My comments on tutoring English ESOL : I'm a highly compassionate and approachable language teaching professional with a M.Ed in TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language). With seven years of English language teaching in China and three years of Chinese language teaching in US, I feel my most satisfying experiences come from a great rapport between students and me. I love teaching Chinese to learners that come from diverse cultural backgrounds and at different levels. Based on my knowledge of second language acquisition theories and applied linguistics, I design and conduct my lessons by employing differentiated strategies that meet students' strengths and needs to help them develop their language skills and bridge them to Chinese culture. My goal is to foster and create an open, supportive, and success-oriented classroom environment that each student feels safe and appropriately challenged and then can be self-motivated and engaged into their language learning.

My comments on tutoring English ESOL : English ESOL is part of my experience

Teaching for me is a sort of a key that we give to learners. with this key they open the gates of knowledge and imbibe all fields of wisdon and philosophy. I believe teaching is a big responsibility that we are burdened with.
As any student who was looking at the future with optimistic vision, I gave all my attention to reach highest degrees of studies. I have gotten a BA in english literature which enabled me to get open to knowledge about all what concerns various subjects, be it linguistics, grammar, composition. these are essential tools that helped in shaping the style and the know-how-to-write. then i got an MBA at JWU. i tutored students in english especially students exhibiting difficulties in english.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is unique to each student's indivdual needs. I take time to recognize my students learning style and provide the need materials or teaching style based their needs. I prefer tutoring to working in a classroom because I can give each student the specialized one-on-one time they need to help not only keep them on track with their school's requirements, but also introduce them to better study habits that could help them excel in the classroom when they do return to school.
During my years attending UMass Dartmouth, I recieved my Bachelor's Degree in Sociology with a minor in Business Administration. But I also gained alot of experience working with children. I tutored elementary age students in the star program and college students at my campus job in the Unity House. I also was the coordinator for the New Bedford Speech Academy.

While attending Brown University, I volunteered as a tutor at Providence Summerbridge, an enrichment program for inner-city middle school students. I realized that teaching was my passion and became a full-time ESL teacher at an elementary school in Washington, DC while earning masters degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from American University.

More About This Tutor...

At the University of Pittsburgh I learned many valuable skills that I use when tutoring. My Bachelor’s degree was a double major, both in French and in Linguistics. Consequently, I gained an understanding not only of language but also of how it works and how it is acquired. The experience of writing papers in various areas of study throughout my college tenure is also a teaching tool. I used this knowledge and experience in my first classroom teaching position last year teaching English in French elementary schools in Versailles, and also as a freelance English tutor in Paris as well.
I think students sometimes do need a little extra help when it comes to schoolwork. My own experience has been that when I talk over an assignment with someone I often perceive it in a way that I would not have otherwise. I consequently listen to my students and work to help them see problems in more ... read more
