Hello! My name is Maya “Mimi”, and I am an experienced educator with more than 17 years of teaching experience in Orange County Public Schools. Throughout my career, I have worked with students from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of learning needs. I am passionate about helping children, teenagers, and adults strengthen their English skills while developing the confidence to communicate effectively.
Whether you or your child needs help with English lessons, reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, school assignments, or homework, I can provide personalized support to reinforce the material learned . I also offer support with SAT and ACT English and reading test prep.
For English Language Learners and adults, I focus particularly on conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, listening comprehension, and everyday communication.
My goal is to create a comfortable environment where students can practice speaking without fear of making mistakes and gradually develop greater fluency and confidence.
I have extensive experience working with English Language Learners and understand that every student learns differently. I adjust my teaching style, pace, and activities according to each learner’s strengths, challenges, and goals.
As a fluent English, French, and Arabic speaker with moderate communication skills in Spanish, I can communicate with and support students from different backgrounds more comfortably . This ability helps me build connections
I also welcome resources, materials, and suggestions that students or parents would like to incorporate into our tutoring sessions. If you or your child has a particular textbook or assignment to work on .
Whether you need help with schoolwork and homework, preparation for the SAT or ACT, improving English fluency, or simply becoming more comfortable speaking English, I would love the opportunity to work with you or your child.
Let’s make learning English a positive, productive, and confidence-building experience!
