English is one of my top subjects! Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching is tailored to each student's needs because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching in a classroom, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.

I adapt my style according to the needs of my students because everyone has unique and different abilities.

English is one of my top subjects! I currently work as an English tutor for the students enrolled at the Art Institute of Atlanta. I assist students improve test scores who are trying to gain admission into the college yet score poorly on the entrance exam. I also work in the writing center where I meet with enrolled students to assist in each step of the writing porcess. The ultimate goal for the students and I is that we end with a polished final draft that contains good grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and flow.

I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a subject matter. I have since went on to develop tutoring groups on all educational levels. I co-founded a youth group T.U.F.F. (Teach Us First Foundation) where we attend local elementary schools offering tutoring services in Math, English, Sciences and Social Studies. During high school I developed a teen study group entitled Let's Rap where we would meet (with professional tutors on site), assist each other with homework and discuss any material that was causing confusion in class. During my time at Albany ... read more

My comments on tutoring English : I have been trained and I am experienced with teaching ESL to both children and adults. I am very secure in my English skills. I have also completed training with the Minnesota Literacy Counsel.

I have been teaching and tutoring students for more than 20 years. I currently provide online as well as in person tutoring to students in the areas of phonics and reading.

English is one of my top subjects! I learned English as a second language (my first language is Russian) and I know how to help and teach students learning ESL because I went through this process myself. It involves much more than learning just grammar and

I tailor my teaching style to the student's goals and needs. Every individual is different in learning style/strategies preferences, so I work together with the student to put together a customized syllabus with realistic and manageable goals for a set timeframe.
I am a native speaker of Russian. I was born and grew up in the former Soviet Union and I moved to the US in 2008. I have a bachelors degree in German and a masters degree in English with concentration in TESOL (Teaching English To Speakers of Other Langauages) from IUPUI (Indianapolis, Indiana). I have multiple years of tutoring experience of ESL (English as a second language), as well as tutoring Russian (one-on-one in person and online through Skype or Zoom).

More About This Tutor...

I boast more than 14 years of experience in English education. I induce independent learning by stimulating curiosity about class topics through student-centered education methods, and I guide each student to engage in class with confidence to achieve their goals. I have mastered more than four languages besides English, and by doing so I've got a better understanding of the difficulties students face when learning a foreign language other than their own. I have thought languages in different parts of the world, France, Japan, UAE and South Korea, I've also trained executives and employees of several companies, such as Sinopec, McKesson, Exor, and Webhelp. Currently, I co-founded and operate Collabo, a startup specializing in one-on-one classes based in South Korea, and have prepared a program to help students speak English fluently in only few months.

Learn from a Doctor: Writing, Test Prep, Classical Languages

Ph.D., Religion, Emory University (2013) M.A., Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (2005) B.A., History, Taylor University (2002) My career as a tutor began when I was looking for a way to support myself during my graduate studies in the Boston area. After signing on with a local company, I discovered my passion for finding better ways to help students overcome difficulties and achieve their goals. I enjoyed the challenges of adapting content to the individual needs of each student, of pioneering new ways of communicating ideas, and of working closely with parents to ensure that my efforts were effective. Sensing the need for more structure, I later moved to Kaplan. In more recent years, I have tutored independently. Perhaps the most rewarding part of the work is sharing in the success of my clients.

My comments on tutoring English : After earning an ESOL endorsement from Berry College, I taught English to ESOL students in the Fayette County School System to 9-12 grade students.

I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher. Additionally, I worked at Aloha-USA Mind Math with Elementary Students as an English Teacher and occasionally a Math teacher.
I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal.

A Little Bit About Me...

I was a Supply instructor for Atlanta Public Schools for approximately eight years, and have a degree in English. I worked at the middle grades level in various subjects, as required, with a primary focus in math. I unfortunately do not have the materials left from my employ, but can tutor using computers, and school materials for reference.
The realization that children do well in small group instructional settings, and on an individual tutoring basis, is what I took most from my years in the classroom. My focus is to ascertain the instructional level needed, then instruct for that standpoint. I do not like busywork, but instead look for progress in the individual child. Once the subject is mastered, then it is time to move on to other subjects. The compensation is negotiable depending on the number of children tutored. I also do not set a time frame regarding instruction, as chil ... read more
