Experience

I currently am in my 18th year teaching ESL in a public school system. I love it and wouldn't want to do anything else. Along with ESL, I am also certified in Elementary Education as well as Reading. I am also the Varsity Bowling coach in my district!!

Teaching style

I teach ESL students so I use modeling a lot in my classroom. I have to teach the concept, show them how to do it and usually repeat. I would love it if I could act as a facilitator more in my classroom but with ESL students that can sometimes be difficult.
