兴趣: I always credit my mother for being my first and largest inspiration as a teacher. She was a highly creative and influential instructor for both kindergarten /1st grade and a variety of elective courses for community college students.
I think I have done well to follow in her footsteps and that I am a natural teacher because of her influence.
I'm comfortable working with all ages and all levels of English.
In the past, I have worked with a wide variety of students from toddlers learning their ABCs to professional doctors who want to give better lectures in English.
At university, I was a jazz music major with a minor in English. Since 1999, I have taught music, English, arts and crafts, cultural studies, sports and games, outdoor skills, massage techniques among other topics in settings ranging from schools, summer camps, on-line tutoring and special events.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Music Degree, two TEFL/TESOL certificates and one TEYL/TEFL-YL certificate. Currently I am pursuing a certificate for the Cambridge English program.
