About Iona
I earned my Master's degree in special education from the Metropolitan State University of Denver and my Bachelor's of Fine Arts in theater/acting from the State University of New York at Purchase. I have been teaching ESL/EFL for over 10 years - working with students in public schools and one-on-one online. I have been teaching Shakespeare, voice, speech, and the Standard American accent for over 15 years now.
I have helped hundreds of students with a variety of needs and language goals, including business professionals worldwide who want to improve their confidence in meetings with English speakers, actors/singers who want to adopt the Standard American accent, and hobbyists who just love learning and speaking English.
Whether you are young or old, novice or advanced, a hobbyist or need to learn English/Standard American accent for work, I have the experience, patience and tools you need to help you reach your language goals.
I look forward to seeing you in my classroom!

My background in special education and theater helps me to cater lessons to the individual student's interests and to use a variety of learning tools to meet their needs. These tools include: visual aids, videos, role play (through improv and/or scripts), writing and oral tasks (eg. summarizing tv shows and books), and a shared google file that shows all grammar, vocabulary, idiom, and pronunciation corrections. I find that this shared file helps students tackle their language challenges and goals in an organized and practical way.
Furthermore, I am an energetic, dynamic, friendly and sensitive teacher. I can easily navigate my students' needs and pivot lessons as needed. I absolutely love working with students young and old, new and long-term, novice and advanced, and I am passionate about helping them build their confidence and meet their language goals.
I look forward to getting to know you and helping you on your language journey!
