About Me I love languages and cultures. Given that, I have the perfect job! My international experiences include one year studying in France and two years training teachers for the U.S. Peace Corps in Tonga, an island kingdom in the South Pacific. I received my M.A. in Teaching English as a Second Language from Northern Arizona University in 1997. I have taught in MiraCosta's noncredit ESL program since 1998. In 2004, I became the lead instructor for Vocational ESL. I have a wonderful husband, bright daughter, loving cat, and two carefree goldfish, Tom and Jerry. In my free time, I enjoy nature hikes, long walks, good movies, and mystery novels. My favorite pastime is visiting new places. My students are my motivation and inspiration. My goal is to assist them in gaining the confidence they need in using English to achieve their own educational and career goals.
