About Me
italki teacher since Jun 23, 2021InterestsReadingHistory
Hello! My name is Kara. I am currently living in the Northwestern part of the United States but I have lived all over the United States. I love to travel and I hope to do more of it as my kids get older. I have a bachelor’s degree in Spanish and I plan on pursuing a Master’s degree in teaching English. My personal interests and hobbies include language learning, reading, knitting and different types of crafting and creating. I also enjoy learning about history, psychology, the brain and self-improvement. I enjoy meeting new people and being able to talk to them about culture, books or whatever we might find interesting. I look forward to meeting you!Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching my entire adult life, but I have only been teaching English for the past year. I have a TESOL certification for teaching English and I am continually learning new styles and techniques for teaching. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching English and I look forward to more opportunities to teach. I am a patient, cheerful and dependable teacher. I have taught people from all over the world. I can teach any level of language learner. I have taught every age and I am open to teach any age on italki. My teaching experience has been homeschooling my own children, teaching English to adult refugees and teaching groups of children of different ages. My lessons & teaching style
I aim to create lessons to best fit the needs and wants of my students. My lessons include conversations, with questions to help prompt ideas. I also like to use books, short video clips and games. I have loved using music in my own language learning and I would be happy to use music in the classroom for any student that is interested. I can offer writing exercise and writing help if needed.My teaching material

Today I began practicing real-time interaction as a natural speaker, using Costa Rica as my central theme. We shared screens so I could describe places while exploring the map, showing images of landscapes, traditional meals, fruits, and cultural symbols. As I spoke, my teacher noted suggested grammar corrections and helped me improve my pronunciation. This dynamic approach allows me to express myself more confidently, while deepening my connection to Costa Rican history and identity.
