About Me

I have loved teaching English here on Verbling for the past 4 years and it gives me great joy to be able to share my language with the rest of the world. In 2016 I got my CELTA teaching certificate in Medellin, Colombia and have taught business employees and executives as well as stay at home moms, grandparents and occasionally kids too! I am a passionate yoga teacher and outdoors enthusiast and love bringing my practices of stress management and wellbeing to the classroom whenever possible. I can teach from the book to work on vocabulary and grammar, as well as bring outside materials and topics to have fun and interesting discussions. I work to create a warm, personal, classroom environment and I am truly grateful for the amazing connections I've made with hundreds of my students. ❣️

-Want to work on verb conjugations, vocabulary or practice for an interview? Let's do it!

-Want to discuss current events and learn new phrasal verbs and idioms? Perfect!

-Want some real advice on stress management, physical, mental and emotional health? Happy to help!

Take a look at my schedule to book a class time that works well for you or message me with any questions or concerns you have. I look forward to working together on whatever your goals are. See you in class! 🙂
