ESL Basics

Andrea Giordano loves to teach. Having travelled to 5 continents, she is just as comfortable teaching in high-tech university classrooms as she is in the open-air huts of Central America. For some time, Andrea has been teaching portions of her classes online, experimenting with how the ESL learner best utilizes the internet. Andrea teaches at Campbellsville University in Kentucky where she has been an ESL instructor for 5 years. The ESL Institute at CU averages about 75 students per term and boasts a thriving TESOL endorsement program where Andrea also teaches each semester. Andrea presented a seminar at the SETESOL convention in 2007, and is constantly looking for ways to connect with other ESL/EFL educators around the world. Andrea holds an M.Ed. in TESOL from Shenandoah University in Winchester, VA and is married to a brilliant and talented baker named Mike.
