Experience: 7 yrs
I am a passionate educator with seven years of experience working with youth of all ages. My experience includes teaching English as a foreign language, working as a literacy specialist for struggling readers, private tutoring for students with learning disabilities, and support for homeschool families. I am bilingual and can support students in Spanish when needed. My approach is to lead with positivity, encourage curiosity, and empower students to become lifelong learners. I believe in building confidence and creating an engaging and patient environment. I keep students motivated by connecting topics to their interests, providing real world examples, and celebrating successes. Communication with both students and parents is essential for understanding needs and building trust. I always provide detailed feedback and regular updates. Please let me know if you have any questions!
We were lucky to have Annalena with our family. She worked with my 6-year-old daughter for several months and was always dependable and professional — but what really stood out was how deeply she connected with her. Annalena used her creativity and warmth to make my daughter feel safe, happy, and excited to be with her. She didn’t just supervise; she built a real bond. We’re truly grateful for the care she gave our child.
