Introduction:

I help people improve their fluency and confidence in English for conversation, work, and travel.

Welcome! I'm so happy you're here.

Education is one of my greatest passions. I have a master's degree in education and bring 5+ years of experience teaching English, both online and in-person. I spent 3 years teaching at a university in Medellín, Colombia, where I worked with students of all levels.

I am here to help you achieve your goals and feel comfortable and confident speaking English. I believe learning should be effective, supportive, and engaging—and we’ll have fun along the way!

I look forward to meeting you!

Melissa
