ESL learners are welcome to join in and improve their English skills while having fun through games. This class is designed to help students build conversation skills while learning new vocabulary. Students will be encouraged to interact with one another to build their comfort level socializing in English. Games will include scavenger hunts, role playing, "Would You Rather," collaborative stories, and more. Prior to taking this class, student should have at least a basic knowledge of English greetings, phonics, and letter sounds. Class topics will be lead by the teacher, but discussions will be based upon the input of the learner. Learners are encouraged to speak and if they are able to, use complete sentences to expand their conversation skills. They are also encouraged to use their creativity, laugh, and have FUN speaking in English with each other!! :) Ms. Sarah holds a TESOL Certification from Arizona State University in addition to her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the City University of New York (Hunter College). She has taught English in-person to children and adults in Latin America and Africa. She has been an online ESL teacher since 2016 where she has taught English to students in China with over 3,300 5-Star reviews (screenshots of reviews available upon parent request). She also mentors new ESL teachers and trains them in techniques such as scaffolding, modeling, TPR, and building student independence.
Learning Goals
Students will build English vocabulary, work on using more complete sentences, and develop their grammar skills. Students will be encouraged (but not forced to) socialize with their peers to develop more of a working knowledge of the English language.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello current friends and future friends!
Welcome to Ms. Sarah's virtual classes! I am super excited to share my passions including dance, world travel, music, writing, theater, and more with your children! My typical classes are high energy and intended to build skills, increase confidence, and have fun.
I graduated with honors with a double major in Psychology and Communications with a minor in Music from The City University of New York--Hunter College. I studied in Argentina at La Universidad de Mar del Plata and I hold a TESOL Certificate from Arizona State University.
My experience includes both in-school and online teaching, particularly as an ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher over the last four years and as a dance teacher for about ten years. As an ESL teacher, have worked with thousands of foreign learners, guiding them to high achievement with their English skills. I've created and utilized many tools and techniques to increase student output and improve their written, spoken, and reading skills. I also work as a mentor for new online ESL teachers. I was also who helped build the English skills of students at a local school in Livingstone, Zambia in Africa. I have taught and can speak both Spanish and Hebrew as well.
I am a trained dancer with experience holding classes in ballet, jazz, contemporary, theater, and hip hop. I studied and trained my whole life as a dancer. I danced with companies and in shows in New York City. I have also taught dance at schools in New York City, abroad in other countries. I hold both personal and virtual dance and movement classes with the company I created in my area. I ran the dance department at a day rehabilitation facility for special needs adults and at a school for the blind. What is my philosophy behind teaching dance? Dance is an art form. It is a creation of movement used to tell a story. My classes are constructed with the aim of building the student's confidence and providing a safe space for their own exploration. Classes are meant to be challenging, but very fun!
Fun Fact: Upon graduating from college, my big goal was to hit "30 before 30!" I have traveled the world, meeting so many different people along the way, as I made it my mission to see 30 countries. I am looking forward to meeting all of my future friends who live around the USA and around the world.
I am so excited to see you soon in my classroom!
