This camp will cover 4 major grammar and writing topics. Each day, we will focus on one topic. This means that I will present the material by interacting with each student. After that, students will be playing Gimkit games practicing the topic of that day. Here is the daily breakdown of topics: Day 1: Independent clauses Day 2: Dependent clauses Day 3: Sentence fragments Day 4: Run-on sentences Once students master these four topics, their writing will be much more sophisticated. Also, by learning about these concepts in such a fun way, their motivation for writing will significantly increase.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been teaching English to native and nonnative speakers for over 20 years in the US and abroad. My approach is called "Focus-on-Form", which means my classes are very communicative and interactive in nature, but we still focus on grammar, pronunciation, or vocabulary. The most important aspect of my class for me is to provide a comfortable and enjoyable environment for the students and develop affection towards learning English in my students.
On a more personal note, I live in San Diego, California, with my fifteen-year-old daughter, our two dogs, and a cat. We love the outdoors, and we frequently explore our beautiful parks and beaches.Reviews
