"I taught Marketing at the university level as well as ESL English in various schools for three years in Panama before moving to Miami. I teach English as a second language here in Miami as well as accent reduction.

With my business background I can relate to the language and terms that executives and others in business need to use to sound knowledgeable and professional. I have worked with many corporate level executives and people in entertainment and other highly public positions. You will get honest feedback as well as practice in the skills you need to speak effectively.

I have a TESOL certificate as well as numerous training hours in teaching theory and techniques for the ESL classroom.

Helping students become confident with their English pronunciation, intonation and phrasing is my passion. I utilize accent training exercises for proper pronunciation. As the student progresses we move on to scripts to practice the use of thought groups, word emphasis, and intonation to make their English more clear, understandable, and effective to native English speakers. My accent is from the Midwest of the US and so you will be learning the accent most heard in the media and in professional situations here in the US.
