Hi! I’m Shea, your guide to confident and practical English! As a native Californian with degrees in **Nursing** *and* **English**, I uniquely blend **healthcare expertise** with **academic language mastery**. Whether you’re preparing for medical careers, casual chats, or cultural exchanges, I tailor lessons to your goals—backed by TEFL certification and a love for music, travel, and real-world practice. Let’s make learning joyful and purposeful! I am very excited to help anyone learn a new language. As a teacher, I want to see my students gain not only the practical skills, but also the confidence to speak in English. Based upon the student's end goal, I will incorporate music, current events, readings, and homework. I believe "consistency is key" when it comes to learning a foreign language. My lessons are relaxed, practical, and focused on helping you communicate with confidence. I focus first on establishing a personalized plan for each student, based upon individual goals. I start with an introductory lesson where I assess your skill level and the resources I will need to use to develop a lesson plan suitable to your needs. I am prepared to help you no matter the end goal. I also speak a little Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, so I understand what it’s like to learn a new language! I look forward to helping you reach your English goals while having fun along the way.

Shea is amazing! We talked about PRP and how to politely refuse clients today. She prepared so well for my specific questions. It was super helpful to learn the 'real' medical culture and communication style in the US.

Shea is an amazing teacher, she can tell what your level is and guides you toward your goal from there. Shea can spot subtle nuances in your speaking and she provides you key feedback to help you improve.

Great first lesson! Since Shea is a real nurse in LA, she gave me very practical advice about the US pharmacy system and insurance today. She is also very flexible and helped me customize a learning plan based on my needs. Highly recommended!!
