Introduction:
I am an English teacher passionate about using language to break down barriers.
My name is Sarah and I am originally from Michigan, USA. I am a native speaker of English, and I have been learning Spanish for most of my life as well, so I understand what it's like to learn a new language :). I have several years of teaching/tutoring experience, and I have just returned from living in Colombia teaching English at the university level. I now live in San Diego, CA.
Teaching Specialty:
Most of my experience is with students who have an intermediate level of English and want to correct small mistakes in order to progress to an advanced level.
As a native speaker, I enjoy helping students practice their English through casual and formal conversation, spontaneous conversation as well as interview preparation.
Writing is one of my passions and I have taken many writing classes at an advanced level. I have a lot of experience editing student's written work in English.
