Sobre mim
Hello!
If you are looking for the best of the best--a dedicated, knowledgeable teacher with superior credentials, experience, and temperament, I am the one for you.
I am the right teacher for intermediate and advanced adult and young-adult students who appreciate a prepared and organized but still fun and relaxed approach to their language-learning process.
I have a Master's degree in English, certifications to teach from several states in the U.S., WI DPI certification in English as a Second Language and English Language Arts, and decades of experience teaching. I scored in the 98th percentile on the GRE in verbal reasoning and have learned foreign languages myself, so I know how you feel and the challenges you face. I am currently undertaking a graduate certificate in Instructional Design. I also currently teach English as a Second Language at the Technical University in Milwaukee, WI.
As a linguist, I can help you perfect your conversation. I am a grammar and style wizard, so if you need someone to help you with compositions, presentations, or dissertations, I am the person for you. If you are a person who enjoys creative writing, you will be happy to know that I have had short stories and poetry published in online magazines and my young-adult novel "Backbiters" was released in 2017 (you can see it on Amazon!), I have a New York literary agent repping my memoir in verse (also on Amazon now--"spoonfuls from an overeater," and I have published collections from other offers from all over the world. In other words, I can help you polish your creative pieces.
I have taught ages 5 to 70+. I have taught face-to-face and online. Besides my native language of English, I speak Spanish and some French and Japanese and a bit of Italian (and have done a bit of Mandarin study though I have not reached proficiency yet; Portuguese is next!). Regardless of your native language, I am willing to learn about it, so I can best help you learn English. Learning a language takes time and effort, but I can make it as fun and efficient as possible for you, using dedication, compassion, and effective pedagogy.
When I am not teaching, I have many interests. I read. I write. I love theater, art, and blues music. I swim, kayak, bike, run, and do yoga. I have to be active because I love to go to ethnic restaurants and cook ethnic food –- of course traveling to other countries to experience new cultures is the best! I also have an addiction to documentaries of all sorts because life is so interesting and a guilty pleasure of watching talent T.V. auditions. :)
Whatever your interests, needs, and goals, I can help you reach them by assisting you to learn accurate, useful, and beautiful English. Let’s start now!
