About Anna Shirley
Learning English doesn’t mean leaving your first language or culture behind. As a multilingual educator, I understand how we naturally draw upon all of our languages when we communicate and learn. I use this translanguaging approach as a strength, helping you make connections between what you already know and the English you are developing. I am a student of the world! I am fascinated by making language connections!
Every lesson is personalized around your age, interests, goals, and learning style. I work with young children, school-age students, adults, and professionals, from emerging English speakers to advanced learners who want greater fluency, nuance, or confidence.
Depending on your goals, we can work on conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, reading and writing, academic English, professional communication, presentations, or everyday situations. Music, art, poetry, movement, storytelling, and other creative approaches can become part of our lessons, making language meaningful rather than something learned only from a textbook.
For students in New York City, we can also take learning into the real world through museums, neighborhoods, cultural events, and other outings where English can be practiced naturally and confidently.
Most importantly, this is a welcoming space to experiment, make mistakes, ask questions, and develop your voice in English. You already bring language, knowledge, culture, and experience to the table. We build from there.

Conozco a Anna Shirley desde el 2024, tras su paso por Argentina. Desde entonces, aprecio su amplio dominio del inglés y su versatilidad para ofrecer una enseñanza del inglés situada o culturalmente pertinente, es decir, adaptada a la particularidad cultural, social, económica y política de sus estudiantes, en sus debidos contextos. Con ella, no sólo se aprende una lengua, sino una forma de vida. Su experiencia de acompañamiento y de apoyo en traducción cultural a personas migrantes hispanas, dentro y fuera de Estados Unidos, le ha permitido, además, desarrollar virtudes y excelencias interculturales para el aprendizaje del inglés por parte de personas de diversas culturas. Y el dominio que ella tiene de otras lenguas, como el castellano y el portugués, hace más fluido el aprendizaje del inglés para personas que hablan dichas lenguas. Por todas esas razones, recomiendo sus clases de inglés.
