• English Teacher

  • Aug 2017 - Aug 2020

  I teach English at an A Level Center where I work with S1 and S2 ESOL students doing IGCSE and Oxford AQA programs. I design and implement lessons in order to prepare students for high stakes testing as well as life after high school by giving them the necessary English tools and practice to build the confidence needed to attend a foreign school where their native language will not be used in the classroom. I am also a homeroom teacher and I run an ultimate frisbee elective with one of my co-workers. Show less
