💥 A relaxed yet focused atmosphere
I teach all ages and ability levels. My past and current students have been between the ages of 2 and 50 years of age. Most of my students find me relatable, patient, and full of energy.
Every lesson will include:
🔆 grammar instruction and correction
🔆 new vocabulary with clear explanations and examples
🔆 explanation of idioms and common phrases
🔆 daily conversation
TRIAL LESSON
A trial lesson is a time for me to assess your current level and objectives, and explain to you the best teaching method to employ for optimal results.

All students are individuals and I adjust each class according to the student's needs. For this reason, siblings may not share a trial class and must get permission from me to share a regular class time.
If you need to cancel a class, please let me know and cancel the class more than 12 hours before the start time. Classes canceled with fewer than 12 hours' notice cannot be refunded or rescheduled. For this reason, I will wait for the full lesson time for students who do not inform me that they are unable to attend the class.
RULES FOR CLASS:
1- Do your best
2- Listen to the teacher
3- No eating during class
4- Take the class on an iPad or computer (please no phones)
5- 50-minute classes cannot be split between siblings.
