About Jessicadold
I fell in love with teaching English in 1995. I started tutoring a Russian couple. Later, I lived in Mongolia for 2 years while working with the Peace Corps. I taught English in the Govi Desert. Now, I teach at an Intensive English Program in Berkeley, California, USA.
I like to play with language and learn more about English and other cultures by talking to people who didn't learn it as a first language.
