I help expat partners *level up* their English skills to confidently navigate globally-mobile lives and careers. While many foreign-born spouses are conversationally fluent in English, they feel insecure about their formal writing skills and professional vocabulary.

I offer one-on-one *personalized* online tutoring to help motivated global nomads – especially “trailing spouses” like myself – expand their vocabulary and perfect their writing so they feel empowered to pursue their career goals...wherever they happen to be living in the world.

I specialize in:
*Vocabulary Expansion*
*Advanced English Fluency*
*Business & Academic Writing*

My years of experience and encouraging teaching style can give you the skills and confidence you need to better integrate into the global community and apply for a broader range of jobs.

My tutoring sessions are conveniently offered online at times that work for your schedule. Please contact me for a friendly, free video chat to get started!

Tungsten Prep provides academic tutoring and standardized test prep to middle school and high school students. We work with students in-home in the Washington, DC area and online throughout the United States and abroad. Raising two children overseas, FSOs Sarah and Robert Gonzales understand how frustrating it can be for Foreign Service families to ensure all learners receive consistent and high-quality academic support that helps them successfully return to the U.S. school system and thrive in college. Our diverse team of tutors provides students with outstanding, individualized tutoring to fill curriculum gaps during a school transition, shore up COVID-related learning loss, prep for the SAT or ACT, or cover an Advanced Placement curriculum. We can also help families minimize out-of-pocket expenses by providing documentation to help them benefit from the State Department’s Special Needs Education Allowance or the Supplementary Instruction Allowance.
