Hi! I'm Leland. I graduated from the University of California, Davis with a BA in Linguistics. During my studies, I had a emphasis on Education concerning Second Language Acquisition learning, and Child Language Development. In short, my interest is in working with kids and teaching English. I have been a music instructor in my early years, and I absolutely loved it. I have also traveled overseas to Taiwan for two months, where I served as an English Teacher for an elementary school located in the rural southern party of the country. Therefore, I have gained the ability to be flexible, adaptable, build close relationships and assist students confidently. I find the most effective method to teach is to be interactive and give positive reinforcement! I want to make sure my students feel comfortable and enjoy what they are learning. The reason why I am aiming to be a teacher is because I know how teachers make a difference in students' lives, and the impact it carries. Therefore, being a pillar for a student's academic success is the greatest accomplishment for me!
