My name is Melissa, and my first love, more than anything, is learning languages!
I'm a linguist who has dedicated most of her life to learning and teaching languages, because I believe that languages are an incredibly important tool. Learning languages allows us to see the world from a different point of view. As a language learner, I've become fluent in Spanish and I speak intermediate high Korean, plus I just started studying Dutch! I've met incredible people through these languages, and am excited to meet more.
In addition to learning languages, I'm also very passionate about travel! I've been to more than thirty countries, and plan on seeing a few more in 2018!Tôi với tư cách là giáo viên
My biggest motivation for becoming a teacher is hearing people say that learning English is "scary" or "impossible." It makes me sad to hear people say they aren't a "language person," or that it takes a special level of intelligence to learn a language. I disagree! I believe that with the right methods and with a dedicated teacher, anyone can learn a language to fluency, and they can have fun doing it!
That motivation has led to a career of over ten years. I've taught English to people in Panama, the US, South Korea, and the Netherlands. Some of my students have been so successful that they've studied abroad and found jobs in the US and international companies, using English every day! Phong cách dạy & bài học của tôi
As a teacher, I believe conversation is the most important aspect to learning a language, and I want to provide you with conversational skills that you can use immediately, no matter your level!
However, I also know that to be understood, you have to have a good basis in grammar and vocabulary, and that's why I strategically integrate them into conversation. We won't spend hours doing conjugation charts and memorizing vocabulary lists - instead, we'll learn grammar and vocabulary through thematic discussions, and in chunks of useful language.
My classes are suitable for beginners all the way through advanced, and I will alter my speech and pace accordingly.Tài liệu giảng dạy của tôi

TEFL Certification InstructorI teach others how to teach English to non-native students; some of my alumni are even teachers here on iTalki! I teach grammar, teaching pedagogy, lesson plan instruction, pronunciation, and classroom management, amongst other topics, and also observe practice lessons.
2014 - 2015
English Instructor - Intensive ProgramI worked as a university English instructor at Myongji University in Seoul, where I taught beginner and intermediate students. Many of my students found their passion for English in my classes, and realized that English does not have to be scary. Some of them even went on to score highly on the TOEFL, and get study abroad or job opportunities in places like Arizona and California!
2011 - 2015
Online English Coach and Coach SupervisorI worked for four years at Rosetta Stone, first as an Online English coach, teaching students who lived all around the world. I was very successful in my job and was promoted after six months to Coach Supervisor. I helped train new coaches, assisted them if they needed help with technology, gave them feedback and extra training, and helped create new language learning products.
2008 - 2010
English InstructorI taught English to university students at La Universidad Interamericana and at ULACIT, both in Panama City. My classes ranged from beginner to advanced, and I taught everything from grammar to advanced conversation. I also assisted in hiring and training new faculty, and was the official departmental substitute in case other teachers were sick or unable to teach.

Peace Corps Volunteer and English TeacherAlthough I was a Peace Corps volunteer in charge of working with Environmental Health, I ended up teaching English for most of my job. I taught in a very rural environment, to children and adults in a school with no electricity or modern technology. Because of this experience, I am flexible and able to work with any materials I have to create an interesting and fun English lesson!
2005 - 2007
Loyola University Literacy CenterDuring college, I worked for two years as an ESL tutor to students from Poland. I taught intermediate to advanced English, assisted them with job preparation and resume writing in English, and practiced advanced conversation with them.
