I have years of experience as both an ESL instructor and as a librarian and hold masters in TESOL and Library Science. I have taught ESL/EFL to students of all ages and abilities, from young children to older adults. I am certified in ESL (K-12) and Library Science (K-12). I have taught ESL/EFL at a public school and at language schools(corporate and community), community colleges and universities in the United States, Japan, and Spain. I also have experience as a language lab coordinator for a number of years at a college, having teachers and students integrate technology into language learning. As for my experience as a librarian, I have mainly worked as a school librarian in the K-6 setting but also some at a public library.

I would welcome the opportunity to tutor students in ESL at all levels and ages. I would consider tutoring students in other subjects as well.
