English
Learning English is difficult. It is even harder to when you have to help your child learn English ...


♡ If this sounds like you:

"I would like to improve my English, but I don't have enough time."

"I'm nervous about speaking English in front of people."

"I'm not confident in my ability to use English correctly." 

"I would like to use English, but there aren't a lot of English speakers around."

"I want my child or children to be better in English."

"My child is not getting enough challenging math practice in school!" 

I can help!!

Hello, my name is Leah (リア), and I am very excited to practice English with you! 

♡ You (or your child) WILL make mistakes. We will fix them together!! You (or your child) WILL get better. Studies show that we remember and learn FAR MORE when we make a mistake!!

The good news is that with a patient, non-judgmental, kind native speaker (me!), you will feel more confident and willing to take risks. ♡

♡ Qualifications and Background:

  • Bachelor's degree in Human Services (similar to Social Work)
  • Master's degree in Education
  • 15+ years working with children 0-12
  • I have been tutoring on Cafetalk since April 2015
I have taught Math and English at a Junior High school. Many of my students have learning disabilities, speech issues, or were English Language Learners (ELL/ESL). 

Right now I teach adults at a University.

 More About Me:

I am from a part of the United States known as the Upper Midwest. I live in Minnesota (north center of a map of the U.S., by Canada).

Yes, it gets VERY cold and snowy here!!

I love video games, knitting, anime, dance games (especially In The Groove [ITG] and DDR [ダンスダンスレボリューション]), yoga, and helping people learn!

Oh, I also dye my hair because I love fun colors.

I have a full arm tattoo of Studio Ghibli [ 株式会社スタジオジブリ] movies. I am very interested in Japanese life and language. I love learning about Japan!

I look forward to working with you! Please don't hesitate to chat with me, I'm a lot of fun and I know you are too~!

**Not currently accepting children younger than 8 years old. Thank you!
