Meet our ESL Teacher, Mara!
Mara, a language nerd through-and-through, graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2018 with degrees in both Chinese and Communication Science.
After graduating, she went on to teach at the elementary school level for four years and gained experience with students in grades PreK-5th. During her years as a teacher, she taught both Chinese as a second language and English Language Arts (in a Chinese immersion school).
Since leaving the classroom 2 years ago, she has dedicated herself to being a full-time private teacher (and founder of The Language Lounge!). She has experience teaching all ages of students, from toddlers all the way up to adults. When asked to pick her favorite age group to work with, it’s hard for her to choose just one. Each age is so special in its own way.
🌟A message from Mara:
“I bring a lot of passion and energy to my lessons, especially those with young children (I know how hard it can be to sit still), and truly believe that at the end of the day, the strongest teacher-student relationships are PARTNERSHIPS.
I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and/or your child. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!”
Meet our ESL Teacher, Jenni!
Jenni’s interest in Spanish began early and grew through study and international experience in college, shaping both her academic and professional paths.
After graduating, she moved to Santiago, Chile, where she served as Head English Instructor at a technical college. Through both learning and teaching languages herself, Jenni understands how challenging it can feel to move past the initial plateau and how empowering it is to start feeling real progress.
Jenni has taught Spanish and ESL in both virtual and in-person settings, working with learners from 1st-grade students to business professionals. Her experience includes teaching AP Spanish Language and Culture as well as English to native Spanish speakers abroad.
Jenni strives to make learning engaging, interactive, and highly conversational to create an experience that feels as close to immersion as possible. She is passionate about helping students build true language proficiency, not just memorization, so they can communicate with confidence and purpose.
🌟A message from Jenni:
“Learning more than one language expands opportunity, strengthens cognitive development, and serves as a powerful bridge between cultures and communities.”
