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.
