I have studied the indicated fields for over two years at high school and university levels. Also, I have taught English as a Second Language as an intern while studying abroad in London for one semester. For this position, I taught from self-made exercises, lesson plans, and individualised activities focusing on English comprehension, writing, communication, grammar, and literature. I prefer to incorporate student participation as much as possible instead of giving lecture-style instruction to learn their unique learning styles and to understand more about my students. With this understanding, I will be able to understand how I can better instruct them and test them on the material being taught.

I've always been interested in foreign languages and other cultures. While living in New York City, I hosted many international visitors and always enjoyed coaching them on their English. So a couple years ago, I decided to get a certificate in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) at The New School in New York City. The program focused on practical techniques and emphasized lessons that integrate grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, reading, writing, listening, and speaking. During my time at The New School, I taught a small group of Chinese- and Spanish-speaking students for about eighteen months, and I also taught another group of Arabic-speaking students for about nine months. I returned to Western Pennsylvania in early 2014 and having been doing online tutoring for adult students since then. In my professional career, I've worked with Information Systems and have ov

I was trained as a Secondary School teacher to use the Communicative Method of instruction. This helps students to create meaning from their studies and link classroom learning to outside experiences. I try to plan lessons and educational activities specific to student needs and interests. I work well with groups and individuals, Americans and internationals. In order to enable students to think outside the box, I use a variety of resources, including media, to explain topics and involve students. My lessons are consistent and balanced with listening, reading, writing, and speaking activities. While studying at Bradley University, I worked with the CHOICES program tutoring local disadvantaged High School students in core curriculum: History, English, Math, Science, etc. As a French tutor, I volunteered to help my fellow classmates learn the French language.

I began tutoring while in high school, as a junior and senior I would spend 2-3 afternoons a week at the Middle School helping the learning support classes write book reports. While in college at Slippery Rock University, I put up flyers around campus and worked as an independent tutor for five dollars an hour aiding my fellow students finish their final papers at the end of each semester. I feel that my degree in Creative Writing aids me greatly in tutoring because my ability to think outside the box and put myself in the writers shoes helps me to better understand their writing style. I've recently moved to the city and I am really eager to begin teaching and tutoring again. I prefer to work one on one with a single student, I do my very best to make my student feel comfortable and ready to learn.

I graduated from Duke University with a Bachelor's degree in English and I recently earned a Master's degree in Creative Writing from Chatham University in Pittsburgh.

I have taken my education and used it to gain experience in several diverse fields. I spent a year interning at the Smithsonian Museums in Washington D.C. I have served as a Publications and Editorial Assistant at "The Writer's Chronicle" and "Creative Nonfiction" both well-respected and nationally circulated magazines.

As a young college graduate, my own school days are not far behind me, and I remember academic pressure and strain. Education is part of the foundation of each person, and a thorough education is vital for success in this fast-paced world. I believe in utilizing teaching methods catered to each student's strength: some learn by doing, some learn by hearing, others learn by seeing. A student's learning struggles indicate that the proper path to understanding a concept has not been found, and as a creative thinker, I will continue experimenting with different methods until the student achieves academic success. And learning should be fun! My goal is to create an enjoyable and sometimes entertaining experience for the student while broadening their horizons. As a high school German exchange student and subsequent German major, I have more than textbook knowledge of the German language.
