I design engaging ESL curricula and virtual learning experiences for adult learners.
El SalvadorWhat I'm looking for
I've designed and delivered interactive ESL instruction for adult learners across Latin America and international markets through independent academies including Power English Chile and Ikaruga Argentina. I tailor teaching methods to different proficiency levels and learning styles while using Canvas, Zoom, and interactive boards to support retention.
At Language Convo, I supervised curriculum execution and instructor engagement for more than 100 virtual language students, built structured Coassemble training programs, and monitored academic KPIs in Tableau. My background also includes teaching business English, supporting curriculum development, and training learners for call center communication.
