Bio
I have a passion for learning and feel fortunate to be in a fulfilling vocation where I can share ideas and empower others to become lifelong learners.
I make an effort to understand and prioritize my student's concerns and learning needs. In addition, I use multi-sensory approaches that account for a variety of learning modes. Also, my graduate degrees in linguistics and reading have enabled me to teach native and nonnative English speakers, allowing for unique approaches to learning English grammar, vocabulary, and discourse/rhetorical styles
