Teaching the way that my students learn best.

I believe in using real life situations, scenarios, and actively using technology. I like to use life lessons to enable my kids to realize that I am humble person, and I truly want the best for them academically as well as student. I incorporate peer discussions, peer tutoring, exit slips out the door, and class discussions to actively engage my students through the content and the process of learning. In doing so, my plan is to get my students to open up about what they know about the content and share it with their classmates. As a result, my students are more engaged in demonstrating content and standards understanding because I allow my students to demonstrate their learning through the way in which they learn best.
I have teaching experience with both general education and special education on the middle school level as well as the elementary level through my private schoo ... 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. I am an ESL teacher for a couple of online companies in China. I work as a substitute teacher for the public school system where I live and I am also pursuing a degree in Spanish at Arizona State University. I previously taught in a small private school that I founded. The school served students in grades kindergarten through second grade and it was founded with the idea of promoting literacy through the encouragement of world language learning. I teach beginning and emergent literacy skills in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Mandarin Chinese. I have also taught in two charter schools over a period of 15 years. During that time I served as a teacher in various areas, such as Kindergarten, First Grade, PreK, and Arabic. ... read more

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 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).
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.

Enriching and Inspiring Tutor

Throughout the last 17 years, I have worked as a General and Special Education teacher. As a Special Education teacher, I have mentored other educators, lead leadership teams and coordinated staff development workshops for educators. I have also tutored students in Pre-K through 12th grade in a private learning center and through in-home environments. My educational methods focus on praise and positive reinforcement. My teaching approach incorporates hands-on learning methods that foster a strong understanding of academic content while building confidence. I would love the opportunity to speak with you today about scheduling a tutoring session on-line or at a location of your choice.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a second year student at the Universtiy of Georgia. I taught private violin lessons to middle schoolers from the fall of 2010 through the summer of 2011, and I myself have received seven years of private instruction. I have experienced numerous auditions, concerts, and other performances, as well as traveled with my high school chamber orchestra to Washington, D.C. and Savannah, Georgia. During the summer of 2012, I tutored Korean adults in the mechanics of English, including proper pronunciation, grammar, and conversational phrases. As for the other subject areas, I have taken many classes throughout grade school and now college that have provided me with a solid foundation in them.
I try to use various activities and techniques when teaching to keep students interested. This also helps them (and me) to determine the way(s) that they learn best. I also like to ask the student ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Most of my experience is informal with tutoring family members/church members/friends in whatever areas they were struggling. Nearly everyone was pleased with what I was able to teach them and they showed improvement. In addition to tutoring, I have also mentored. In particular, at Emory University, I have for three years served as a mentor to incoming freshmen. I have helped them become acclimated to Emory and have also helped them create plans for courses and future plans. Therefore, I am confident in my tutoring and mentoring abilities.
I start out with discussing the area of weakness with the student and then try to investigate why this might be the area of weakness. Once this is discovered, I teach the student (through examples) until they understand the topic with which they need help. Then, I observe how they perform without my guidance and see if they have learned to comple ... read more

16 yrs. of instructing ESL at multiple levels: Grammar is my specialty. 5 yrs. of English Composition: primarily dealing with paragraph structure and essay development. 2 yrs. of Public Speaking instruction. 1 yr. of U.S. history taught through art and literature of specific eras.
