For school-aged students, I provide homework help and lessons based on the topics/vocabulary the students are learning to provide extra practice. For adults, I provide conversation-driven practice to correct their language, grammar, and conversational skills. For both, I can provide grammar lessons and exercises according to clients' specific needs, requests, and interests. I focus on explanation of concepts and highlight pronunciation.

Weekdays after 3 pm. Some weekends are possible with advance notice. I am flexible week-to-week, and may require flexibility.

I can travel locally (within 10-15 miles), or meet at a local coffee shop. I live in Rancho Santa Fe, very close to Del Mar, Solana Beach, Carmel Valley, and Encinitas.
