Experience Summary
I have studied Spanish for 15 years and have lived in Costa Rica and Miami where I was required to speak Spanish daily for school and for work. I have had tutored Spanish professionally for seven years and have many long-term clients, both young and old. I have also tutored college level accounting, economics and finance, as well as math and english for grade school through high school. My youngest client thus far is four and my oldest is 72. I have experience tutoring at all ages and skill levels.
Teaching Style
I enjoying tutoring all subjects, but Spanish is certainly my passion. I develop new lessons for each meeting based on the needs of the client. I am flexible (but not lenient), and I can teach using conventional or non-conventional methods depending on what works for the client. I know that different people learn in different ways. I personally learn through writing - but I know there are auditory, active and visual learners. I am not rigid, and I believe that allows me to be a much better fit for my clients, and helps improve their confidence and leads to a greater likelihood of success. I am extremely positive, and truly believe that anyone can learn. I teach with patience and encouragement.
