⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧Hi! I’m Gerry, and I’m here to help you stop overthinking and start speaking. With first-hand experience learning a new language, I know how hard and intimidating it can be. ⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧I am a teacher at heart but I also love to read books, travel and be in nature. Throughout the progression of our lessons, you will also talk about yourself on a personal level as well and a range of topics. If you are ready to start your journey, I trust I can be of help! ⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧Hola! Soy Gerry, y estoy aquí para ayudarte a dejar de pensar demasiado y empezar a hablar. Con experiencia de primera mano sé lo difícil e intimidante que puede ser aprender una nueva idioma. ¡Estoy aquí para ayudarte!

Me as a Teacher

⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧My lessons will always center around your goals, interests. I prepare a Google document filled with vocabulary, grammar and our conversation in class. You will be speaking throughout the entire lesson, even as a beginner. No worries, if you are starting out or you are worried about grammar, pronunciation or stressing about exams. I am of assistance! ⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧I have a Master's Degree in English Education, a Bachelor's Degree in Secondary Education in English. I taught ESL (English Second Language Learners) under contract for 1 year and throughout my career for 8 years now.Tengo una Maestría en Educación Inglesa, una Licenciatura en Educación Secundaria en Inglés y ESL!

My lessons & teaching style

⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧My lessons center around conversation, getting you speaking from the very first day! ⭐｡ﾟ･:*✧If you are a beginner we will start with simple conversations (about self, travel, interests). I like to introduce new topics through a video or short paragraphs. ⭐｡ﾟ･:*For intermediate to advanced student we will have conversations on academic, your personal opinions/interests, and news related topics. ⭐All my lessons are based on short paragraphs or a video to introduce new content and exposure to English. Throughout the lesson, we will work on new vocabulary and I will point out new grammar if necessary. You will be guided throughout the whole process-but you will be speaking in no time!
