Special Needs: ?
I have been teaching ESL to all ages for the last 7 years: Chiang Mai, Thailand; and NY, NY. During this time I've also been a long term substitute in California Public Schools in 2 counties. SAT preparation courses for the Chinese American Planning Council's after school programs. Certified to teach business English.
Also, I am an event producer for several entertainment events with a performative background in musical theatre, violin and cabaret.
In the past, I have worked as a teacher's assistan in special needs classrooms, specifically for autistic and asperger's children.
I'm good at understanding the abilities and limits of a student, I'm also very easy to feel comfortable with. I push my students hard, but leaving them feeling accomplished. My family is full of teachers and I carry on the tradition. Please feel free to contact me.
