Alicia
Hello!
Hello! My name is Alicia! I am from the United States and have a neutral, American accent. I live in the state of Iowa. It's a state in the central part of the United States, and it is agricultural and rural. I was raised in a multicultural home where both English and Spanish were spoken, and I am fluent in both languages. My hobbies include spending time with my family, cat, and friends. I enjoy learning about other cultures and its people, food, and history. I enjoy cooking, listening to music, and watching movies, series, and sports.
I am a qualified teacher with a TEFL certificate and have seven years of experience working with English language learners in both American public schools and online. I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds. When I worked in American public schools, I supported English learners from elementary to high school. I supported English learners that had immigrated to the United States, so I understand the struggle of learning a new language and trying to adapt to a new culture. As an online teacher, I have met with thousands of students from different countries, and have worked with mainly adults and teenagers. I also worked in human resources and a trainer for three years.
