Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in English Language and Literature from Dickinson College
A native English speaker with a degree in English and Political Science and two TEFL certificates, I've been teaching English to beginning and advanced students since 2012. I also score the speaking sections of the TOEFL iBT, TOEIC, and the new TOEFL Essentials exams and have prepared many students to take the TOEFL as well as other international English exams.
I've taught thousands of hours of English to more than a hundred students over the past 11 years and consider myself an expert in the field. Some of my students have been with me for over seven years and have become like family. I enjoy watching their development and helping them achieve their goals. Reviews
