Book a trial lesson with me! This is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and see if we are a good fit. I hope to see you soon! :)

With my lessons, I will help you speak English like a native. I find that my students are most successful in learning when we have a balance between conversational practice and structured learning.

Speak English Like A Native

If you are looking for English lessons for your child, book with me! I love providing a fun, engaging learning atmosphere to help your child become fluent in English. I include lots of stories, games, pictures, videos, crafts, and more to create the best learning atmosphere possible.

Fun English for Kids!

One of the best, most effective ways to become fluent in a language is through natural conversation practice. If you are looking for mostly speaking practice, these lessons are for you!

Conversational English

This certificate, which I obtained from TEFL Fullcircle, required 40 hours of studying the principles of TEYL, including: general development and learning in children, second language learning in children, teaching the four language skills to young learners (speaking, reading, writing, and listening), and the extensive benefits of using storybooks with young learners.

To obtain this certificate, I took an online course with TEFL Fullcircle, which required me to study 160 hours worth of material, including the principles of teaching English, how to teach all ages of learners (specifically young learners), how to teach to all levels of learners, teaching grammar, vocabulary, & pronunciation, teaching all four language skills (speaking, reading, writing, listening), teaching in a classroom environment, teaching one-to-one, planning, and assessment.

I am well-equipped to teach English online, because this certificate required me to study 40 hours worth of material covering the basic principles of online English teaching, the approaches to online teaching, mastering the use of online technology and tools, familiarization with various teaching platforms, facilitating successful learning, and approaches to overcoming common challenges while teaching online.

I earned 60 university credits during my high school years, many of which went towards an Associate's Degree in Zookeeping Technology.

This is a program for high school students who test ready for university classes. I went through this program, tested out of high school, and obtained 60 university credits.

Over the past 18 months, I have gained invaluable experience in teaching English as a Second Language online. I have taught over 600 lessons to students of all ages and abilities, including small children, students learning English for work, students learning English to live in America, and much more. I have developed a unique method for optimal learning, which includes a mixture of conversational and structured practice, with lessons designed specifically for each student.

As the owner of my own online store on Teachers Pay Teachers, I create, develop, and sell digital printable educational resources to teachers around the globe. One of my store's specializations is ESL/EFL resources and lesson plans.

Working as an Environmental Education Intern at Lums Pond State Park, I had the opportunity to educate people of all ages and backgrounds on the beautiful nature surrounding them. I helped run a large variety of educational programs, covering topics such as animal species found in the pond, tree identification, monarch butterfly habitat/migration/conservation, kayaking tours, and much more. I helped people find their passion for the natural world around them.

While pursuing my degree in Zoo Keeping Technology, I completed 700 hours of volunteering in the Education Department at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. In my role as a Junior Zoo Keeper, I spent much of my time speaking and presenting to Zoo guests, educating them about our animals. I gave talks to groups of all sizes and ages about our animals' care, their anatomy, and our Zoo's role in conservation.

I spent three summers as a volunteer at my local library. I was a part of multiple library programs during my time there, including: Summer Reading Program, Reading Buddies (reading books with young children), and general library duties.

While attending Colorado Springs Early Colleges, I was chosen to be part of our school's National Honor Society. This prestigious group was in charge of carrying out service projects in our community, such as food drives for the homeless.

In my final year of middle school, I was chosen to be part of a program called WEB "Where Everybody Belongs". In this program, I helped 6th graders have a smooth transition into middle school. Our WEB group (all 8th graders) spent time with the kids during their first week of school and checked in on them throughout the year. We helped them do homework, talked to them about their transition, showed them around the campus, and led them in some fun games to help them get to know each other.

This program was an in-depth exploration of all elements needed for a high-quality, well-rounded, and immersive English as a Second Language education for children.
