Our TESOL / TEFL Course Coaches

Cynthia Maria Pesantez

Cynthia earned her BA in Anthropology from Middlebury College. After 3 years teaching French and Spanish on Long Island, Cynthia spent a year living in Japan and teaching English.

She has experience teaching all ages, from toddlers to adults, and she especially enjoys the boundless energy that teaching children gives her. Her favorite part of living in Japan was learning to live in--and love--a culture that at first seemed to make absolutely no sense to her.

She's passionate about preparing teachers for the classroom.
