I’m a US native, living in France right now. I'm a NeuroLanguage Coach and I love to combine coaching tools with language learning -- it's so exciting to see how much quicker the progress can be. The intersection of mindset skills, learning, and neuroscience is really fascinating!
I also love taking long walks, doing yoga, and reading for relaxation. I love animals of all kinds and having good conversations with people from all over the world. I hope to talk with you soon!

Résumé
Education
2016 - 2017
120-hour TESOL Certification
School of TESL/Seattle Pacific University - Seattle, WA
This was a tough course that included onsite and online classes. I also did nearly 20 hours of teaching practice in an adult ESL community college course -- this gave me huge respect and admiration for non-English speakers who are learning the language.
1980 - 1984
BA in English
University of Virginia - Charlottesville, VA
UVa's English Department was ranked #2 in the US while I was there. I received a great education with some of the best teachers in the country. They gave me a love of language and learning that I try to pass along to my students.
