Introduction
I use research based methods that allow learners to acquire language in a natural way. This is done not through verb charts and vocabulary lists, but through learning in a way that mirrors how we learn our first language. Students hear slow, limited, comprehensible speech and master the most essential words and language structures that they need to communicate in a meaningful way. I love sharing my passion for language learners and helping others meet their goals. I love how language can open doors, bring people together, and make you think in an new way.

I have worked with Laura both one-on-one and in a small group class setting. She is an excellent, patient teacher and has a very good Spanish accent. Laura takes the time to prepare different and interesting teaching tools and tailors them specifically for her students. She is also flexible with scheduling and is a really nice person!

Laura is an excellent teacher with incredible patience and energy. She adapts her teaching to the level, needs and time limitations of the student. She is excellent at preparing lessons to meet the specific goals of students. She puts a lot of thought and preparation into planning lessons. She is a gem of a teacher/tutor.

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Masters Degree in Multicultural Education, Foreign Language Teaching Certification - Spanish, Proficient in TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling), TEFL certified

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Prioritize finding someone who's a true teacher over someone who's simply giving lessons. Your language tutor should speak to you about your goals, cater lessons to meet your needs, expose you to a variety of new language-learning resources, and provide frequent feedback. She should ensure that you have mastered a concept before moving on and demonstrate an ability to answer questions and clear up misunderstandings. She should be certified in her field and dedicated to her students' language learning.
