    (7)
    Hello! I have taught ESL and French since 2007 at the university and high school levels and have been tutoring each of these languages as well. I have been teaching ESL at UC Davis since 2012. For my graduate degrees, I studied second language acquisition. If you choose to learn with me, I'll bring the benefit of a diverse education and a lot of experience teaching people from all walks of life.

    I took Abram's English research project class when I was doing a summer program at UCD. He's a great teacher, always very helpful, passionate, and you can tell how much he loves to teach. I always looked forward to his class because he knew very well how to create a comfortable and fun learning atmosphere for all international students.

    Abram is an excellent instructor. He was a great resource for any questions that I had, and explains concepts in a clear, concise fashion. He is passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. I highly recommend taking a course with him!
