Summary

I am an incredibly motivated and passionate teacher with experience in delivering engaging and inspiring lessons. I help the students attain a strong understanding of the language through personalizing lessons based on their individual needs. I believe in creating the classroom to be a student centered environment that focuses on student engagement and participation rather than lecturing.
