About Holly

I love to create a comfortable learning environment with my students, no matter what level or experience they come from. I seek to not only teach and assist with understanding a new language, but inspire an original appreciation for continuous learning. It's exciting to try and find a learning technique or specific aspect of a culture that creates a more meaningful retention of a new language. As a student, I found that I better understood topics when my instructor would tailor lessons according to my interests. I know that creativity in approach can significantly improve the way we learn, and I would like to be the kind of instructor that allows more space for that!
