NOTE: I am currently on maternity leave.
I am a native English speaker from the West Coast of the USA. As a writing coach, I love helping students ages 7 through adult with hobby projects and academic/career pursuits.
I hold bachelor degrees in violin performance and humanities (a combination of literature, theology, and philosophy). I spent a semester studying at the University of Oxford, where I researched literature and played violin in their orchestra. I've also published a short story and presented literary research at a national conference.
I love traveling, listening to music, baking, meeting animals, and hiking!
Me as a Teacher
I have taught music lessons for the last 7.5 years, and I started teaching online in 2017. In addition to lessons on this platform, I also teach group English classes to improve kids' literacy through fiction. I love stories, so I was happy to help kids create their own e-books in an online summer camp! I also teach Sunday school and have volunteered as a tutor for after-school homework help.
NOTE: If you are booking an English lesson for a child, please message me with their age and approximate level beforehand so I can prepare relevant material.
My lessons & teaching style
I adapt my lessons for whatever works best for you! I enjoy talking with people during conversation practice, and I am happy to offer as much or as little feedback as you want. I also offer more structured lessons with worksheets, short stories, and writing exercises. My experience as a writing coach helps me help YOU with writing practice, and I am always happy to clarify any specific grammar questions you might have.
I believe that learning should be fun, goal-oriented, and fulfilling. I would love to help you reach your language goals with English!

Julia is so professional and friendly. I asked her to check my writing. She tried to understand the context and changed some sentences so much better, and corrected my mistakes with a clear explanation. I highly recommend her lesson!

Julia, I have no words to express my gratitude to you for being so flexible and for understanding my needs with the Italki sessions (for a job interview). Thanks a million for your support <3

This is a very very nice teacher. I have much fun with her. No matter how poorly my English speech is, she always smile an has much patience to me. That makes me feel more confident to speak English. Thank you.
