Biography
Since first teaching English as a volunteer at a picnic table, I have taught English learners as well as Arabic learners at various levels. Prior to joining CNST, I worked in educational settings in the United States, Palestine, and the UAE. As an avid language learner, I see my work as a language educator as the other side of the same coin: my experiences as a learner inform my practices as a teacher, and vice versa.
