    About Bertha G.

    I am a chef. I've worked in a Resort, a Nursing home Kitchen, have catered personal parties and managed Asian Diners for the past 7 years. I have been in the Culinary field for 16 years and have an AS Degree in Culinary Arts. I have been instructed by Michelin Star chefs and have done Banquets to luncheons to Garde Manger to Asian Style cuisine. At home Cooking or fine dining in minutes is what you will learn with me as your instructor. I am especially skilled at using what I already have in the cabinet to make a decadent meal. Want to learn how? I teach methods of cooking so that you will always know how. Or...Looking to Learn English or even improve in the English language? Since I am TESOL Certified since 2019, I offer a fresh take to language learning because I love the challenge of learning new languages. I am currently fluent in 3 languages (English, Haitian Creole, Hindi), intermediate in 2 (Spanish, French) and learning 2 more (Telugu and Indian Sign Language). English is my mother tongue (or first language), so let me help you reach that goal of reading, writing and speaking in English. I pay particular attention to grammar and will make sure you pronounce words accurately. Get ready to be active and be silly sometimes, because no one learns without making a few mistakes. Lessons with me are no judgment zones. Be patient with yourself in learning English just as I will be and you'll see that each lesson, whether 15 minutes or 1 hour, will leave you feeling satisfied you booked. Don't have too much time to give? Book my 15 minute POP Lessons for something short and sweet, and still come out feeling invigorated for your next lesson(s). I emphasis practicing what you learn and changing your view on what you are learning, because learning to either cook or learning English takes a mind that is willing to perform new things and experiment with new concepts. Ready to start? Let's go!
