Meet Sarah
Sarah has been teaching since 2016 as both a private tutor and classroom teacher in the U.S. and abroad. She began her teaching career in Taiwan, teaching English to K–12 students, before relocating to Portland, where she taught in Montessori classrooms, founded a private tutoring practice, and launched a children’s yoga and mindfulness company.
With a B.A. in Sociology from Berea College and formal ESL training, Sarah brings a student-centered approach to education. She draws on her diverse teaching experience and background in yoga and mindfulness to help students build on their strengths, navigate challenges, and develop confidence as independent learners.
Sarah believes teaching goes beyond sharing information; it means understanding each student as an individual and helping them reach their full potential.
