Hi, I’m Michelle, a certified teacher who after teaching for over 20 years recently retired. I have taught elementary, middle, high school and adult education. I have also taught in public and private schools as well as internationally. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of how learners from different backgrounds approach English, literacy, and communication.
Throughout my career, I’ve taught English, reading, writing, and ESL in classroom settings, small groups, and one-on-one environments. I’ve supported students who are brand-new to English, learners who struggle with grammar and sentence structure, and adults returning to education after many years away. My approach is patient and structured while providing engaging and interactive lessons. My goal is to help students build confidence as they improve their vocabulary, pronunciation and sentence structure to clearly communicate their ideas both orally and in written form.
I also believe that learning continues outside of our sessions, so I provide optional resources students can use to practice independently after our lessons. My goal is to help learners feel capable, supported, and confident as they strengthen their English proficiency and communication skills.
