ESL lessons with highly experienced teacher. Conversation, grammar, writing, listening. Fun classes!
As a foreign language learner myself (I speak 5 languages and am learning #6), I know how hard it can be for Second Language Learner to master the language. I have a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics for teaching English and a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics for teaching Spanish, a TEFL certification and I am also certified to teach bilingual students at elementary level. My classes are fun, communicative, and you'll be using your English since the very first class.

About Miriam M.
Hello! My name is Miriam. I currently work as a bilingual elementary teacher. I work with kids whose first language is not English, so while learning their core subjects (Math, Science, etc), they also need to learn English. I also teach English to adult learners in an awesome program sponsored by my school district. Before that, I worked for nine years at Berlitz International in Mexico City, teaching English and Spanish as a foreign language to adults.
I believe the best way to learn something new is by using it as much as possible while having fun. And that's what I'm offering you: lots of opportunities to practice in a fun way. Whether you are looking to start a new language, brush up your knowledge, prepare for a test or just clarify doubts you got after practicing your new language on your favorite app, I look forward to meeting you and help you achieve your goals!
I have a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics for teaching English and a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics for teaching Spanish, as well as a TEFL certification which I obtained when I lived in Mexico. I am also certified by the state of Texas as a bilingual (Spanish / English) elementary educator. I am a foreign language learner myself having studied more than 5 languages, and that's what makes me understand thoroughly what you are going through in your language learning journey!
