I am a retired Teacher of English and a Retired High School Principal. I completed my ESL Certification in July of 2015 for the purpose of continuing my teaching career after retirement. My goal is to move to Costa Rica and continue with my online students once I have relocated there. While living in Costa Rica I also plan to study Spanish.
Through my TESOL training and years of experience in the classroom, I have seen the importance of designing lessons to fit the needs of specific learners.
I focus on conversational and oral expression but also can help improve your reading comprehension. I will help you loosen up and get rid of your shyness and start speaking, boosting your confidence. I believe in learning by doing, and there is no better way to learn a language than start speaking it since minute one.
I like to focus on pronunciation while I'm teaching and my students have told me that they appreciate that very much. Whether I'm teaching grammar or conversational English, I feel that correcting any and all types of pronunciation problems is critical to the learning process.
I base my lessons on each student's needs. I have audio lessons for listening practice, have created exercises for reading comprehension, and will design activities based on you! I have recently published books designed to teach reading and vocabulary.
In regards to my methodology for language teaching, I enjoy applying principles of content-oriented teaching which are used in tandem with the direct method and other constructs of communicative language teaching styles (e.g. employing dialogues, role-play, and problem-solving tasks).
I am patient, creative and friendly. Many of my students tell me that I explain concepts more effectively than their teachers. I am available weekdays or weekends, days or nights, throughout the entire year. In addition to teaching in person, I also use Skype, FaceTime, Google Hangouts, Appear.in, interactive whiteboards, attachments (PDF, Word, Excel), and Slack, a remote desktop program.
Along with making an accurate diagnosis of my student's needs, followed by detailed planning on how to reach goals, I offer the following: 1. Detailed essay writing practice with in-depth details on APA/MLA formats for referencing, in-text citation, research, essay structures, grammar, organization, etc. 2. Most recent (actual) exams.
My classes are 30 minutes long / 4 times per week. These short classes are ideal for Business Professionals who are busy during the week or youngsters who have short attention spans. Having class 4 times a week allows the material to adhere better. In every class we practice drills aimed at helping with structure and pronunciation as well as correcting deep rooted mistakes.

Teaching is a passion. Out of passion flows ideas and creativity. Out of passion flows the desire to impact and influence the lives of the students that we encounter and students who come across our paths. Out of passion flows the deep interest to dig out the skills and talents that lie beneath the core of the students.
My teaching method is all about active learning-- I make sure my students create knowledge by using the information and tools I give them to construct deeper meaning that is contextualized and meaningful for them, and that they can easily remember!
I have a relaxed teaching approach. We will focus only on the parts that you wish to improve and then plan our lessons accordingly. I like giving small, short homework assignments to keep the student practicing lesson content for best results.
