In this one-time class, ESL students will receive private lessons with a native English speaker.  I am a certified classroom teacher with a Masters Degree in Literacy Education as well as TESOL certification.  I've had classroom teaching experience since 2008, and online ESL teaching experience since 2017.

You can choose a curriculum based class, or conversational class with a list of topics to choose from. My curriculum covers conversation, sight words, phonics, fluency, letter sounds, and comprehension using fun seasonal themes.

My curriculum-based class is designed for all level (beginner - intermediate) learners. After our initial meeting, you can choose to have ongoing classes with me (I offer 25 minute or 45 minute once per week sessions) and I can design a plan, adjusting my curriculum to meet your child's level and needs. You can check my availability schedule, or send me a message and tell me what day and time you'd like to have a class, and I can see if it can be done.

Here is an example of some of my weekly ongoing curriculum concepts and themes (subject to change, I will send a message 24 hours ahead of class with the theme and concepts if you would like):
