About Me

I am a trilingual educator (English, Spanish and French) and enjoy when I can share a love of languages with my students. Face to face is a great way to learn and improve your language skills. I believe in being creative and fun. A student learns more when they are engaged and enjoying their learning experience. I have spent many years as a full time public school ESL teacher and now am ready to enjoy working more closely with my students as a private Tutor. On a personal note, I enjoy swimming laps in a pool for exercise. Another love is to take long walks at a nearby college campus that offers lakes, streams, forest, geese and turtles! Lastly a favorite hobby includes : mosaics (tables, hangings), origami, and cooking.

Q&A with Nancy

My teaching philosophy is to model, encourage and inspire. A student needs to see and hear correct language. Then they can imitate and practice until it becomes their own. I also feel that it is very important to inspire and encourage students to express themselves and to use the new information in a personal way so they can make it their own. A student needs to discover what their skills are and develop those talents. Only then can they feel pride and confidence to further their learning in a positive and exciting way.
