About James

Hello! I am a 30-year-old certified male teacher (NYS 1-6 General and Special Education) who is fluent in English and Spanish with a passion for education! I have taught K-8 in Ohio, Grade 5 Special Education in New York City and English as a Foreign Language as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Colombia Grades 6-12. I have also been an English Language Fellow working virtually as a professor at Phnom Penh Teacher Education College in Cambodia, as an English teacher with Venezuelan refugees and with a university in Mexico. I have my masters in TESOL. In addition and regards to the athletic aspect in my profile, I played Division 1 FCS College football at Marist College from 2011 to 2015. I have coached HS football as an assistant and am currently the head coach of the boy's varsity soccer team at Bronx Early College Academy. I am happy to discuss "tutoring" in personal fitness and/or sports to HS, college, and adults. Feel free to ask me anything!
