Hi, I’m Kristen Vibas (Vee-bus). I began my ESOL teaching career in 2005, and have spent the past decade creating practical and engaging resources to support English learners and the teachers who serve them.
In 2012, I began sharing my instructional resources online, which quickly grew into a passion for supporting educators. Not too long after, I created A Walk in the Chalk— a space where ESOL teachers can find ideas, inspiration, and resources that truly work.
