27 year veteran English Teacher is here to boost your skills and confidence in reading and writing English regardless of the assignment.

Background

I have been an educator for 27 years, and I have educated an estimated 3,500 students. My approach to teaching always begins with one simple assessment: understanding where the student's current abilities, strengths and weaknesses are versus where he or she needs to be in those areas. My job is to help the student fill the gaps. My approach is casual and amicable, but focused and goal oriented as well. I believe that people learn best when they set a goal for themselves and work toward achieving that goal one small step at a time. I like to build on students' successes and victories; even the small ones add up. Over time, students will notice growth in their confidence in speaking, writing, and reading. The positive results of my teaching have been impressive and documented. Last year, out of 127 students, most of whom were not proficient in English Language skills, only 2 did not show improvement. That growth occurred in only a matter of 8 months.
