Jaden M Verified listing

Jaden holds a Bachelor of Arts in Writing and Literature from UC San Diego and a 120 hour TEFL certification. She has over five years of experience as an academic tutor and ESL instructor. She has worked online and in language schools in South Korea, and is comfortable with both one-on-one sessions and small groups. She has experience with students of many ages, levels and backgrounds, and excels at building rapport and putting nervous students at ease. Her specialization is in Education, but she has helped learners in IT, Data Analysis and Marketing write emails, prepare for meetings and ace presentations.

Her style meshes theory with heart. It is adaptable to the learning goals and observed needs of each student, and makes use of scaffolding, task-based learning and level-appropriate real-world media, tackling weaknesses through strengths.

A native English speaker with intermediate French proficiency and basic Korean proficiency, Jaden knows it can be difficult and frustrating to learn a language. She creates a comfortable, fun learning environment through incorporating students’ interests and building up  their confidence during her lessons. Outside of work, Jaden enjoys writing fiction,  performing with her band, and playing video games.
