Hi, I'm Lisa. I live in California and I've been teaching since 2006. I'm friendly and passionate about helping people reach their language goals. From guiding you to pass English exams to learning how to play video games such as Minecraft, from succeeding at interviews to getting confident chatting, we will design a way for you to achieve your needs. I love learning languages, like Welsh, French, Spanish, Mandarin and others, and I love to share my passion with my students. As a digital nomad, I live on the road in California. Bellamy my cat, joins me on my travels and adventures. Some other favorite things include spending time in nature, creating art, reading and listening to audio books.Ik als leerkracht
I am a professional teacher and digital nomad helping my students reach their goals since 2006. Whether you want to pass the TOEFL or IELTS or use English to play Minecraft the video game, or if you want to succeed in your next job interview, improve your writing, or boost your confidence using English in conversation, I can help you. Working together, I provide feedback in each lesson as well encouragement and advice to help make the learning process as effective and enjoyable as possible.
I ask that my students be kind and respectful so we can have a positive and friendly learning environment. Thank you. :)Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are relaxed, comfortable places to use your English and improve your ability to communicate. I provide structure to the learning environment for students who need it, alongside a personalized, targeted study plan, and I can offer more fast-paced lessons for students who want to challenge themselves further. I am a kind and encouraging teacher who loves learning as well as teaching, and I try to share that passion with my students to motivate them on the days when learning a language feels tough. I love to see my students learn and grow while having fun, and I hope to help as many people as I can to reach their goals.Mijn lesmateriaal

Nice class! This time, we focused on movies and the teacher taught me cool vocab about films. We talked about our favorite movies. One thing I love about Lisa's classes is that we often go beyond learning English itself. I find the teacher very knowledgeable about variou fields, like psychology and literature. Therefore in our classes, I not only improve my English, but also enrich my knowledge about American culture. Lisa, thanks for being such a learned, fun, and patient teacher! Will definitely book more classes!
