My parents were diplomats and also way cooler than me. I fell into ESL teaching as a way to live abroad, and have kept at it ever since. In my spare time I make music. Here is some of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F31ZCC7DhE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfH-tM4yLrE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls-C0N6Y5PM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8iC6Xilb3Y I try to make everyone laugh, but usually fail. I can make any potentially awkward situation not awkward. I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life. Please teach me how to live in the present moment.

I'm a teacher by trade! I've taught English for 8 years now, to kids and adults alike. I've also trained other aspiring ESL professionals in the United States and abroad. Furthermore, I absolutely love teaching people how to play musical instruments and write songs. Free lessons!
