Teaching and tutoring ESL was a career change for me 15 years ago. I used to be a writer and editor, and then I stayed home with my two (now grown) kids. I went back to school and got an MA TESOL and have loved every moment of my new(ish) career!
For twelve years, I have taught ESL classes at community college in writing, public speaking, and learning English through film. I enjoy helping students learn by using YouTube, TED Talks, and other authentic materials. Language is about communication. Whatever you want to express, whether written or spoken, I would love to help you with that.
I enjoy getting to know my students so that I can tailor sessions and materials to exactly what will appeal to each individual. When materials are interesting to a student, learning becomes a pleasure. My goal is always to achieve a balance between learning and enjoyment—without enjoyment, learning just isn’t fun!
Communicating in meaningful ways is what life is all about. I have the skills to help you express yourself, both in writing and speaking, so that people listen to you and read what you write. I hope you will let me help you improve your English language skills.
