English ESOL Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Appling, GA

I individualize instruction based on the student's goals, learning styles, and age. I love to learn and so try to make learning as fun as possible for my students. I have been an educator for the past 8 years, serving as an elementary teacher, middle and high school teacher, and ESL teacher. I have also taught online and in a tutoring company. I am a big believer in individualized instruction, and I think tutoring is one of the best ways for a student to learn. I have some unique teaching experiences in international schools in Macedonia, and I have also taught in Thailand and the U.S. I am passionate about learning and I love seeing my students succeed in their own academic/language endeavors!

I have been teaching and tutoring a diverse student population for almost 9 years. So far, it has been a mutually interesting experience for both parts, students and teacher. I started my teaching career through instructing languages, mainly French, my native language, for the one and a half year, and then I included different sorts of Math as well till the present. I have in possession a Bachelor's degree, two Master's degrees and an ongoing PhD. My main field stream is teaching methods and theories of languages, multiple subjects and special need instruction as well. During my teaching and tutoring experience, I have had the chance to explore different kinds of students learning backgrounds and helping them accordingly. I am a teacher and a tutor, yet, I have gone through quite an interestingly rich learning experience myself. I have helped students coming from wealthy and rich

My strongest area of expertise in teaching is reading. I have taught it for years. I have come to the conclusion through both personal experience, observation of other master teachers and through current educational research that it is most necessary to teach reading and math daily in a systematic manner while exposing the students to a learning rich environment(a classroom reading corner full of books is ideal for this). Research shows that a child needs 100 exposures, repetitions of for example the word “fox” to learn how to read it and make it their own. I have worked with children in the public school system for thirty-four years as a classroom teacher, Title I augmented reading teacher and as a media specialist. Largely due to my years experience as a reading teacher my class of inner city children scored in the top one percentile on the Georgia Criterion Reference Test(GA CRCT)

I have expertise in teaching reading and math from infancy to grade 8. I have successfully tutored college math and English. I have taught 6th, 1st, 4th and 2nd grade in SC and GA public schools. I have taught in a private school specializing in students with learning disabilities, dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, and autism. In 1999, I developed and operated my own private tutoring service in Charleston, SC. My students consistently meet or exceed standardized test (CRCT) expectations. I'm quite proud of the performances of my students every year! Prior to teaching, I was a nanny so I have never had a job that didn't involve children. If students don't learn the way we teach, we must learn to teach the way they learn. I believe in Orton-Gillingham's philosophy of teaching everything using as many senses simultaneously as possible. Thus, I introduce and teach using manipulatives so lessons are hands

I tend to use an interactive style of teaching. I involve the student by asking questions and using illustrations because I believe it's more important for the student to understand why an answer is correct than to get the correct answer. I tend to focus on principles that can be applied in specific situations and then provide practice exercises to use the principles. I'm flexible in my approach and try to adapt to the needs of the student, considering the way that he or she learns best. I view myself as a cheerleader, encouraging students to press on and not put themselves down or give up, and as a problem solver who looks for ways to help students overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of achieving their goals. I am a qualified teacher in both Elementary Education and ESL. I have a master’s degree in Teaching English as a Foreign/Second Language and 6 years of teaching experience

I hold a BS in Education and a Masters in Education. I taught Kindergarten and 1st grade in Maryland for five years and I am currently a teacher in Richmond County. For the past six years I have tutored 2nd-5th grade students after school in reading and math, as well as, summer school for elementary students. This experience has given me the opportunity to work individually with students and create a plan for their success. I have participated in hundreds of hours of professional development for reading and math throughout the past ten years. I am up-to-date on best practices for helping students successfully master skills and be able to apply them to the real world. I love teaching and working with all students. I believe that all students can learn and be successful. I will help your student meet their learning goals and provide instruction that meets their specific needs. I wi

I graduated with honors from Toccoa Falls College in NE Georgia with a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education: English. I am Georgia-certified to teach English Language Arts in grades 6-12 and my student teaching internship was 9th, 11th, and 12th grade in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. I just finished a two-year contract at an international school in Daejeon, South Korea, teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Reading and Writing. I attended several continuing education seminars over the last two years. I worked one-on-one with a student for a year using the SRA direct instruction program to increase her decoding skills in reading. I've taught grammar, creative writing, research skills, persuasion, as well as simply reading and enjoying literature. In my few years of teaching, each child that has come through my classroom has affected my way of thinking. With each child being individual and dif

My experience as a teacher/trainer/tutor/instructor is wide-reaching and diverse. From Sunday school to scientific and technical subject matter, my students have ranged from teenagers to corporate managers and directors. My passion for English started with the greatest high school English teacher the Southside of Chicago has ever known; Maceo T. Bowie. He was a role model for me and many others who had the fortune, or misfortune, of being in his classes. My greatest achievement was learning subject matter in German and then having my German students present this information to me in English only. My teaching style is to insist on excellence in speaking, writing, and reading in English. I work with patience, but over a reasonable amount of time, constantly using the wrong tense will earn students a demerit on the class "OOP's" chart. This is a "fun" classroom tool but soon they begin to c

I believe that every child has a natural desire and ability to learn. When I teach I focus on the students' interests and give them as much free choice as possible in order to encourage their natural sense of wonder and to maintain a warm environment. That said, I consistently expect high standards of achievement and behavior. I also endeavor to use different learning methods incorporating visual, auditory, and kinesthetic tools, which allow for the varied learning styles of different students. My goal is to teach high school English. I have several years experience working with youth in teaching roles, including tutoring both math and english. For 11 months in Ecuador I taught English, Health, Phys. Ed., and career skills to elementary school working children and literacy to their parents. Other experiences include 6 weeks teaching project management and career skills to high sc

I enjoy teaching according to the understanding of the student. I will adapt to the learning style of the student and use the best means to ensure comprehension. When a student can answer questions and explain a subject, he/she has learned. If applicable, additional teaching aides will be used in popular culture to re-enforce the information needing assimilation. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best support possible. I believe in teaching through discovery and your child's existing ability. All children can learn and excel when given appropriate tools to meet their potential. It only takes a spark to light the torch of excellence. I began my educational experience as a mentor and tutor to Primary school students. I continue tutoring students from the elementary to college levels. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in History and BA in Politic

With my Bachelor's degree, I began tutoring through Reading Success and conducted private tutoring of Georgia History. I progressed to teaching English, Spanish, and some Special Education Resource classes at the High School level, and continued to teach lower level English classes at a local college along with reading in an Adult Continuing Education program through another college. My writing skills have been sharpened as I edited and wrote articles for newsletters, newspaper releases, and in an administrative capacity. I enjoy teaching and do my best to make learning fun and easy for my pupils. I approach lessons by letting the student realize how and why the lesson is important and how it relates to their lives. I firmly believe everyone can learn; the style in which they learn may differ from others, but given the correct approach, all teachers/tutors can be successful.
