NEW STUDENTS:
For new students who don’t have specific goals, I generally will assign various writing topics at the beginning as homework, which we will go over together. From this, we can identify particular goals that are most appropriate for your situation and figure out a study plan of grammar points, practice assignments, etc that will help you improve your fluency in English.

REGULAR STUDENTS:
For regular students or new students who come with very specific grammar goals, we will dive deeper into improving your language knowledge with grammar-focused classes that are based on some of the key points we have identified together through your writing practice. The skills you will learn in this course will help you with speaking as well.

The International Association of Hyperpolyglots (HYPIA) is an international body representing the unique and growing population of hyperpolyglots worldwide. We adhere to the definition of Hyperpolyglots as preferred by the general consensus to mean “a person who is fluent in six or more languages.”  However, we expand our association to include persons who are conversant in eight or more languages. Although small, our association boasts some of the most talented emerging linguists worldwide.

myTEFL courses are internationally recognized & independently accredited
myTEFL and its parent company, Footprints Language Education Ltd. (FLE) have been contributing to the TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) industry since 2004. Our faculty has over 40 years of combined experience developing EFL content with publishers, establishing language learning centers, advancing teacher training programs, and cooperating with employers worldwide.

Six semesters at Brandeis University, containing coursework towards my physics major, math major, and secondary education minor. I also took Chinese courses every semester.

This job gave me direct experience preparing and instructing lessons in a group class format to ages 14-17. I learned a ton about how to effectively format lessons to students who are struggling with acquiring new content and differentiating lesson structure to meet the needs of a wide variety of levels.

I have worked as an at-home one-on-one tutor for the past three years where I help students who are struggling with their classes, or are homeschooled, or need help preparing for an upcoming standardized exam. This experience has taught me a lot about how to meet students at their specific needs and tailor lessons based on what students find most difficult and what students could use the best practice on. It also has given me practice on how to properly pace for and assess student understanding.

Instructor of group and private fitness classes (aerial circus arts). This has given me lots of opportunity to develop my ability to connect with clients and provide customized lesson plans and instruction.
