What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create engaging, inclusive learning environments where I can support English learners, build confidence and communication skills, and contribute to cross-cultural education or community-based programs.

I teach conversational English to adult learners in the Dominican Republic, helping them build fluency, pronunciation, confidence, and real-world communication skills.

With Peace Corps Ecuador, I taught children, teenagers, and adults through interactive, conversation-based English lessons. I also led community workshops on mental health, nutrition, sexual health education, gender violence prevention, and emotional well-being.

At TAPIF in France, I taught English to more than 100 students ages 10–17 across three schools. I designed interactive lessons that increased student engagement by 25% and led small-group discussions focused on pronunciation and conversational fluency.

I bring cross-cultural communication, lesson planning, and community outreach experience from work across Ecuador, France, the Caribbean, and the United States. Fluent in English, Spanish, and French, I enjoy creating welcoming learning environments for learners of different ages and backgrounds.
