I believe that learning a language comes from interacting with another person and focusing on developing communication skills. I am willing to meet the needs of students who must comply with their teachers' materials and work, but I also want to encourage students to develop their abilities through enjoyable interactive activities. I am very passionate about Spanish and I love sharing my passion! I have been teaching Spanish for 5 years in a variety of settings.

I love working with students of all ages. I believe that everyone can learn when they are given opportunities for success. Those opportunities most often give support to the student, but they also teach the student to take a responsibility for his or her own learning. I believe in teaching students to master concepts in such a way that they can also be successful unsupervised; thus, tutoring or additional instruction is an aid for success, not a crutch. As an undergraduate, I spent three years in the education program. I clocked over 100 hours in public schools observing, mentoring, or otherwise working with children in elementary, middle, and high school. I also spent two years as a Writing Center Consultant where I worked with college students on their own writing. I was an ESL tutor for one semester where I worked with two small groups of Japanese speaking students on their English sk

I have a friendly teaching style; I use a lot of sense of humor. But, this takes a lot of hard work to achieve. The reason I am able to teach French grammar in a non-intimidating, almost very relaxing way, is because I had to master it. I have a way of getting closer to my students and to their difficulties by having the ability to relate almost every chapter I introduce to my personal experiences. And, I have anecdotes almost about any new topic I present. I am a story teller in that sense. Sometime my students beg me to tell them more anecdotes. I tell them if they want to hear more stories, they have to do this, or that. And almost always agree with smiles that seem to say “you got us!” I am a French native speaker. I gave private tutoring lessons at the University Language Center to adults and their families as well as students preparing for the Graduate Proficiency Test (GPT) at th

I am experienced in all elementary subject areas and middle school and high school Spanish. I love to teach, and I love helping students understand concepts they might otherwise find difficult. I believe every student is capable of success, and I am committed to helping them succeed. I love to find out my student's interests and use those to help them learn.

1)As a tutor, I believe it is important that whether the students trust you, they would ask by themselves whether you are willing to help them and you are capable to help them. I always provide a good smile to my student when he/she comes and behave professionally. 2)I think good observation and communication are necessary, which can help to figure out the real problem is, such as not enough focus, careless, or lack of imagination, etc. 3) I do not take tutor just as a job, but also a help. So I'm happy to provide my knowledge to help my students for school. I have four years of teaching experience at graduate school. I was pursuing my Ph.D. at the University of Toledo for two years before I got a job. I graduated from University of California, Davis with a master degree in chemistry in two years. At both schools, I worked as a teaching assistant. The students I taught are mainly from

I match my teaching style to the learning style of each individual. My first session with the student is when I can determine whether their learning style is visual, audial, tactile, kinesthetic or a combination of these. I then write a prescription of study with the student that include several objectives and a timeline to achieve these goals. I work with the student to promote a sense of achievement and to build confidence for future learning. Gaining and sharing knowledge has been a driving force throughout my life. Literacy is one of the greatest gifts we can give to our children. Having taught grade levels from preschool to adulthood, I know that everyone learns in their own unique manner and at their own time. My experiences span not only various age groups but different subjects as well,including math, algebra, biology, history, literature, Spanish, grammar, reading/phonics, s

As a dual degree earner, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two degrees, a BBA in Accounting and an MBA in Finance, which has allowed me to gain an understanding in many areas in accounting, business, and finance. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and client reports, along with written reports in various areas of study in my 20+ years of working. I have been tutoring students in all areas of business, mathematics, science, reading comprehension, and sports. I love coaching and working with all kinds of people. I believe all people are capable of learning as long as someone is willing to help them extract their greatness out of them and to the surface. My objective is to help people reach their highest potential while maintaining a deameanor of patience, encouragement, a

In May 1997, I received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Lake Superior State University with a major in English Language and Literature and a minor in French Language and Literature. In May 1998, I graduated from Michigan State University with a Michigan Provisional Teaching Certificate in Secondary Education. My experiences as a technical writer, web designer, and writing tutor have been invaluable and have strengthened my skills both as a writer and as a teacher of writing. In addition, I have taught French for one year in an urban school district, volleyball for four years, and private piano lessons for over ten years, affording me the opportunity to expand my repertoire of teaching modalities.

When I substitute for a teacher, I want to see a lesson plan. I do not want to be the classroom babysitter. If there is no plan for the day I involve the students in making one. I'm currently working on obtaining my teaching certificate, to go along with my bachelors degree in Social Science. Hopefully, I will be able to go on to receive my Masters in Education. I have been able to tutor students in reading, sentence structure, English and American history. I love teaching and interacting with today's young kids. They fascinate me. Every child has different learning systems and sometimes it takes several tries to reach that special spot that opens the child's eyes to what excites them about learning. The thrill that I feel when that point is found and theirs, (And my, excitement,)grows. There is no feeling in the world like that!

I have always worked well with children because I enjoy their capacity to learn. I am drawn to students who feel they are incapable of excelling in subject areas in which they struggle. I also have a gift of working with students who have behavioral challenges and/or special needs to due to a disability. My AA in Early Childhood helped me to understand how the brain develops and how people learn and how to utilize the stages of development in educating people. My BA in Child and Family Studies has given me the ability to see each of my students wholistically and to teach them according to their future goals based upon their background and goals. I have tutored students in every subject from pre-school to college material. Teaching children and adults is my life's work. I believe not only can all children learn but I believe all children can excel, if given the motivation and inspir
