    Develop your English Language Skills with a Cambridge Certified Instructor with 16 years experience

    Experienced ESL teacher of 13 years available for eager students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. I specialize in business and everyday English, typically use English File and English Grammar in Use books, and also have the following tools available to use during lessons: games, role-plays and newspaper articles for discussion and vocabulary practice. When you book lessons, please remember to provide a phone number and email so I can contact you before lessons to make a personal introduction and make sure you have all the necessary materials for your first lesson. Lessons are based on student interest and skill and it is important for the teacher to make a one to one contact to personalize and prepare your lesson. Thanks in advance and I look forward to speaking with you soon!

    About Erin R.

    (99)
    I have been working as a knitting and crochet teaching artist since 2010 and as an English as a Second Language Instructor since 2008. My lessons are always student focused and encourage you to practice the specific skill during the lesson while giving you the opportunity to ask questions and develop your skill set. Please note, all lesson times are subject to weekly availability. If you would like lessons at my location in New Jersey, purchase the lesson as 'online' and the exact location will be sent via email after purchasing lessons. Student lessons are done out of the public library near my location if you would like to meet me at my location. For security reasons, I cannot list my specific location on this public facing website. Please don't hesitate to message me about any questions in regards to this.

    Erin is a great listener and was able to meet me where I am in the process of learning crochet. I look forward to continuing learning from her.

    Our lesson with Erin was super fun! She came to us and tailored the lesson for our needs. After some practice we plan on scheduling some more! Thank you, Erin!
