Liz E

Hi! My name is Liz and I'm from New York City. I am a native English speaker. I have been teaching for 20+ years now at primary schools, and I started teaching English online this past spring. I love it-- I love being able to get to know people from around the world, learn what their goals are, and then plan a path together to reach them.

Last year I moved to Spain, so I'm also learning Spanish. This helps me to be able to put myself in the shoes of my students, and it makes me a better teacher. Learning a language is challenging, and understanding what it's like from the student's point of view allows me to create interactive, engaging activities and lessons for my students, without putting them in positions where they might be likely to shut down. We all need to be comfortable in order to learn well.

I have a Master's Degree in Education with a focus in Literacy and Language. I have teaching certifications in NY in both Childhood and Special Education. I also earned my Level 5 Teaching English as a Foreign Language certificate last year. I am a qualified and experienced teacher, and I would love the opportunity to support you or your child on your journey!

If you choose to learn with me, you can be sure that I will make every effort to get to know you, to be prepared to teach you, and to adapt as your needs or goals change. These are your lessons, and they will be designed for you.
