Hello students, my name is Andrew. I'm from Texas by way of Chicago, and now living in Colombia. I am learning Spanish as a second language, and I love helping students achieve their goals in and outside of the classroom. I have over 10 years of experience as an English Language Arts teacher helping not only struggling readers, but those on the AP level as well. My experience also reaches out into corporate America as an executive an entrepreneur. My family and I love to travel, experience new adventures, and help others along the way. I'm also a husband, and father of 4!

I hold dual bachelor’s degrees in Urban Planning and Economics, a Master’s in Theological Studies, and am completing a Master’s in Educational Leadership. Certified in Speech, English Language Arts & Reading, Social Studies, and ESL, I specialize in helping secondary students improve their reading skills. Additionally, I am an author, avid reader, and am passionate about guiding students to reach their full potential.

In my classes, students enjoy themselves while working hard to improve their academic skills. With extensive experience teaching children online, helping students across the globe, I know how to keep lessons engaging and dynamic. I am a patient and supportive teacher who values each child’s ideas, opinions, and success. I genuinely listen to my students and ensure they feel proud of their achievements.
