About

Hi, my name is Emma, and I'm going to teach you English! Learning a different language can be hard, but it can also be a fun and rewarding experience. I am TESOL-certified and have taught students from various backgrounds, ages, and levels. From immigrants to international students, private lessons to classrooms, my experiences have been varied and have allowed me to gain insight into the challenges that ESL students face. Teaching is one of those great professions that allow you to be forever learning. While I teach students both French and English, they teach me about their cultures, their lives, and other ways to see the world. It is a privilege to teach and I am thankful for all of my students over the years who have shared their stories, interests, and dreams with me.

Don’t make these common mistakes when talking about money in English. One of the best ways to learn a language is from identifying common mistakes. In this English class, I will show you common mistakes learners make when talking about money. Do we use “much” or “many” with money? How do we pronounce words like “bought”, “budget”, and “mortgage”? These words have tricky pronunciations. Do we “win” a salary or “earn” a salary? What are the different meanings of “bill”? Find out the answers to these questions and then take the quiz to practice what you learned. https://www.engvid.com/learning-english-avoid-these-mistakes-talking-about-money/ Join my conversation circle at https://TeacherEmma.com!
