Hobbies
I absolutely love spending time helping others improve writing and English skills. I have the communication skills and patience necessary to connect with students on a level in which learning is fun and productive. I have over 6 years of experience teaching students from 7 years old to 50 and up. I have taught in every type of environment from the most informal setting to university classrooms. I have helped students improve writing, reading and speaking skills from 7 year old students learning English as a second language, all the way up to PhD grad students. I truly love teaching and learning, and I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to continue this passion in anyway I can. Please let me know how I can help!
