Experience Summary
I am a teacher by degree and have tutored a number of students in how to build their grades. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have a speciality in Esol. I believe the most important area for a student to learn is to first learn how it is he/she best learns. If the student learns by listening, then we concentrate in that area, if the student has to read and take notes, then we concentrate this area.
I have brought students up three grade levels by doing this. Students who are not native to the English language need to understand how to use their language to learn English (Ex. the word for sun in Spanish is sol.) So if you are reading about the solar system and don't know what solar means try to understand it through Spanish
Teaching Style
My teaching style is teaching the student how he/she best learns. How to be organized, and to plan ahead for projects, and how to do homework each night. If necessary and if the school's text book system has lessons on the computer, I can bring my own laptop.
