About Me
italki teacher since Sep 8, 2014Me as a Teacher
I found my passion for teaching while in college when I quit my part-time job at a restaurant bussing tables. I followed the advice of a friend, who was a tutor, and started tutoring students for some extra cash. I tutored students in my major, which was Spanish, and eventually began helping English Language learners, as well. I found it to be such a rewarding experience; I loved it! I have worked with native speakers of Spanish, French, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Arabic and I have found that everyone has a unique perspective. Since graduating with my Bachelor's degree in Spanish, I have had wonderful experiences teaching English in schools in Spain & France. My lessons & teaching style
I enjoy one-on-one tutoring the most, as I prefer the one-on-one experience with individual students. I am available to help students with conversation practice or language homework, including grammar and proofreading.
If you are interested in lessons with me, please be sure to fill out the "Contact Teacher" form on my profile, so that I may better tailor your lesson to your needs and interests. Also, if you have a particular topic in mind that you would like to study, please ask me!Certificates
