I teach English, writing, reading, and communication across learner levels.

What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an English instructor, tutor, or related role where I can apply my educational background and skills in English, writing, reading, and communication.

I've taught English and writing at Southwestern Illinois College and the University of Phoenix, including composition, literature, technical writing, and business communication.

Through Cambly and Chegg, I've tutored online learners from pre-reading through college level in conversational English, writing, reading, business English, and academic English.

I also created and maintained an Oral Reading program at O'Fallon Kumon Center and have published creative writing in more than twenty online and print publications, spanning poetry, creative nonfiction, and pedagogical essays.
