About Me

InterestsWritingReadingHistory
Bachelor’s in English, 23 years as a paralegal, and active freelance writer—I blend real-world precision with academic depth. My expertise? Political-socio-economic analysis, historical narratives, and philosophical discourse. If you crave English that’s articulate, nuanced, and grounded in global contexts, let’s dissect headlines, literature, or your next cover letter together.
Me as a Teacher
With me, students continually progress into greater English fluency, comprehension, vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and structure. Lessons are tailored to each student's needs and goals, and focus on moving from simple to complex. During lessons I introduce new vocabulary, and correct grammar and pronunciation.
I give lessons in comprehending and appreciating literature, as well as in writing essays, non-fiction, fiction, presentations and correspondence.
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are individually and progressively structured to improve vocabulary, comprehension and structure in spoken and written English.

The teacher’a work is excellent. There is always a topic to talk about, she makes you different interesting questions and not only corrects your pronunciation, but also gives you new vocabulary to learn. Excellent!
