Greetings English Learners and Teachers from All Over the World!
I’m Ioan Elvis Sersea, M.A., M.A.T., aka Maestro Sersea, an American English teacher based in Southern California, United States of America. I’ve been educating English learners in California since 1989 and I continue to do so both at a charter high school and at a community college. I was born and raised in Romania, and English became my 3rd language when I moved to the United States of America more than 41 years ago. Thanks to my helpful English as a Second Language teachers who taught and motivated me to succeed, I was inspired to become an American English Teacher and help English learners increase American English fluency.
