Hello!

I love to work with people who want to improve themselves. Learning a new language is difficult and I will always be patient, kind and positive. I think one of my strengths is that I have learned a second language and am working on my third one, so I understand the difficulties and some of the struggles that students have while learning another language.

I am interested in many things and am always willing to try something new. I love nature, animals, especially cats, farming, gardening, cooking, sewing, knitting, hiking, camping, archaeology, and traveling. I read mainly fantasy and mystery novels, as well as young adult novels for my work as a librarian and teacher in a 6th -12th grade school. I speak and read in Spanish, but I am currently studying Modern Greek, so I can communicate with people when I travel to Greece again in the future.

Specialties

Teaching Style

I am very flexible and do not have a lesson plan in mind unless I have worked with the student a few times before. When I meet a student for the first time, I ask questions and listen to what motivates their study of English. I also assess the students' speech and notice where they may be struggling. Then, I know how to help them.
