I'm an academic who genuinely enjoys teaching, both kids and teenagers, and even college students. I'm passionate about helping people understand anything and everything.

I'm TESOL Certified, and a former Kaplan Test Prep Teacher.

I also have years of teaching experience, teaching a wide variety of subjects to everyone from toddlers to PhD candidates.

It is important to mention that I do have quite a lot of experience teaching special needs kids. I raised a little girl and taught her everything from the alphabet and numbers to life skills. I also taught her how to cook. I know each situation and diagnosis are different, but I do come with a lot of experience in that arena.

Science has alway been a passion and an hobby of mine, and students generally find my enthusiasm for the harder subjects helpful.

I am TESOL Certified and have taught the TOEFL and IELTS Exams for Kaplan Test Prep.

I am qualified for a wide array of topics, and if I'm lacking in a qualification you'd like, please ask me about it, and I will either take the qualification test or tell you that I am unable to instruct you in this area. Please feel free to ask any and all questions!

One of my Bachelor’s degrees is in English language and literature. I enjoy teaching disparate topics and authors, such as: Ernest Hemingway and Boccaccio. I’m well-versed in many genres and love to help students truly discover the magic of reading.
Reading

Reading

I’ve taught little kids how to read, taught special needs kids, and adults at various levels. I feel it is important to read along with whatever books or poems you are studying and we can discuss it/them, together. I’ve also spent time working on reading aloud with clients and helped them with their pronunciation and understanding of the text.
TOEFL

I earned my TESOL certificate in 2006, and began teaching right in Sevilla and Madrid, Spain. I taught at multinationals like KPMG, Repsol, the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, and Iberdrola. Lessons were both in person and online.

A vocabulary is an absolute must. A well-developed vocabulary helps students to better articulate their thoughts. I enjoy helping to develop clients’ vocabulary and enjoyment of reading.
