About Me

Greetings,

About me:

I'm an American citizen who lives in the Netherlands with my partner and cat. I love reading, visiting art museums, eating good food and watching art house films.

About my teaching philosophy:

My language teaching method is informed by two beliefs:

In an increasingly connected world, language learning is key to success.
and
Education doesn't end at school or university, it's a life long process.

That's why I became an ESL teacher, to help people succeed in international business throughout their lives.

But I also believe that learning a new language should be fun and challenging.

Specialization in museums and collections

Bachelor of arts, Wayne State University, Detroit, U.S.A
Specialization in art history and Italian language

Experience / Qualifications

Reviews (2)

Jesica is an excellent business English teacher. I took 10 lessons with her and found her a nice person who created a relaxed and supportive learning environment. She asked about my objectives at the beginning of the course and picked a good student book to follow through the course. Whenever I needed extra study materials, she provided them. The student book helped me to improve my business English vocabulary and we had many speaking practices to use the words I learned. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Jesica and would recommend her to anyone looking to improve their business English skills.
I had very good lessons

English Conversations & Laughs with a Native Speaker
Learning English should be as natural as you learned your native language: you couldn't read or write and you had no idea of grammar rules, but you were constantly exposed to the language by observing people and movements, playing and discovering. In my class you will take an hour out of your day to practise your conversational skills with me. You’ll be exposed to the language while chatting about topics that interest you, also while doing fun activities. This way you'll associate images, sounds and words and will learn English naturally. Every class with every student is different depending on the topic and the level of English the student is at. If this sounds like something that would interest you I urge you to reach out to me. I am a certified English Teacher and have years of experience under my belt. I look forward to hearing from you!

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!
