Michelle: Berwyn tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a very passionate licensed Spanish/ ESL educator who has been teaching for 5 years in both public and private sectors, urban and rural. Furthermore, I am fully bilingual, native in both Spanish and English. I am open to tutoring both Spanish/ English language learners and have no preference. I believe that communicating in different languages opens doors for us and would love to help you become a more well-rounded and cultured individual. As stated by Nelson Mandela : "If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart."


I received my BA in Education from St. John's University with an emphasis in Spanish. I later traveled to teach abroad in Medellin, Colombia and obtained my MA in Learning and Teaching Processes in a Second Language from Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana. Since I believe that educators are life long learners, I dream of receiving my PhD in education in the near future. I am always researching trends and strategies in order to fulfill my students needs.

I am an open-minded, dedicated and goal-oriented individual. In my free time I really enjoy exercising and being active. In addition, I am a bookworm and a music lover. I love meeting new people and engaging in good conversation. However, my ultimate reward is seeing my students develop their language skills.

I hope you find this information helpful and that we are a good match to begin learning together!
