I have an MA in Applied Linguistics from the University of Birmingham and had a Florida state K-12 ESOL teaching license from 2014 to 2019. With over a decade of university teaching experience at Yeungnam University (YU), I taught English and other subjects to students from 20 different countries. I also worked with adult learners from corporate and professional settings.
I have classroom teaching, small-group instruction, and one-on-one teaching experience with private clients. At YU, I helped operate the English Help Desk where students and faculty could arrive unannounced when they needed help with any academic English problem or question. I have extensive experience reviewing, scoring, revising, and polishing student and professional writing. I aim to identify the obstacle(s) and explain solutions in language that learners can understand and apply on their own.
I tutor ESL/ESOL/EFL, grammar, and writing. I inform students of the conventions of good writing while also helping them understand when and why good writers may choose to take license to break them. My background in education, instructional design, psychology, and performance improvement allows me to support students who need more confidence, smarter study habits, and a scaffolded approach to achieving their goals.
