Hello!

Hi, my name is Michele and I am currently from Arizona in the United States. I have lived and traveled to many states in the USA. I have also lived in Mexico. In both high school and college all of my friends were from around the world and for all of them English was their second language. I am at my happiest when I am teaching others and watching them learn and grow. I know learning a new language can be scary and intimidating. I want to help you forget about your fear and embrace your own talent!

I have a Master's degree in Social Work and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Anthropology. I have worked in the office with professionals, remotely on the phones, and even been around lawyers and the court system. I have taught kids and adults alike. I currently work in customer service. I love learning about new people, their cultures, traditions, and their lives. I like to travel to new places eat great food and enjoy cooking. I am also learning Spanish, as an adult, so I understand the challenges and fears that come along with that.

Teaching Style

I am a very patient tutor, with a calm and fun personality. I am here to create a safe and relaxed space where you can learn however you learn best. I can have fun and interesting conversations with you, to work on pronunciation and grammar. I can also play games, read articles, or any other activities you might enjoy if you are more of a hands on learner.
