I am a recent Bachelor of Science in English from Central Michigan University. I also have my certifications in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and East Asian Studies and I am looking forward to assisting and teaching those willing to learn English! I am currently in Kalamazoo, MI!
Tutored foreign students up at Central's English Language Institute for two years! I also have tutored on-and-off in both Japanese and English. Interned and observed students in a few Public High Schools in the States and have taught several lessons in English literature and composition. I also have taught in an education club named the 'Council of Future Educators', or (CoFE) for short, teaching kids between the ages of 6 and 12.
