Each week, we'll embark on a new literary adventure, exploring topics such as the wonders of the sea, fascinating sea creatures, land and air animals, the beauty of friendship, and the vibrant world of colors. Please review the book list below:

Classes will repeat the same cycle every 8 weeks. 

Our class format remains consistent, ensuring an enriching experience every time. Students will immerse themselves in the habits of proficient readers, participate in creative activities, and indulge in lively discussions about the books we explore. While there is no required reading homework, I encourage students to read outside of class at their leisure, to cultivate the habit of reading regularly. In order to facilitate discussion and a collaborative environment, a minimum of three students are required to proceed with the class.

Whether you're just beginning your reading journey or already an avid reader, there's always something new to discover and love within our carefully curated selection of books. Join us and let's embark on a journey of imagination and discovery together! 🌟

Hi there, Thank you for stopping by! My love of reading developed at an early age, where I read anything and everything I could get my hands on. These days I enjoy reading texts about self-development, business, beloved picture books and metaphysical texts. 

Because I loved to read, I studied English literature and acquired a BA in English and Spanish, and an MA in English Literature. I also have a number of certifications for the instruction of  English including, English Language Arts and Reading, English as an Additional Language, as well as an EC - 6, Generalist endorsement. I also hold the Swiss, International Baccalaureate endorsement for English Language Acquisition.

My teaching experience spans a great deal of the world through the medium of online learning, while my practical classroom experience includes teaching in schools in America, Turkey and Thailand. 

Students who study under my tutelage usually see significant progress, as I meet students where they are, and builds their confidence and abilities in all of the English domains reading, writing, listening, and speaking. In this way, my students are able to achieve their learning goals in any academic setting.
