- In 2019 I taught ESL online through VIP Kid which helped seal a passion for younger learners.
About Me
As an undergraduate, I began to see a huge need to help the international community within our city learn and understand English to help provide a foundation for a better future. I first began helping fellow university students by being a conversation partner and later into teaching basic classes for the refugees in our community. In 2020 I completed the CELTA certification and began working at a language school in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Since 2020 I have taught young learners and have helped them develop a passion for learning. I take a learner-centered approach and try to make the language-learning process as engaging as possible. I want to see students make their learning process their own. While at this language school, I saw I could better help my students by completing an M.A. in TESOL. I completed that degree from Biola University in May of 2023.
Hobbies & Interests
I enjoy long-distance running, especially in the mountains. I also enjoy other forms of physical fitness such as CrossFit. My family and I love playing disc golf together.
