I have almost 20 years of teaching and private tutoring experience as well as a graduate degree in TESL/TEFL.

I was an ESL student myself, and I remember exactly what and how I wanted my teacher to teach me.

I have been an ESL instructor for more than 15 years.I am a very positive ,motivated and goal oriented individual.I love and enjoy working as an ESL instructor and helping my students to achieve their goals .

I earned my MA in teaching English as a second language and have worked with everyone from nearly fluent children to adult beginners. I am prepared to cater my lessons to suit whatever your needs may be! I am experienced in online and on the ground teaching at the university level and have worked with everyone from children learning phonics and the alphabet to adults learning academic English and research skills for PhDs. I myself have studied a number of languages, and I bring this knowledge to each lesson in order to address specific challenges a student might have. I look forward to starting a language learning journey with you! IF A TIME IS NOT LISTED AS AVAILABLE, PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE. I CAN PROBABLY ACCOMMODATE YOU :)
