Personal information
Bio
Hello! I am a certified teacher who has been teaching learners ages 3 - 18 for the last 12 years. I started teaching preschool, as the lead teacher, before teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) for three years in an elementary setting and one year at a middle school. Afterwards, I transitioned to teaching online after becoming a mom! I have taught English to learners from all over the world. During my English classes, I've had the privilege of teaching over 5,000 students during approximately 15,000 classes, and accumulated over 2,000 parent followers! For the last three years, I have had the privilege of teaching for some amazing organizations where I have taught various subjects including language arts, science, geography, book clubs, writing classes, and animal classes too!
My Bachelor's degree is in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood Education. I also have a Master's degree in Classroom Technology. I am an ESL Specialist and also hold 120-hour internationally recognized TESOL and TEFL certificates.
I find my kind and upbeat personality allows me to connect with my students and better engage them in my classroom. I believe when learners feel more comfortable and welcomed in their environment, they will become more active in their learning! I love connecting with my students as they begin to express themselves more freely in class and take their learning to the next level!
When I am not teaching online, I am homeschooling my son! I enjoy spending time with my family, and taking care of my little ‘zoo’ - 3 dogs, 4 guinea pigs, 2 hamsters, and many fish! I love swimming, and cheering on my son at his various activities!
Thank you for taking the time to learn about me, and I'm excited to begin learning together!
