Hello, My name is Brynn! Some fun facts about me are that I love to solo travel and have been to 31 states and 15 different countries, I am currently living part-time in a converted van, and I am a returned Peace Corps Volunteer!
If you do not see a time available that works for you, send me a message and I can most likely make a time slot available!Ik als leerkracht
I am a former TEFL Teacher Trainer for Peace Corps Colombia (Cuerpo de Paz) and former Middle School Geography and World Cultures Teacher! I love to travel and explore the world, and inspiring my students to explore and stay curious was the coolest part of my job. A large population of the students I taught were Spanish-speaking ELL (English Language Learner) students as well, so I integrated many ESL teaching practices into my class. One of our favorite class facts was that if a person can speak both English and Spanish, they can communicate with 80% of the world!
In August, I will be starting a new job with the Peace Corps in Belize as a Literacy Support Specialist!Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My pedagogical philosophy is that true and impactful learning happens when students are interested, engaged, and having fun. I believe lessons should be student-centered and adapted to their personal interests and learning style. My goal is to create a safe space for you to make mistakes without embarrassment and learn from them. Our sessions should feel natural and fun!
My classes are mainly focused on speaking and listening through guided conversation. I focus on levels B1-C2, but occasionally work with A2.

One of the best teachers I have ever had. I totally recommend it to anyone! She is so kind and relaxed, but at the same time focused on the student's needs and wishes.
