Experience
I am an encouraging, enthusiastic instructor who connects well with people of all ages and cultures. I have extensive experience working with students of all ability levels. I have helped students improve their IELTS and TOEFL test scores to earn acceptance into American universities. I have assisted adults to improve their language skills to acquire new professional heights. I have even assisted a University of Colorado PHD candidate with his dissertation and thesis defense recently. I really enjoy working one-on-one with others to help them achieve their full potential. I work hard to design lessons and materials that are focused on each of my client's needs. I find a lot of personal satisfaction seeing that I can help others achieve their goals and witnessing their successes. I am a very relatable, flexible, and eclectic person that isn't afraid to get creative with my lessons. I strongly believe that life's greatest treasure is the connection between people and that we're all here to help one another live out our dreams. I have traveled extensively both domestically and internationally. I have visited 23 countries and plan on visiting a lot more! I have lived in Costa Rica and Japan for study and work programs and have gained so much perspective and wisdom from these experiences.

Hobbies
I love being outdoors and connected to nature. I particularly enjoy hiking, snowboarding, cycling and playing tennis and ultimate frisbee. I have recently taken up yoga and have seen drastic physical and emotional benefits. When I'm not outside, I'm either reading or watching documentaries on Netflix. If you need any documentary recommendations, don't hesitate to ask. I'd love to share my favorites!
