Hello! I'm an experienced speech-language pathologist and adult ESL instructor who is passionate about helping English language learners build confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing for everyday life.
For more than 30 years, I've worked as a speech-language pathologist, and my "encore" career has been teaching Adult ESL and U.S. Civics. I work with learners from a wide variety of cultural and educational backgrounds, using my expertise in language development to help students strengthen practical communication skills they can immediately apply at work, in their communities, and with their families.
I currently teach Civics and Government at a vocational-technical school district, where I prepare multilingual students to earn the Certificate of Attainment in Civics. This role has strengthened my ability to explain complex concepts in clear, accessible English while creating a supportive, engaging, and encouraging learning environment.
I believe every student learns differently and has unique goals. Whether you're looking to improve your conversational English, pronunciation, grammar, reading, writing, or prepare for the USCIS Civics Test, I'll tailor each lesson to your needs, interests, and learning style. My goal is to help you become a more confident, independent English speaker in a relaxed and positive environment.
