This is an ongoing class for 1:1 tutoring in English. The class will be student-led, as the student will provide the content of his or her choice. For example, a high school student may want to read Wuthering Heights, but is struggling with some of the vocabulary or contexts. The student will read sample areas and the instructor will provide guidance and feedback. Alternatively, the student may choose English grammar homework that needs clarification through 1:1 tutoring. Or, a student might wish to pursue conversational English. The goals of the class are determined by the student during the first class. The instructor will review the student's goals with him or her on a monthly basis to establish progress and learning synergy. I can accommodate the following types of learning experiences and many more: --grammar correction --figures of speech --American slang (clean) --paragraph formation and structure --study of plot, comprehension, the intention of the writer --review of writing genre --punctuation --parts of speech identification and purpose I am an experienced ESL/EFL teacher, and I am precise, but friendly and cheerful. I will encourage but not embarrass my student. We will use some ice-breaker or get-to-know-you style questions at the beginning of each class to create a fun environment, and these topics will be chosen by the instructor. (I am also a student! Ms. Meg is actively learning Korean, which is part of my family's culture. So I know how it feels to learn!)
Learning Goals
Students will grow in confidence in reading, speaking and listening to English in a low-pressure, highly attentive environment.

Hi friends! Welcome to Outschool!
I am a parent, a seasoned social worker, a homeschooling mom, a business owner (more than one!), and a lifelong learner. I hold two university degrees, one in Social Work and one in Religious studies. I have also taken several counseling courses at the graduate level.
However, what I have discovered is that the richness of life cannot be bound by four brick walls. Each time I engage in something I love, or have great friends working along side me, I learn so much more. Some of the things that tick my tock are . . . road tripping in our minivan (sunroof open, pizza pretzel Combos and an iced coffee in hand), photography, reading non-fiction, canoeing, hiking, painting watercolors, growing veggies, tinkering with entrepreneurial finances and pushing my brain boundaries by managing my family's film/tv rental gear business. Oh--and we spend a lot of time Lego-ing in our home.
So why do I teach online? It allows kids to remain in their comfort zone at home, but take on big learning opportunities. One of my biggest joys is celebrating with kids who have overcome intense challenges with persistent encouragement. My philosophy of teaching is that we can do WAY MORE than we think we are capable of doing, but we flourish best when we have great cheerleaders on our journey.
I have nearly five years of experience as an online teacher, but I also come with a rich resumé of managing psychosocial conferences, leading small groups, tutoring individual students, facilitating support groups, teaching ESL to PK4 through adults (over 400 students total with 5/5 reviews) and teaching in brick & mortar schools (elementary and college level). I love variety. I love knowing that each child is born with a unique personality and gifts. I find it a personal adventure and goal to help kids build confidence by letting them discover their gifts and reframe their challenges in a safe and encouraging environment.
I believe children rise to the occasion when they are motivated by bite-sized, methodical successes. And YOUR child is next. Let me help your family by offering a safe space where we can learn together.
See you in the classroom! :-)
