Stefan Calvaruso

Internexus Students Service Coordinator

I graduated from New York University in 2009 with a Bachelors Degree in History and Marketing.

Throughout my tenure at NYU I began tutoring and mentoring international students, both children and adults, in the art of the English Language and culture. I grew up in New York City surrounded by multiple cultures on a consistent basis and understood the difficulties international students have immersing themselves into the United States.

I moved to San Diego in 2012 and received my TESOL and Linguistics Certifications and became a professional educator. Teaching was in my blood and I followed my dream. There is something special about watching students learn and thrive both in and outside the classroom.

As a teacher, we have a important role in each students life and the ability to create a positive impact that will resonate in the future.
