Class Options
Specialized Private Classes for Children and Adults
These private 1-to-1 classes consist of some warm-up and free-talk, curriculum activities, and a summary of what to practice. With private classes, the lessons go at the pace that meets the student’s needs. We focus on exactly what the student can improve on, and no time is wasted reviewing things that the student already knows.
Group Classes
Group Classes (2-to-1) offer a unique and fun opportunity for students to play learning games together and add a competitive but fun edge to learning. This also helps some shy students feel more comfortable. They will take turns answering questions and reading. The teacher will take extra care to make sure that each student gets a fair and equal amount of attention.
Conversation Practice
Conversation practice builds confidence in students. The teacher will ask lots of questions to keep the student talking, and will correct grammar along the way. This is also a great option for students that resist textbook learning. The subjects will be tailored to the student’s interests, keeping them excited and engaged the whole time.
Reading Classes
It's very important for students to be confident in reading English if they will be pursuing higher education or international business. By reading out loud, the teacher is able to correct pronunciation, and the student is able to better understand the usage of new words by seeing them in context. Reading out loud builds confidence in students of all ages and levels.

Background Information About Me:
I have been a private piano teacher since 1991. I was an elementary school teacher for 21 years, which also included teaching music to students in grades K-12. I have been teaching English as a second language online for the past four years. I love teaching students and helping them learn! My goal is for learning to be fun and challenging in my classroom. I encourage students to do their best as they build their language and conversational skills. When I am not teaching, I love to play the piano and the pedal harp. I also enjoy making homemade sourdough bread to share with friends and family. I like to travel with my husband and daughter. Our family has a dog named Lacey that brings us a lot of joy and laughter. It would be an honor to welcome you to my classroom. Many thanks!
