About Me

Howdy! Hoi! Hallöchen! ¿Qué onda? My name is Rachel, I'm 28 years old and from LA. I graduated from university with a BA in anthropology. At 23, I traveled to Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I completed my teaching training (CELTA). After, I moved to Berlin, Germany, where I worked at language schools with students in person and online.
I now live in Mexico City where the sun shines daily and the lifestyle is relaxed. I can also recommend the best vegan tacos in town ;)Me as a Teacher
I have over six years of experience teaching English to learners of all ages, levels, and backgrounds. My main goal is to help you build confidence. It's okay to make mistakes!
I'm very patient, so you can take your time with me. I am here to help you learn and we will have fun. I try to speak with a "neutral" accent so you can understand me more easily :)
I've worked with students of ALL ages and ALL levels so I'm happy to begin wherever you're at!
I started learning German at 15, Dutch at 25, and Spanish at 27. It's never too late to start learning a language and the most important part of learning is having a good teacher who you can trust and feel confident with.My lessons & teaching style
**Because my daily teaching schedule consists of multiple back-to-back lessons with no break in between, I will now be ending one-hour lessons 3-5 minutes early. That means our lessons will be 55-57 minutes long. I appreciate your understanding <3 **
During lessons, you will speak A LOT. And the good part is, we will talk about you and your favorite topics :)
Our lessons will be easygoing, enjoyable, and fun. You will finish feeling good about yourself and you will recognize your improvement quickly.
I will also provide you with materials such as worksheets, articles, etc. to help you improve in all areas of the language - speaking, reading, writing, and listening. It's all important!My teaching material

My students enjoy a relaxed atmosphere where they can express themselves freely and build confidence in their language use.

Teaching InternshipDuring my teaching training, I taught two groups of 6 adult Thai students at the beginner and intermediate levels.
Preparation for these lessons included creating original content and materials, such as lesson plans, worksheets, and tests.
This teaching was audited by a CELTA instructor and I was given valuable feedback after each lesson.

Rachel is an excellent teacher. I like lessons with her so bad, and I always wait for them. Especially I like the home assignments she gives me and our classes' mood. She is a vibrant and scrutinized person, and I am glad I found her.
