I taught one BA-level class and four MA-level classes for English majors. The groups were relatively small (under 20, some only 4) and the students were hard-working. There were many international (non-German) students, so discussions were often lively. I taught one BA-level class and four MA-level classes for English majors.

ESL Specialist

• Aug 2013 - Jul 2014

With many years' experience in teaching ESL/EFL, I can say that I am a creative and empathetic teacher in the classroom. I've worked with students from around the world and on all levels (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced). My strongest area is probably college-bound and academically-oriented students. I am comfortable with both Academic Writing and Oral Skills classes. I hope to find a position where I can train and mentor other teachers.
