About Me

I am an English teacher with 15 years of experience teaching English and reading in elementary schools, language institutes, and now online. I have a BA in Spanish and International Studies and a TESOL certification from Arizona State University. I am from the east coast of the US, but have been living in central Mexico for 15 years. I have a 9-year-old daughter who you will likely meet at some point during our lessons! I love doing yoga (I teach, too!), playing games (Rummikub, Exploding Kittens, puzzles, Sudoku- you name it), reading, and being a foodie (Mexican food is AMAZING!!).

Besides teaching all of the usual English stuff (grammar, conversation, reading skills), I REALLY like to help students with AMERICAN PRONUNCIATION (I am trained in the International Phonetic Alphabet) and JOB INTERVIEWS. So if in 2023 you are ready for a career change or want improve your accent, I'm your teacher!

***For the price of a class, I'll help you UPDATE YOUR RESUME, website or other professional content in ENGLISH!

I will share a bit about myself and would like to learn more about you! I will also show you some of the authentic English material that I use in my classes.
