Hobbies
Hello! I'm Kaley. Reading and writing are two of my long-standing passions. I am committed to creating a fun and engaging atmosphere in which my students can learn, appreciate and connect with the task at hand, even if it's not their favorite subject or one they are struggling with. I have extensive professional experience working with non-native English speakers of all levels and ages. I also have more than 2 years of professional experience editing essays for college admissions and working with high school students on test preparation for essay writing, reading comprehension and analysis.
