In this class, your child will build confidence in speaking and practice learning how to speak in different situations.

If you don’t find one that works, please send me a schedule request. If I have enough requests for a certain time I will do my best to offer the class. 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 I designed this class with the student in mind- I truly hope they have a wonderful experience. If it is not as you expected, please send me a direct message so I can help resolve the issue with you. 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 This class is 55 minutes in length to allow for time to really help and impact students. 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞/𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 All courses will begin on time as long as one learner is in the classroom. I always recommended entering the class 15 minutes before the scheduled time to ensure students resolve any technical issues, gather what they need, and mentally relax before class. ✔️Headphones & A Quiet Room or your natural learning environment will allow for the best learning experience. Please take the class independently to really allow you to connect, avoid external distractions, and immerse yourself in the experience. ✔️No One but the Student for Class: If it is possible, Please no family members in the room during class. If another family member is present, your child may attribute the confidence he gains to their presence instead of himself. Or he may behave unnaturally, or at the very least be distracted. This class is very intimate, and in order for it to have the intended effect on your student, please take the class independently. Thank you so much Recordings of the class are available after the class ends, and you are welcome to send me a message anytime. Thank you so much and I look forward to helping your child reach their speaking potential!

Parental Guidance
[A Quiet Room For Class]:
Please allow your child to take this class independently in a quiet room. This will help your child get the most out of the class:
- they walk away with 100% of the confidence (instead of somewhere inside of them attributing it to the presence of family member/someone else)
- background noise/sound from conversations happening in the background isn't distracting to them, the teacher, or the class (it's amazing how much sound microphones picks up)
*If your child requires your help to show their artwork, feel free to stay nearby but please make your presence discrete. Parents are welcome to watch the full video recording that is available after class. And of course, you are welcome to send me a message before class with any questions, or anytime after.
[ARTWORK SHARING GUIDELINES]:
*Students are allowed to share any artwork that fits the criteria below.
Please make sure artwork:
- is not secular by nature
- does not include any specific language, violence, or sexual content
- is not harmful to any particular group, culture
Thank you so much for adhering to these sharing guidelines by Outschool to ensure a safe experience for all students in the class. Please send me a message if you have any questions.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Story is the way that I learned how to write and speak. At about 10 years old, I had a blue diary that I would enviously flip through the blank pages and close and put back in the drawer. I didn't know what to write. Life soon changed that, as I started writing the day after I turned 11 when my dad died. When I was older, I started speaking about my story, and it equally changed my life. I’ve gotten to understand how, communicating about things meaningful to us- art, passion, or life changing events, not only develops the most important skills that a person could perhaps have- speaking & writing, but on a fundamental level, communicating about things meaningful to us changes the way we think about, look at, and experience life.
My work with children began 10 years ago at a preschool & daycare where I was tremendously lucky to witness the effect of relationship & connection on how we develop right from the beginning. 7 years ago, I began teaching English online to all ages of kids 3-18, now speaking to and experiencing thousands of children. 7500 1-1 classes in communication provided the opportunity to witness, test, and collect data on how connection affects learning in the classroom, and of course how connection affects communication. I ended up received double award-winning recognition in the ESL (English as A Second Language) industry as "Most Beloved Teacher" for the highest ratings in the company that I worked for at the time (Gogokid). I'm a Native English Speaker and hold a TESOL certificate. I have a double degree in Psychology and in Language Studies. Both my personal and professional life contribute equally to who I am as a human being, and who I am for children. And Who I am as a human being is truly who I am for children. It's an honor to meet you- I look forward to serving your child. Reviews
