My name is Allison. I am from the United States and I have a natural American accent. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Business from Detroit College of Business, TESOL certification, an IELTS Specialist certificate and I am certified to teach the U.S. Citizenship & Naturalization test.
I have taught English online to students (ages 5 to 12) through Qkids Corporation. I've helped them learn English by speaking, reading and listening skills in a fun and engaging online learning platform. We worked on building their pronunciation and understanding of the English language using interactive games, TPR and fun characters.
I also tutor adults in a local ESL literacy program and online. I help them with reading, speaking, writing and listening skills through conversation, pronunciation drills, reading for comprehension and vocabulary development. I also help them create resumes and cover letters and prepare for job interviews. We also work on test prep for IELTS and practicing to pass the US Citizenship test.
My purpose is to educate, inspire and empower my students to discover new words and increase their vocabulary and understanding of the English language so that they can feel confident when they speak and develop a love of learning throughout life and feel comfortable speaking in any environment.
My hobbies and interest include reading, traveling, sewing, attending concerts, football and basketball.
Educationally yours
Allison Hester
