English for Beginners - Part 1

I have a bachelor's degree in Management Information Systems from Ball State University. I worked at State Farm Insurance Companies as an underwriter, underwriting analyst, and underwriting section manager for 26 years. I began volunteering as a reading and math tutor for adults in 2000. In 2007, I switched to tutoring ESL students on a volunteer basis. I loved volunteering so much that I decided to return to school for a master's degree in Education, with a concentration in TESOL in 2010. I graduated in 2011 and began working as an Adult ESL instructor during the 2011-2012 academic year. In 2012, I became an adjunct professor of ESL at Heartland Community College. In 2016, I began tutoring online and have completed more than 3000 hours of lessons on another platform. I am anxious to start teaching small groups here on Amphy in addition to giving private lessons.
