As a career educator with a BA in Education, an MA in Reading Specialization, a Level 5 TEFL certification and over 25 years of classroom experience, I offer a level of expertise that goes far beyond casual conversations. I am a retired teacher who assist adult learners in achieving true fluency, confidence and precision in the English language.
Whether you are an international professional navigating an English speaking corporate environment or looking to refine your pronunciation, I tailor my instruction to fit your precise goals. Because of my background, I do not rely on rigid, one size fits all lesson plans. Instead, I treat our sessions as an educational partnership, analyzing your specific linguistic needs and building custom frameworks that respect your time.
My teaching philosophy is rooted in evidence-based practices, combining foundational literacy science with communicative language teaching. My approaches are highly analytical, practical and results oriented. In addition, we look closely at phonology (the sound system of English) and morphology (word parts and roots). This approach is incredibly effective decoding complex vocabulary and improving reading speed.
Language is meant to be used, not just studied. I use authentic, real world materials, such as business articles, academic journals/papers, and/or manuals as our curriculum. We focus on active production, ensuring you can immediately apply our lessons to your daily life or career.
I look forward to helping you unlock the next level of your English fluency with the patience, insight, and strategy that only a lifetime of teaching experience can provide.
