About Me

I'm an incoming graduate student at Columbia University, originally from New Jersey. I speak English and Spanish fluently. In my 5 years of teaching experience, I have taught English, Spanish and Math to a diverse range of students, including young children ranging from 3 to 12 years of age, high school students and adults, from the United States, Latin America and Asia. I have experience with one-on-one lessons (both online and in-person) and with groups in a classroom setting. Because of my diverse experience, I am accustomed to adapting my teaching based on the level, learning styles and personalities of my individual students. I am very patient and especially love working with shy students in helping them out of their shells. My classroom is a safe-space in which students can feel at ease to ask questions and practice whatever it is their struggling with, without being afraid to make mistakes or feel criticized. I believe that learning should be a fun and engaging experience both in and outside the classroom, but understand that for some students it is not. My goal is to change that for those students, by creating a warm environment in which they can feel absolutely comfortable. I earned my Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certification in 2018.
