About Me

Hello, and thank you for visiting my page! My name is Amanda. I am a certified English teacher and a dual-master's graduate. I have been teaching English for 3 years. I have two master's degrees, teaching certifications, and I am very personable and culturally sensitive. I teach students from around the world, from diverse cultures and each with unique language goals. I truly care about my students and I take great pride in helping them reach their English language goals.

I love teaching English and I love learning about different cultures and sharing ideas, so Verbling is the perfect place for me to combine these interests!

My Teaching Style:
My teaching style is both professional and relaxed. I like to make sure my students feel comfortable. They don’t have to worry about making mistakes. This is important because in my lessons I want them to talk! I love listening to my students' stories and helping them sound more natural!

In our lessons, I can help you with pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary acquisition, and of course, sounding more like a native speaker! We can have very structured lessons with set materials and goals, or more relaxed lessons, in which we focus on daily conversation.
If my students have any questions or ideas for how they would like to be taught, they can bring them to me and we can make a more personalized lesson plan!

My Interests:
I like traveling and meeting people from different countries! I also enjoy learning new languages, yoga, and nature hikes! My favorite country remains Italy, as the atmosphere and rich history are really incredible.

I love teaching English, and I greatly enjoy helping my students succeed in meeting their English language goals, and I look forward to teaching you and helping you reach yours!
