Experience
I have been learning foreign languages all my life including Korean, Chinese, Spanish and French. Therefore, I am able to empathize with my students and relate to the struggles they face as they learn English. I also know that learning a foreign language can be disheartening at times, so I realize the importance of encouragement, commendation, and an exciting and fun approach to learning. Over the past six years, I have taught a variety of English courses both in person and online. I have experience teaching individuals and groups, in personal and classroom settings.
Teaching Approach
I pride myself in creating a learning environment that accommodates the needs of my individual students while still promoting a high quality education. I strive to have an energetic and creative approach when teaching. In addition, I am dedicated to developing personal relationships with students by being patient and having open communication. Learning should not be dreary, but inspiring. I believe it is my duty as the teacher to inspire my students to pursue learning.
