I began my (formal) teaching career as a Peace Corps volunteer in the countries of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan where I taught English as a foreign language to the students ranging from the 3rd to the 11th grade, working with the local teachers in the host countries, and gaining valuable cultural and international insights. After coming back to the States, I became a substitute teacher for the Stockton School for Adults where I taught ESL, computer skills, English, and math to immigrants, senior citizens, high school students, and post-high school students. Furthermore, I have been working as a formal tutor for an after school tutoring program called TutorWorks.
My goal as an educator is to facilitate the needs of the student and foster critical thinking skills. Be it math, science, English, computer, or another subject, my role as an educator is to be a person who guides the stude ... read more

I am uniquely qualified for this position. I possess an M.A. in TESOL and have worked for years in various capacities, including at the community college level and voluntarily, with English language learners (ELLs)and English native speakers. I enjoy teaching and tutoring ELLs, which is why I take every opportunity to work with students both formally and informally. I am also keenly aware of what it is like to learn a new language as an adult learner. I am proficient in both Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, and I am currently learning Arabic.
I firmly believe in catering my style to my particular student(s). However, I believe in involving my students in my lessons because I believe that this is the best way to both engage a student in his own education and provide him with a sense of ownership of his education. I am patient and believe that everything comes at its own pace, so I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 1963-64 I attended the Institute for American Universities in France, and also visited many other countries around the world, all of which increased my interest in languages and social studies. I taught upper elementary classes for 5 years, and after working in many other fields, taught ESOL for12 years as a private tutor, for Berlitz Languages, and for adults in the San Juan District with a specialty in pronunciation. I substituted in a wide variety of classes in middle and high schools in Elk Grove, and have tutored students aged 4 to 60 in social studies, English writing, including composition, reading, speaking and listening.
Every student can learn. My job as an educator is to adapt my teaching style to the student’s learning style, using questions as a primary tool. I give age-appropriate, ongoing verbal and written correction as necessary for sustained student growth..I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked with children and young people all my adult life from teaching VBS as a teenager to presently being a tutor and substitute teacher. In addition to my majors, I have minors in Greek and Western Culture. I wrote a substantial Master's Thesis. For the past 12 years I have also worked as a pastor. Part of my work in this capacity involves writing and presenting two sermons every week which is equivalent to researching, writing and presenting two ten page papers every week. In addition, I presently teach Greek and Latin, tutor students in math (pre-algebra and algebra), Latin, natural science, and writing.
My approach to teaching begins with having a high expectation for what my students can accomplish. Therefore, my goal is, in part, to help my students love learning and to translate the love for learning into higher achievements. I try to inspire the students In ... read more

I have noticed first-hand that teaching is not a one-way street where the teacher transfers knowledge to students strictly from the syllabus. I feel that teaching involves a constant quid pro quo between the teacher and the students – the teacher learns as much from the student as the student does from the teacher. I am a firm believer of a very practical approach to teaching, especially the sciences, that emphasizes ‘learning by doing’, a method that I myself as a student loved and have seen work in students I have interacted with over the years. The outmoded form of classroom milieu, where the teacher stands in an active teaching role and the student sits in a passive learning role is long gone - teaching is interactive, integrative, involving wider latitude of issues that stretches beyond the subject matter, combines theory with practice, and is capable of connecting individual though ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Individualizing English grammar, composition, and lit. instruction became a teaching strength during 12 years in secondary schools. Skills for ELLs were honed by nine years at a Japanese university. I tutored adults in my “Have English-Will Travel” company serving personal/business needs of Silicon Valley firms’ foreign nationals. Effectiveness with L1 and L2 speakers is augmented by detailed assessment and diagnosis of skills, with personalized remediation for desired proficiencies. Living in three cultures and specializing in Intercultural Communication enables connection with a variety of students. Publications reflect funded investigation of language minority students’ academic progress and well-being in Japanese public schools.
I love learning, and try to impart its joy to all I encounter. Much of that joy is realized by my students in developing and mastering needed and wante ... read more
