Spanish is one of my top subjects! I am a native speaker of Spanish. I taught at university level in South America. I teach Spanish at a local community college.

I like teaching. I enjoy watching the learning process to see how a student becomes better and better, improving his/her knowledge with time. I am flexible about teaching methods. Some students need a lot of theoretical aspects, then exercises. Other students need only exercises because they master the theory. Some students can be helped particularly with drawings, graphs, schemes (they are visual students). Others prefer hearing explanations (they are more auditive ones). Most of students are a combination of it (audio-visual).
I have a bachelor degree in chemistry and a master degree in environmental chemistry. I have more than 25 years of teaching experience. I taught general chemistry at the Faculty of Engineering of Universidad Catolica Andres Bello (Andres Bello Catholic University) and physical chemistry at the Instituto Pedagogico de Caracas (Caracas Pedagogical Institute ... read more

Spanish is one of my top subjects! I am a fully bi-lingual Spanish and English speaker, and have taught both languages. I have also worked as a professional interpreter in the legal, academic, and medical areas.

As a Spanish teacher, I have an MA in Spanish, and have worked as a Spanish teacher at both the secondary and post-secondary levels. I have additionally worked as a Spanish translator and interpreter in the legal, academic, and medical areas. I know the value of knowing more than one language, as I have traveled in many different parts of the world, and have personally experienced the benefits of being able to communicate with people in their own language when travelling.
When working with students one-on-one, I try to find out exactly where the next step needed for the student to progress would be, and then work to achieve an understanding of the foundational material that needs to be understood and applied to achieve success, and then move on from there.

Spanish is one of my top subjects! • 9+ years of Spanish experience • 3 months abroad experience (Spain)

I prefer to have an immersive teaching experience, using the language as much as possible with little translation. I only do this with more advanced students or students who are open to this type of teaching style. With beginners, I focus primarily on grammar and pronunciation moving into sentence structure, sentence forming, and eventually conversational knowledge. Advancing in Spanish requires continued study of grammatical rules, but also delving into less formal speech and learning how to speak naturally using colloquialisms and idioms.
I began studying Spanish in the 7th grade where my educators noticed my aptitude for foreign language. I started a full Spanish course in the eighth grade and continued until my junior year of high school. I was conversationally fluent by Spanish II and began tutoring Spanish V students as a freshman. After ending my high school studies, I studi ... read more

I have a 4.03 gpa and exceed both academically and socially. I pride upon my interpersonal skills and my caring and patient attitude.
My teaching style can adapt to whatever my student needs very easily. The tutor can change, but the student cannot.

My comments on tutoring Spanish : I am a Spanish native speaker with a BA in Secondary Education (Spanish major), MA in Applied Spanish Linguistics, and a MA in Spanish. I have been teaching Spanish for 10+ years.

I am a Spanish native speaker who has a BA in Secondary Education with a Spanish major, a Master's in Applied Spanish Linguistics, and a Master's in Spanish. I am certified to teach Spanish in Michigan, Florida, and Puerto Rico. I have been teaching Spanish for 11 years. My teaching experience includes middle, high school, and college level. I have taught Spanish to native Spanish speakers and non native Spanish speakers. I love teaching Spanish! I like to observe how my students learn in order to teach them in the best way possible. I ask many questions to check that my students are understanding and we practice the material until I see that my students comprehend very well the topic taught. I like to review the previous material before starting a new one. I like tutoring because I help my students one-one.

Spanish is one of my top subjects! Native speaker.

I am willing to use your textbooks, or I can bring my own materials. I adapt to the needs of the student.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe a good instructor does not force students to become good at data recall, nor does he/she simply lord knowledge over the students and assume an ivory tower or bully pulpit mentality. Learning is an active process, one in which the student must be intimately involved. My methods draw on a relationship with the students that identifies their strengths and weaknesses, and uses each to improve the other. My goal is to make students effective at identifying what helps them learn best, so that they can become ACTIVE in the learning process.
In my undergraduate studies, I volunteered as a high school athletics coach and took advantage of opportunities to lead college lectures in History, American Literature, and Philosophy. As a graduate student I continued this passion as a volunteer teacher at Community High School in Ann Arbor; there, I used my experience in athletics as a vol ... read more

I have a degree and a K-3rd teaching certificate with a reading endorsement in early childhood education from Heidelberg College in Tiffin, Ohio. I also have a five year provisional teaching license for the state of Michigan certifying me to teach K-5th. I have been working in the field of childcare full time for the last five years.

I can't really say I have a style since I believe in adapting to the student(s) in front of me. Everybody is unique, so I must use different techniques to convey the same message to different students. I am very patient, I try to have my student thinking with me on the journey to find the answer. I can't give the answer away otherwise that student may never learn.
My tutoring experience started my sophmore year of college, as I was attending EMU. It started in the classroom, helping out classmates, etc. From that moment, people started to ask me for a help on a daily basis. That is when study groups were created, where I would either tutor a group of people or one individual at a time on weekends. I am still tutoring some middle and high schoolers in math and science. I also tutor now college students in Spanish and French.
