored high school students privately, helping them refine their essay writing skills for the SAT and college admissions.Most of all, I just love teaching! And I get good results with my students because I help to simplify and codify concepts so that they can make fast and permanent improvement.
PLEASE NOTE: My cancellation policy is now 48 hours in advance otherwise the class will be charged to you. I prefer to schedule weekly meetings at a regular hour.
PLEASE NOTE ALSO: My Saturday and Sunday teaching hours are in Central NJ.
Please feel free to write me with your questions and goals. I hope to meet you soon!
