English (ESL) with Jeanne P.

Hello! Hola! Bonjour! Здравствуйте! Are you ready to take your English to the next level? Of course, you are! And I would love to help you do that. My name is Jeanne and I'm from Cleveland, OH, and I speak with a neutral American accent. You can feel confident that my fifteen years of experience teaching ESL and pronunciation mean that you're in good hands. My Bachelor's degree is in Spanish and I have a Master's in Education with a Graduate Certificate in TESL plus a Certificate in PESL (or Pronouncing ESL.) I've also trained as a nurse, and I was a small business owner, and now, I'm studying to be a yoga teacher, so my background is diverse. I love connecting with my students on a professional and personal level. In addition, yo hablo español, et un peu de français, и я учу русский so I understand the challenge of mastering a foreign language. My favorite area to teach is pronunciation and accent modification because you need to feel confident that people will understand you when you speak in English. I can also help you with grammar, presentation skills, writing emails, oral reading... and much more! I like to have fun when I teach so that you can feel relaxed when learning and so learn faster. If you're a very serious person, then I may not be the right teacher for you (unless you want to learn to be less serious!) So what are you waiting for? Sign up for some lessons and let's get started! NOTE ABOUT SCHEDULING: in order to get the most benefit from your classes, I recommend scheduling classes 2 to 3 times a week for 30 to 45 minutes. I enjoy having a flexible schedule and I offer flexibility for my students as well.
