About Me

Hi, I'm Sara! I love helping learners of all levels improve their English!
I'm from the United States, so I'm a native English speaker with a neutral American accent. I currently live in Central America, so I also speak Spanish at a C1 level. I have 5 years of experience teaching EFL (English as a foreign language) both online and in the classroom.
I teach a wide range of English courses from complete beginner to advanced: reading, writing, speaking, test preparation (TOEFL, IELTS, iTEP), editing, whatever you need! I adapt every lesson to each individual student’s level and goals.
I try to keep my lessons fun and incorporate games, pictures, and a variety of interesting and relevant materials. I love teaching and learning languages, and I know how frustrating it can be to learn a new language.
Most important to me is I want to help build your CONFIDENCE! I'm a very patient and supportive teacher. I believe that we can all do whatever we set our minds out to do.
You’re welcome to send me a message with any questions. I look forward to talking to you soon!

My trial lessons

During our trial lesson, I will get to know you as a student. We can discuss your learning goals and interests. I'll assess your current level of English and introduce you to some materials we may use in class. You'll also get to know me as a teacher and see if my teaching style is a good fit for you, so feel free to ask questions! I look forward to meeting you~
