TEFL (150 HOURS)
TEFL, Teaching English As A Foreign Language
TEFL, Teaching English As A Foreign Language, is a 150-hour online course that qualifies me to teach english abroad or online to non-native english speakers. I've utilized these credentials to establish my private one-on-one tutoring service to kids in my community and the school in which I volunteer. My personal experience as a bi-lingual speaker, gives me a distinct advantage in knowing the inner struggles of a learner in a similar position and I have the skills to help navigate through those struggles with my students.
