Teacher Carol

Profession: English as a second language teacher
English Language Instruction
One year as a volunteer with the Learning Source, a part of Front Range Community College in Colorado. I taught in various classes from very beginner, level 4 and level 6 classrooms. Classes were both in-person and on a Zoom platform.

Interests: I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Laboratory Technology and worked as a Medical Technologist. When our children were born, I chose to stay home and teach them. Reading was a weak subject in our family. Through teaching our children reading and other subjects, I developed a love of teaching. I have a TESL certificate and hope to continue teaching students English in the future. This past year I volunteered in Adult ESL classes at a local community college to gain experience as a classroom teacher. The classes were both in-person and on a Zoom platform. In addition to general English, I have an interest in teaching medical terminology to student wishing to work in the health care profession.

Some happy events, some sad ones. But that is how life is. My husband passed away from a stroke, so I am now single. But on a happy note, I now have 8 amazing grandchildren. I just decided to write a short update rather then rewrite my entire profile. Just know that I am now 65 years old, which you can tell I have aged from watching my video. lol I have missed getting to log in and speak with my amazing students and am excited to be back. I am looking forward to meeting new students and possibly some old ones as well. Hope to chat with you soon.

I love to travel, I'm an outdoors person and am obsessed with nature. I have 3 amazing adult Son's and 7 beautiful grandchildren. I have wonderful memories and experiences that I have gathered throughout my 60 years of life including traveling, taking cruises, taking trips to the mountains as well as the ocean, beautiful lakes, camping, experiencing new cities and their cultural events like play's, concerts and yes I've even been to several rodeo's lol. I love growing my own vegetables and have many fruit trees on my property. I love animals. I really enjoy riding my bike every day and love swimming as well as skating. I also enjoy taking pictures of nature.

Education: Even though I don't have a teaching degree I have been a tutor and had jobs all throughout my career that required me to teach and train. I also have 60 years of life experience that I can bring to the table.
