Hello! My name is Mandy Huo. I have a Master’s degree in Teaching English as a Second Other Language from the University of Oklahoma where I learned theories of second-language acquisition and methods of effectively teaching ESL and EFL learners.
Upon graduating, I put my skills to use at a learning centre teaching children 3-12 years of age where I taught interview preparation, British phonics, reading comprehension, and grammar and writing to further the students’ English retention skills and to promote overall language usage.
I have tutored ESL kindergarteners and first graders at a charter school, where our goal was to elicit and increase student vocabulary through storytelling and familiar readings while focusing on sight word retention and reading comfortability.
