职业: Freelance English Language Specialist
English Language Instruction, Education
I create lessons that are motivating and inspiring, establish a positive learning environment that offers support and guidance to all students, and provide feedback that encourages my learners to develop their language skills and learning autonomy.

兴趣: My teaching journey has taken me across the globe, with experiences living in Venezuela, China, Korea, and Saudi Arabia, giving me a deep understanding of the challenges faced when navigating life in a different language. I have taught at prominent institutions in the United States, including the University of Florida, the University of Pennsylvania, and Portland State University; in Korea at Sogang University and Korea University; in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia at The Institute of Public Administration; and at various middle and high schools affiliated with the Shanghai Board of Education in China.

I have supported learners across all levels—from beginners acquiring foundational language skills to near-native speakers refining their English for professional presentations and business interactions.

As an online tutor, my specialties include professional and informal conversation practice and accent reduction for those aiming to perfect American English. I also assist students in preparing for the iBT TOEFL exam by focusing on strategic approaches, vocabulary enhancement, and grammar mastery to achieve strong results. My one-on-one sessions are customized to fit each student’s learning style and needs.

I am dedicated to creating lessons that inspire and motivate, fostering a supportive environment that promotes growth and confidence. My feedback is designed to encourage learners, helping them develop their language abilities and become independent in their learning.

Please feel free to contact me to learn more about my lessons and how I can help you reach your language goals.
