**PLEASE NOTE: This is an ongoing class, so students can enroll and start or stop at any time, and they will not be behind. 

This ongoing class offers you private lessons with a native English speaker.  I am a certified classroom teacher with a Masters Degree in Literacy Education as well as TESOL certification.  

I have been a professional teacher since 2008, teaching online ESL since 2017, and I have designed and created my own curriculum. I have experience with students from 4-18 years old, teaching beginner, intermediate, and advanced ESL. Also great for former students of VIPKid, Q Kids, Magic Ears & GoGoKid.

My teaching style is more laid-back, with a high focus on humor. I love to laugh, and I love for my students to laugh, be relaxed, and have fun.

This class is designed for beginner - intermediate learners that have at least 1 year experience learning English, but send me a message and we can design a plan and I will adjust my curriculum to meet your child's level and needs. I offer different kinds of one-on-one classes. Some are ongoing (for the same price; I can change existing one-time classes into ongoing classes in the same time slot if you would like), which is nice because you can can enroll and start or stop at any time, so that you don't have to enroll every week. I have 25 minute and 45 minute classes. You can check my availability schedule, or send me a message and tell me what day and time you'd like to have a class, and I can see if it can be done.

In each lesson students will practice 2-4 letter sounds and grammar concepts (including adverbs, compound words, conjunctions, etc.) with fun discussion and activities like reader's theater, tongue twisters, matching, games, etc. 

There will also be a different theme for each class to learn about and discuss (ocean animals, dinosaurs, nocturnal animals, etc.)

Here is an example of some of my weekly ongoing curriculum concepts and themes (subject to change, I will send a message 24 hours ahead of class with the theme and concepts if you would like):
