Meet Your Teachers

Lindsay McMahon, “The English Adventurer”

MA Intercultural Relations, TESOL Certificate

Hi everyone! I want to help you finally move beyond your current level of English.

I have been teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) for more than 10 years.

I have taught in Japan, Argentina, Guatemala, New York City, and here in Boston. In my free time, I like to travel and explore, work on my Spanish, and meet new people.

Come get to know me on the All Ears English Podcast and the IELTS Energy Podcast! See you there.

Michelle Kaplan, “The New York Radio Girl”

MA TESOL, BA Arts/Theatre

Michelle Kaplan, All Ears English Co-host I am originally from Washington, D.C., but moved to New York nearly five years ago.

I received my MA in TESOL at The New School in 2014 and have been working in the field ever since. I studied theatre in college and worked in broadcast and radio for several years.

I believe learning should be more than just sitting down and studying. I feel that if students are motivated by a fun classroom atmosphere and interesting subject matter, they will learn the language in a more effective way. I enjoy teaching pronunciation and have a special passion for teaching English through music, television, and movies.

Travel is a huge passion of mine. I also love singing, writing and playing music, and comedy. I have even been known to bring in my guitar and sing in the classroom to create a lesson. Thanks for listening!
