@crystalshoemaker
I write SEO-focused web copy and help language learners communicate confidently in English.
What I'm looking for
At Silkonect, I write advertising copy for online content, research industry trends and customer preferences, and improve search rankings through targeted SEO strategy. I also edit and proofread articles and documents for accuracy, grammar, and brand alignment.
As an Accent Coach at Accent Advisor, I customize American English curriculum around individual student goals. I've supported improvements in listening, speaking, and reading by adapting instruction for varied learning styles and proficiency levels.
My background includes teaching English in Guatemala, bilingual early-childhood education, customer-experience quality assurance, banking, and veterinary support. These roles strengthened my cross-cultural communication, research, observation, organization, and attention to detail.
I'm passionate about the written word—communicating deep thoughts, uncovering the value in others' stories, and helping them share those stories clearly. I'm also an avid reader who enjoys learning from well-written narratives.
