About Me

Hello! I am a certified, professional English teacher from Washington D.C., with over three years of experience. So if you learn with me, you're learning from an experienced native English teacher! My classes focus on real-world, NATIVE English. Depending on your interests and goals, lessons may include:

*Conversational fluency*
*Grammar foundations*
*Topic/Theme based vocabulary*
*English idioms, expressions and phrasal verbs*
*Business English for professionals*
*Travel specific English*
*Resume/CV development*
*Interview preparation*

With these tools, we can quickly improve your conversational confidence, and also work on important language foundations that will help you learn and use English for life! I love my job and the opportunities I have everyday to make a difference in the lives of my students. I have helped my students pass interviews, apply English at a new job, build businesses, travel to English speaking countries, and much more! I am always available to answer questions, address concerns, and offer advice or additional materials to my students that want it.

When I'm not teaching, I study Spanish, train for marathons, write music, practice Yoga, and write essays and journal entries about the world around me!

I cannot wait to start working together, so come check out a class!
