I am a finishing up a bachelor's degree in Spanish language that i will receive in August 2013. I have been learning Spanish for the past 10 years, with an advanced level of speaking skills. I am returning to university in the fall to pursue an endorsement that will allow me to teach English as a Second Language. I taught English as a second language for a non profit organization in Richmond. I also am interning for a national non profit organization that sponsors children living in poverty all over the world. For the organization I translate thank you letters from children and adults who are the recipients of the Sponsors' donations.

Hello! Hajimemashite! I recently returned (June 2018) from my study abroad at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University, or APU! I studied and lived there for about three years. My major was in Asia Studies and Japanese Culture, Society and Media. I was able to get an equivalent of N3 on the JLPT(Japanese Language Proficiency Test). While i'm not natively "fluent”, I was able to live and navigate daily life independently. I was also a TA for multiple classes while I attended my own curriculum. Learning Jap ... read more

More About This Tutor...

We do not all learn to speak, read and write languages in the same way. Some of us learn by mostly hearing or saying; some of us learn by mostly seeing and looking; and some of us learn by mostly doing, using touch and moving parts of our bodies or things. I use all three ways to learn when helping others improve their English. I use hearing, seeing and doing. I check what students learn in one way with the other two ways of learning. There is a name for this kind of teaching. It is called the neuro-linguistic approach to teaching English.
For the last seven years, I have taught and tutored English to adults who speak other languages. In the last two years, I have added tutoring students in grades 3-12. While teaching English as a Second Language at a local college, I was a lead lab instructor for two years. Students work with me on pronunciation, reading, writing and grammar. The ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in the program of teaching across the curriculum. As a teacher to be, I believe that students are much more willing to participate in writing goood papers when it is in a subject that has meaning for them. If this is not possile, I take an approach to the topic in order to make it more interesting, especially when there are such good internet resources today. I am a fun educator who takes great joy in helping students to figure out how much fun our language can actually be.
Education has always been one of my greatest facinations. I achieved a BA in English grammars, a MLA in creative writing, and fifteen credits towards a PhD in literature and literary criticism. I discovered the writing center at my undergraduate university and became a tutor immediately. I found that I was in a position to learn just as much at the students I tutored. Over the past twelve years, I have ... read more

In 2007, I graduated from Penn State with a plan of attending graduate school for Creative Writing. I was devastated when I received three rejection letters from schools I admired. Instead of letting that devastation break me down, I accepted a job as an SAT/ACT Preparation Teacher at a learning center. After several weeks of successful, inspiring interactions with high school students in one-on-one sessions, I knew that the circuitous path that led me to this job was truly my destiny: I was meant to be a teacher. From the moment I had that realization on, I took all the steps I needed to become a certified teacher with a Master's in the Art of Teaching. I continue my journey daily as I student teach in the Newport News School District.
A year ago, I had the honor of substituting as an Assistant Teacher with an amazing kindergarten teacher. I learned then that she maintains her res ... read more

I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both physically and mentally challenged. I went to school online at Ashford University, for 2 years in an accelerated Bachelor's Degree program with a focus on education. With an inborn gift of language art skills and being a tutor for about the past 20 years, I have learned how to relate easily to any age group or functioning level.
I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying t ... read more

I love working with children and adults. However, my passion lies with elementary school students and adult learners. I am patient, understanding, and clear with my instructions and tutoring. I strive to make a difference and believe that everyone can learn.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a patient, friendly, and fun individual. Like I tell my own children, I believe that teaching and learning is a two-way street. It's important for teachers to engage students, to help them discover, to guide them in their learning. There's a good deal of back-and-forth initially to determine a good learning program, and it takes constant evaluation to make sure it works. I encourage students to ask questions and speak up when they do not understand. It can make all the difference in a learning environment, but it's the kind of difference I seek to achieve.

A Little Bit About Me...

My first goal as an instructor is to get to know the student. English, my content area, is very applicable to students' lives and everyday experiences and knowing the student personally allows me to relate the material to what they already know. I create a scaffold, building up their lived experiences to enable understanding before branching out and expanding their knowledge limits. I begin with the foundations and work my up. It is important for me to get to know the students individually so I can build a working relationship and a level of trust between instructor and student so that learning can take place in a positive environment.
I worked as an Instructional Assistant with students in secondary English, History and Algebra I courses. I aided students with learning disabilities who were placed in mainstream academic classrooms and provided one-on-one instruction so they c ... read more

At the College of Charleston, I mentored at a local Elementary school. My studies focused on behavior and learning, as well as a focus on neuroscience and the biological basis of behavior. After graduation, I was employed as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. At Virginia Commonwealth University, I earned a masters in education with a focus on counseling. I mentored at Moody Middle School, as well as gained a years worth of counseling experience at a local elementary, middle and high school. Additionally, I have instructed martial arts for over 6 years.

The basis of counseling lies on allowing the child to develop at his or her own pace. This attitude, combined with my martial art background which focuses ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching styles vary depending on the student. I had one student who was an adult, moving to Ecuador for 2 years to work. I taught him the basics using methods such as flash cards, workbooks, and homework assignments. We met 3x a week for 3 months. In college I taught a Spanish course for a Christian Highschool near my university. This was rather different since the students were in their early teens. My method with them was 'FUN.' I used pop culture and things that interested them to help them learn. For example: I had them bring in a picture of their favorite celebrity and they had to describe the colors, clothing, and characteristics of that celebrity in Spanish. It was a success.

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
