●I focus strongly on conversation. I am a bit of a “silly” teacher, which makes my students feel relaxed with the language and feel more comfortable taking chances with the language.
●I have taught ESL both in person and online to students in China, Vietnam, Morocco, Turkey, and Serbia. I currently teach Business English at a school called Bilingually, in Mexico City. My students are comprised of Managers from Google Mexico and PepsiCo Mexico. Though I have taught everything from basic English to children, to IELTS and TOEFL to teenagers, I feel most confident teaching Business English to adults.

I find that my students care mostly about feeling confident with communication and so my classes rely heavily on speaking. I cover a wide range of topics and introduce new vocabulary and useful idioms in each class. If I find that my students are lacking in a certain area, such as pronunciation or reading, we will gear the classes to fit those needs. I also like to show short videos so that my students hear a variety of accents and speech patterns. Occasionally, we will cover some basic grammar to reinforce any grammar rules where I see patterns of misunderstanding.
My ultimate goal is for my students to feel that they can communicate comfortably about a wide range of topics using native English language and idiomatic expressions.
