English ESOL is one of my top subjects!

This fall, I begin my twentieth year as a teacher. I'm still teaching because I'm still curious myself about the world around us, and sharing that passion, curiosity, and drive to know is part of my classroom every day. Showing learners the path to success is not just my vocation--it's an avocation. I've taught at high schools in Texas and Virginia, and have worked with students of all abilities: remediation and review classes, general, academic, honors, advanced placement, and advanced placement for gifted students. The courses I've taught include ESL English language, and reading, science, social studies, and math for ESL; Earth Science; Sat Verbal and SAT Writing; high school English for 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grades; AP Language and Composition; AP Literature and Composition; Creative Writing; Practical Writing; and, Science Fiction. In my first decade as a teacher, I ... read more

My experience is in teaching English as a Second Language and early childhood education but I would love to teach Portuguese as a second language as well.
True appreciation for Brazilian culture and Portuguese language. My lesson plans are focused on communication and Listening, Writing, Reading and Speaking skills development.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in holistic education, one that connects the student to the world around him, using sight, touch, and sound. Research shows that multiple forms of input create greater pathways for learning and retention. I prefer to use realia, or "real life" tools to reinforce the learning process and make connections. I believe it is important for learners to see the relevance or purpose in learning, otherwise, fatigue, boredom and frustration set in. I am energetic, flexible and committed to analyzing and meeting the needs of my students in non-traditional ways.
I am the first college graduate in my family. In the last 18 years, I earned an Associate's Degree and a Bachelor's degree in Linguistics with a minor in Spanish. During my studies in Linguistics, I concentrated on language acquisition, phonology, and grammar and syntax. In 2010, I earned a Master's in Education with a concen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Education has always been my field of interest. When my children were young (8 and 4), I've been teaching in order to match my schedule with their school hours and vacations. With French as my mother's tongue and because I studied in French, I was very excited about the opportunity to serve the Foreign Langage Program initiated by the PTA at Montgomery County Public Schools in MD. I've been teaching within this program until I moved in Western Maryland recently. In parallel, I was a substitute teacher with the county. I passed the PRAXIS tests(I, II, III). I taught also with BELL program in after school program to help students in DC public schools. I worked as well as accounting and went to college to get additional credits for the CPA exam. I will be glad to be a help for students that need additional time outside regular school hours to succeed. I understand very well this ne ... read more

With two daughters (15 and 11) and experience teaching teenagers from as young as 9 years on I have the patience and experience to teach all children. In my experience all students can learn foreign languages given appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. As a current student at George Washington in secondary education I will provide a constructivist approach to learning and keep up motivation to reach an academic goal.
As a German native I'm just here for 6 years, but return to Germany every year to teach German as a Foreign Language in summer classes at a private language school. I mostly teach teenagers and young adults in group or one-on-one settings. Before settling on German as a Foreign Language I finished a Master in Geography at the University of Bonn, Germany. I tutored also whole families before being sent to Germany because of the profession of one of the f ... read more
