About Me

While I was a student at the University of Oregon, I tutored international students at the University of Oregon American English Institute. I helped students with English conversation, grammar, essay-writing, proofreading, grammar, etc. After I received my BA in Psychology, I moved to Korea to teach English. In Korea, I taught a number of different subjects to everyone from elementary students up to executives for Samsung and Hyundai. I also spent nearly four years as a curriculum developer at one of South Korea's leading education companies. As a curriculum developer, I made learning assessments, teaching materials, textbooks, and lesson plans. I tutor in the following subjects:-ESL-Reading-Grammar-Math-Science... in addition to much more. While I enjoy all of these subjects, I especially love reading and grammar. There are a lot of different ways to approach teaching these two subjects and it allows me to be creative when I am thinking of lessons! When teaching, I think it is important for a teacher to make a good, solid connection with his or her students. Without a connection, its hard for the student to trust his or her teacher. I try connecting to my students by being open minded and honest. I am also optimistic by nature and enthusiastic about teaching which helps make students feel at ease when they are with me. During my free time I enjoy reading, cooking, watching movies, and making crafts. I am also a huge fan of museums, so you might see be perusing one on a rainy afternoon :)
