Mme Kareen Missihoun-Terraza - French, Spanish, English (ESL) Instructor, Translator, Interpreter

I have a passion for languages and cultures as languages come very naturally to me. I am a native French Speaker and I also a fluent speaker of Abbey (my African Language from the Ivory Coast), Spanish in addition to English. I also speak German at an advanced level and Portuguese at an intermediate level. If you are truly dedicated to learning French or Spanish, sign up to learn with me. Whether your goal is to become fluent or you need general tutoring, you will be learning with a passionate linguist and with time and dedication you will see desired growth in your ability to speak the language of your choice (Spanish, French, English ESL). I am a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with Undergraduate degrees (BA in International Studies and Spanish) and Graduate degrees (MA in Public Administration and Translating and Translation Studies).

Sra. Gisela Cordero -Cinko

Whether it is young students or adult learners, I always teach my pupils how to be proficient communicators in Spanish. I want my students to feel confident that they will be understood when living or traveling in any Spanish-speaking country. My teaching style is to fully immerse students in the culture and language. Developing a deep understanding helps students feel confident in their ability to speak Spanish. If you are ready to explore all that you’re capable of in speaking Spanish, sign up to learn with me. I am fully fluent in Spanish and have a love of Spanish literature. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico and attained a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism from the University of Puerto Rico. I moved to New York City to further my studies and to put my English speaking skills to the test by studying at New York University, where I obtained a Master’s in Journalism. I also hold a Master’s in Education from Rutgers University and completed several ACTFL workshops. In addition, I have traveled to several South and Central American countries and I look forward to visiting more as a capstone to my 20-plus years of teaching proficiency in Spanish.

Mme Anne McClintock - French Instructor, English Language Arts Instructor

1 minFree

I am a passionate educator with training and experience in teaching students of all ages. I lived in France for 9 years, during which time, I studied the French language and obtained a MA in teaching French. Upon returning to the U.S. I taught high school French for 10 years, including in the International Baccalaureate program, and have led several trips to France with American high school students to introduce them to French life and culture. I have been tutoring English Language Arts and French for the past 8 years. I have a BA in Elementary Education and English and an MA in Linguistics.

Madame Kareen has been teaching my son French since 2nd grade. I am so impressed with his progress! We were so happy to find a local easy option to start a second language for him earlier than his school offers. He enjoys the lessons and Madame Kareen is very professional and communicative.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys her private French lessons with Kareen. She always looks forward to their Thursday lessons - and this is a child who will definitely let you know when she doesn’t want to participate in an activity ;). Apart from being such a positive and warm educator, Kareen is super organized and has been flexible with regard to scheduling and adapting the lessons to my daughter’s specific needs. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Kareen!

I have been a student with Kareen for the past five+ years and I can't recommend her highly enough.
She creates a welcoming and dynamic environment for in person learning and/or online with its own set of intricacies. Her academic experience combined with a wide and varied cultural knowledge provides a genuine appreciation for the language while deepening linguistic skills. Have thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from both the clarity with which she teaches grammar and vocabulary and her skillful integration of cultural insights. I whole heartedly recommend Kareen for any one of the the offered language learning programs.

I’m so grateful for my daughters’ French teacher Ms. Kareen, she’s truly a gift. Her kindness, patience, and dedication shine through in every lesson. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her students and wants them to succeed, not just in learning the language, but in building confidence along the way. My girls always speak so highly of her and feel encouraged and supported in her class. It’s such a blessing to have a teacher who makes learning enjoyable and meaningful.

Thank you for all you do!

My son's experience with Ms. Kareen has been nothing short of amazing! Ms. Kareen has been tutoring my son in French for 3 years, and his skill set and confidence has grown immensely. It's obvious in her teachings that she loves what she does and she truly wants the best for her students. She advises and advocates. She's the best!!
