If you are looking to improve your English in a way that feels practical, engaging, and tailored to your goals, I offer online lessons designed around you. I am a native English speaker with professional teaching experience and a background in Cultural Anthropology, and I work with both individuals and professionals across different levels.I have experience teaching English as a Foreign Language through the Peace Corps in the Dominican Republic, where I design lessons for students with diverse needs, learning styles, and language backgrounds. This experience has taught me how to adapt quickly, explain complex grammar clearly, and create lessons that feel relevant to real life rather than abstract exercises. Whether you want to improve your speaking confidence, refine your grammar, or prepare for professional communication, I shape each session to match your priorities. My training in Cultural Anthropology informs the way I teach. Language is not just vocabulary and rules, it is also culture, context, and communication style. I focus on helping you understand how English is actually used in conversation, work environments, and everyday situations. This makes learning more intuitive and useful beyond the classroom. I also speak conversational Spanish, which can be helpful when clarifying more difficult concepts, especially for beginners. At the same time, I aim to keep sessions immersive so that you build confidence thinking and communicating in English. Lessons are flexible, online, and designed to fit your schedule. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable practicing, making mistakes, and improving steadily over time. Whether you are learning for work, study, or personal growth, I am here to support your progress in a focused and encouraging way.
