Silver Spring, MD ESL Lessons

I have taught ESL for over three years. I hold a TEFL teaching certificate. I have taught in multiple classrooms throughout Europe. I can teach to children or adults. I think English is a language growing in popularity and in the professional world it is a very important language to know.

I teach ESL to beginner - advanced students.

I've been teaching English since 2002 and my students have gone on to develop travel abroad, participate in and win different competitions and contests, and build their careers. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to communicate in it in everyday life and as time goes on you'll be able to make new friends and study and work in it. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

I teach Persian Farsi, ESL, Belly Dance and Middle Eastern Dance, Persian Cooking & Baking, Mediterranean Cooking, Persian Gulf style cooking and Seafood( Based on Traditional styles and my own recipes).For the Language Teaching,I teach all different levels and all different skills such as Speaking, Listening, Writing, Reading as well as DLPT format of Farsi, Dari, ESL, Spoken Tajik Languages , and Cultural bonded Language expressions and more. :)

My lessons are customized to address the specific needs and goals of the student. My first lesson starts with an combined informal ( introduction and conversation) and more formal assessment (pronunciation, grammar, writing, etc.). I also use methods to meet the specific learning style of the student and rely on a variety of sources. For example, I often start with a pronunciation drill focused on a specific area and/or address a particular grammar area before having the student give a talk, engage in a role play, or work on piece of writing. Moreover, I work with students on specific communication goals (conversational English; formal presentations; chairing meetings; resumes and cover letters; interviews; reports and all other types of writing-- including essays, research papers, and legal writing; and test preparation, such as TOEFL and IELTS.

I am a Certified Interpreter in five languages with the US Defense Language Institute Monterrey, California.

English is my third language but I didn’t stop here. I taught my mother and so many others tips on how to learn this language faster.
If you speak a Romantic language, even better; I’ll find “anchors” to help you connect the dots and allow you to find English words faster.
If your native language is not among the Romantic ones, don’t despair (though my assumption is that you stopped reading by now). Mentors are critical, and I’ll teach you ways to find balance, consistency, and discipline in learning English as a Second Language.

I've taught French and English to students aged 5 to 75! I have done so at universities, in several schools and for the US Congress. Not only can learning a language be great fun, it can be great for your career! Even if we don't start with a language in common, we will work to identify your goals and tailor classes within a proven framework. Contact me and I will help you on your journey!
