Learn English by conversing and writing short stories about your life experiences! A structured storytelling, I find, is what most adult students enjoy as a way to grow their new language skills.

About Elizabeth

I have taught all ages of students. I am very patient--but do expect that learners build their skills over time by putting into practice what I teach. I think you will like the balance I provide in my classroom--a welcoming environment that provides you with structured experiences that help you succeed.

English

My goal is teaching students how to become comfortable speaking, listening, reporting, and writing in English. I am not here to teach you perfection; I am here to help you learn how to express yourself so others understand what you are saying and so you can understand and share what others tell you.

My tutoring sessions can be 1:1 or small group. You will learn by doing: First, you will participate in a short conversation that is based on a prompt (a structured, short assignment); then, you will share what you learned from your conversation partner; and finally, you will learn best practices--and practice!--how to write your personal experience.

In this way, you develop speaking, listening, reporting, and written skills that are based on real-life events. Many adults don't have the opportunity to share their life experiences because their work and family responsibilities take up all their time. This class is based on self-expression!

I am very down to earth. This means I recognize we are human and make mistakes. I will smile and encourage you! I will also trust that you will begin to put into practice what I teach you because when you do this, you will experience satisfaction. I have a college degree in English, and a graduate degree in teaching English. Also, my parents were both English professors! Even though I am a native speaker, I recognize English is a challenging language to learn--especially as an adult.

While this class is best for adult students who have been practicing English for at least two years, I can adapt the lessons for non-adults as well as students who have practiced English for a shorter period of time.
