About Heather
I am finishing my Ph.D. in Canada and I have lived here all my life. English is my first language, although I also speak French and I translate literature from five languages. I possess an ABD which makes me an expert in my field. This level of expertise requires an advanced capability to eloquently express verbally and to communicate sophisticatedly in writing. As an ABD Ph.D. candidate, I have experience as a professor and a guest lecturer. I am an experienced teacher with proven methods.

In the past 10 years in graduate school, I have written hundreds of thousands of pages writing my Master's thesis and my Ph.D. dissertation which helped me hone my skills in grammar and syntax. My mother did a great job reminding m how to speak correctly too, haha. Throughout my years in school, I also studied Sanskrit for four years, Ancient Greek and Latin for three years, Tibetan for six months, and recently I have been studying Syriac for one year. By learning other languages I was able to better understand the particulars of grammar and specifically how they work with English. More than that I learned how hard of a language English is to learn and I appreciate how difficult it is for new English speakers. If I can apply my skills to help someone learn a new language (something I love doing) I would love to help.

I have had the pleasure to work with Heather in a communications team where her strong writing skills, attention to detail, and ability to explain complex initiatives in a clear and concise manner were highly valued competencies. I believe that these skills, among other, would make Heather an excellent teacher.
