English (ESL) with Edie S.

My name is Edie Sheeks. I teach English fluency and Philosophy lessons. I enjoy reading, walking, traveling, having dinner with friends. My household includes a large, greyhound-mix dog--my walking trainer!--and two tabbies (all three are rescues). Listening to music, walking by the sea, and being outside are part of my essential daily activities. As the daughter of a college Philosophy professor, I have been graced with many educational opportunities. Interacting with students, seeing them as individuals, and co-creating a learning environment is an always-unique experience. Though I have had the opportunity to do many things work-wise, including practicing law, teaching at a college, mediating, teaching is my default option. And this is especially true now that I can easily connect with students on the other side of the world from my home office. Finally, it's clear to me as a teacher and a former student that we learn best when we're relaxed, when we enjoy the learning interactions. So, truly seeing a student and enjoying the learning process are my goals for every class.
