Greetings! My name is Jessica. I have tutored students online and in-person for over 10 years. These hundreds of lessons that I lead, in addition to the skills that I gained teaching in classrooms, make me an excellent tutor. I can confidently write this because students whom I've tutored have moved forward to succeed in their respective subjects.

This is especially the case because my lessons are tailored to my students' exact needs. I know exact needs because I invite prospective students to a FREE 20-minute session with me, to start. It is during this time, that they detail exactly what they want out of a tutor and out of lessons. I offer free advice after listening to these details. Then, I allow the students to choose me as a tutor, or not. If they do, I already have information to craft the first few lessons for them.

Another aspect that my students find helpful is that I speak 3 languages, in addition to my mother tongue of English. These languages are Spanish, Arabic and some French. Certificates I earned include TESOL, TOEFL and CELTA. Lastly, a Masters Degree in International and Community Relations is my most recent academic recognition.

I welcome you to take lessons with me; an experienced, patient and organized tutor! ~Jessica

I know the experience of learning a new language as a teenager and as an adult. I learned Spanish as a teen in Mexico; Arabic in my 30s in Syria and Jordan. Lastly, I learned French in my 40s in Switzerland. So I, myself, have faced the challenges of being understood; comprehending grammar and maintaining confidence while speaking another language. I can help YOU because I developed techniques to help myself with these. I welcome you to join me for a lesson...

I have 7 years of experience preparing students for the USCIS interview. I have prepared groups of students. These days I work online one-on-one with persons preparing for the USCIS interview. My expertise is in honing in on the right questions to ask my students based on what answers they wrote on their application. My second expertise is how I teach for my students to remember the answers to the 100 Civic Questions. All those whom I have tutored are now American citizens.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

I am delighted to see how my wife has progressed so much after taking just a few hours of tutoring. Before the sessions started, I thought it would take a miracle for my wife to pass the USCIS interview. However, now I firmly believe passing the exam is within reach.
