About Raquel

Hey, I'm Miss Freeland, while living in Puerto Rico, I got my start in Education by tutoring and mentoring classmates in English. I enjoyed it so much I also began mentoring English-speakers in Spanish, my second language. Once I graduated and started college, I began my major in Education, yet I wished to acquire experience alongside my studies and so I joined the Language LAB at my university. There I became an official mentor teaching grammar rules, how to carry a conversation, how to develop as a strategic writer, and how to speak and think fluidly in the taught language. To ensure retention and language acquisition, I seek to teach students by focusing on their strengths and independent ability. My overall wish is that all students genuinely enjoy learning through various methods.
