With a strong foundation in education and a background encompassing diverse professional roles, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the field of adult education and business English. My journey as an educator has spanned seven years, and I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of learners, particularly focusing on adult learners seeking to enhance their English language skills for professional purposes.

Teaching Expertise:

My journey in education began as a high school social studies teacher, where I honed my teaching skills and developed a deep understanding of language acquisition. In this role, I had the opportunity to facilitate language acquisition among non-native English-speaking students, utilizing a variety of teaching methods and techniques to make the learning process engaging and effective.

I am proud to have extensive experience in designing and delivering tailored lessons that cater specifically to the needs of adult learners in the realm of business English. This includes improving their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills within a professional context. My approach emphasizes practical, real-world language use, equipping adult learners with the skills they need to thrive in business settings.

Teaching Methodology:

Throughout my career, I have excelled in implementing innovative teaching methodologies, such as task-based learning and communicative language teaching. These approaches prioritize practical language application, ensuring that adult learners can immediately use their language skills in the business world. I place a strong emphasis on real-life scenarios and authentic materials to create an immersive language learning environment.

Additionally, I integrate technology into lessons, using educational software, online resources, and interactive tools to provide adult learners with engaging learning experiences. This approach not only fosters language acquisition but also aligns with the demands of the modern business world, where technology is integral.

Certifications:

I hold a TESOL/ESL credential from Colorado, underscoring my expertise in teaching English as a second language and English language learners. This certification, coupled with my CLD endorsement, demonstrates my commitment to using research-based instructional strategies for culturally and linguistically diverse students. I've been recognized for my ability to create inclusive and culturally responsive learning environments.

Professional Development:

To stay updated with the latest trends and research in TESOL and business English, I actively participate in professional development workshops and conferences. This commitment ensures that my teaching methods remain cutting-edge and aligned with the evolving demands of adult learners in the business sector.

My background extends beyond the classroom, encompassing roles in the financial sector, community organizing, and politics, which provide a well-rounded perspective on the multifaceted needs of adult learners in the business world. I look forward to utilizing my unique blend of skills, expertise, and dedication to empower adult learners to excel in business English and achieve their professional goals.
