How did you get started teaching?
I've always excelled in English courses in school so I applied after graduating college for an English teaching program abroad. That begun my love for helping others with the English language.

I've worked with students ranging from age 8-16.
However, I can teach adults as well.
Anyone who is needing of my help is welcome to begin lessons with me.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I'm very fond of Christmas. It's a tradition for me to always watch holiday and Christmas movies around that time. My favorite holiday movie at the moment is "Jingle Jangle."
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Anyone who is needing of my help is welcome to begin lessons with me. I'm very detail oriented but also very patient. The time a student needs to improve will always be taken into consideration. Remember I'm here for you and you got this ;).
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Through my experience, I've found that students respond positively to talking about their interests. Relating what their studying to them on a personal level can really engage the student in the material more. Therefore they and I can identify their needs and make a plan to help them tackle each one until they gain more confidence in their (speaking, writing, listening) skills. Usually students perform better in classroom tasks with this method.
