I have also been teaching Spanish (to children and adults) and translating for Spanish-speakers for 8 years. I speak Spanish daily because my husband is from Mexico and does not speak English. I also have 2 children (7 years old and 5 years old) who are bilingual. I use a combination of E-mail, Telephone, Instant Messenger, and Video Chat (optional). Each lesson requires the student to translate from Spanish to English and then to translate from English to Spanish. Therefore, the student begins speaking, reading, and writing in Spanish from Lesson 1. Aside from the lessons, I provide Spanish musi

I am a native Spanish speaker from Madrid, Spain. I worked as an executive secretary until I moved to the United States 10 years ago. I have a passion for teaching my native tongue in all its intricacies and cultural varieties. My experience includes tutoring classes and individuals in corporate, school, community, and group settings. I have taught classes of middle school and high school students, as well as younger children. Therefore, I am ready to teaching larger groups of students if desired. I teach students of all fluency levels. Many of my students prefer learning through conversational Spanish, but I also teach by using a more structured format depending on the needs and preferences of my students. In all cases, I strive to make my classes interactive and fun. Please contact me if you have an interest in learning Spanish or in improving on your current Spanish knowledge.

I adjust to the student/learner as I am told or discover their learning preferences. However, in my experience and research, I have noticed that active learning and discovery-based learning are arguably most effective mechanisms for knowledge retention. Therefore, I make considerable efforts to implement these styles into my teaching. I have always been passionate about communications and teaching. I began tutoring mathematics in High School and during my undergraduate schooling I mentored and tutored introductory university level physics, calculus, chemistry, and organic chemistry. I am currently in graduate school at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine studying Molecular Biology and Genomics but remain informally interested in mathematics and physics.

Through the course load of my college career my studies also incorporated normal life span development, personality development, abnormal development, prevention, group behavior, cultural variations, and ethical and professional issues. I have developed specific knowledge and skills that incorporate broad application to many working environments. Overall, the classroom courses provided me a blend of theory and application. I had the opportunity to explore internship opportunities throughout the community in a wide variety of settings to provide experiences in applying knowledge and skills. The most important qualities of outstanding educators are experience, creativity, and patience. Each quality needs to be developed or tested by time in order to increase in its overall effectiveness. Teachers who can consistently employ all three qualities throughout their careers will be successful

I have taught Special Education for 26 years and third grade for 6. I have tutored using the Reading Assist program and various other methods for reading. I also have many techniques for teaching math to young learners. I enjoy working with children one on one or in small groups. I have retired from teaching but would like to continue working with children part-time. I have been substituting the past couple of years since retiring. I believe each child has their own learning style. Through a variety of approaches and materials each child can find success in reading and math in their elementary school years. I enjoy finding each child's path to success.

In my experience with teaching, I find that the best way to connect and convey the information is to provide aural, visual and experiential exposure to the material. Everyone does not learn at the same pace or through the same exposure to material. It is also important to be perceptive to the possibility of student frustration as this is almost always a road block that will arise and if not identified can lead to lower absorption of the material or complete lack of understanding and drive altogether. As a re-founding member and President of the Syracuse University chapter of the National Society of Pershing Rifles (www.pershingriflessociety.org) I was responsible for the planning and instruction of between 12 and 20 students in the areas of Leadership, Project Management, Exhibition Drill and Wilderness Survival. Throughout my engineering curriculum I was very often tasked with assisted

I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can. I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn. While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs.

As an Education Director at a Boys & Girls Club, I taught in the non-traditional sense, through after school literature-enhancing programming of various kinds. I instructed K-12 students, and even parents and staff, on many different levels of achievement and ability, so I am very acquainted with diverse populations and accomodating their educational needs through creative tools and approaches. Since my years as an undergraduate student, one of my passions has always been giving back to the community through tutoring and mentoring. Over the past eleven years, I have tutored countless times, particularly in research paper and essay writing (in various disciplines), literature, and even mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Education and seek to continue giving back in this way!

As a graduate of Wellesley College, I continaully strived to do achieve a high level of excellence. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't get a teaching certification while I was in college. It is a profession which I would truly love. As the mother of two children, one of schoolage, I realize now that it would have been a great life choice for me. I have helped many people with their skills along the way, and I would love to do it in a tutoring format now. Because I have a passion for learning, I love to share my own knowledge with others. Because of my own children, I understand that every person has their own style of learning and I love to discover that avenue for people to help them to grasp whatever it is they are trying to understand.

I understand the challenges that learning a language presents, and I am extremely passionate and willing to help students gain the experience they need to enhance their skills in English and/or Spanish. It is a wonderful feeling to reach that "ah ha" moment, when it becomes clear that a student has successfully achieved their goals, whether it is for personal, professional or other reasons. Over thirty five years of diverse experience have afforded me a confident mastery of supervisory, analytical, and linguistic skills that are applicable to tutoring. I have earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Spanish, which included spending my Junior year of college at the University of Valencia in Spain. My love for languages also motivated me to earn a certificate to teach English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). Further, a 26-year job at Department of Defense as a senior manager and Spanish

I am a recent graduate from Towson University where I studied to become a teacher. Throughout my career at Towson University, I interned and student-taught in a Kindergarten classroom as well as a Third grade classroom. Upon graduating from Towson University I was given the award as a student that graduated with honors. I began to minor in Spanish, but was unable to complete the course work due to a high demand of the student teaching program Towson University has implemented. Teaching has always been a passion for me. All children are learners, it just depends on how a teacher reaches them. Taking the time to learn about each individual child's learning style can help a teacher become more successful.
