Native English speaker tutoring in Los Angeles for advanced and intermediate levels

Methodology

I am an artist, author and small business owner. I graduated from UCSC with a BA in Sociology and Latino Studies. While I did well in school and have always had a love for learning, I never felt that school was the right place for me because I was rarely learning what I wanted to apply in my own life. My goal is to not only improve my students skills in the English language, but to help them learn the language that will help them pursue their interests and find jobs that motivate them.

Background

I am an educator, author, artist and landscaper from the California Bay Area. I moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in entertainment while also continuing my landscaping business. I joined SuperProf so that I could teach English, art, and music in my spare time and share my learning experiences with other people who are following their dreams.
