As an avid learner and adventurer, I love sharing my knowledge with children, teens and adults alike. Teaching, to me, is about learning how my student learns, understanding their strengths and challenges, and adapting my skills for their best outcomes, in a way that is both fun and comprehensive. My degrees include an AS degree in Architectural Technology, a BS in Healthcare Administration with a minor in Psychology. I am also completely my Masters in Instructional design, specifically related to accessibility for online learning.
I have worked in several countries and three continents teaching English as a second language.
I am fluent in French through study and immersion in France, and I love sharing the language and culture with my students, whether for school or because they want to travel.
I am certified as an ESL (English as Second Language) teacher and Enseignant de franais langue trangr (FLE) to teach French as a foreign language.
I have developed an evidence-based program that is engaging and interactive with which I have successfully taught several teens and adults conversational French, grammar and translation.
I volunteer as an advocate for individuals with neurodiverse challenges and mental health needs, and in my spare time I enjoy art, cooking, photography, and walking.
