About Me

I am a 30-something English teacher living and working in Beirut, Lebanon. Before moving to Beirut, I worked at a public school in New York City where I taught ESL to grades K-5. I also lived in Italy for three years studying and teaching English.

For more on how I came to teach in Beirut read my first post . To read about my experience at the job fair and how I landed the job in Beirut check out this article that I wrote for TIE Online. To hear me talk about teaching in Beirut, check out this interview I did with Alexa Hart of Atlas Sliced.

    I’ll be teaching K-2 ESL this year at my school. I’m a first year teacher & am wondering if you have any books that you can recommend that helped you with planning activities for this age group?
