Spanish Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Guilford, CT

Hey! My names Bethy! I'm 13 years old and in 8th grade. I've been tutoring since I was in 5th grade. I can tutor all ages in almost any subject. Last year I had the highest GPA in my whole school! I love teaching anyone who is willing to learn! I also teach children with learning disabilities and special needs. I am very laid back and flexible. While I might be calm I only have 3 rules, 1. Be respectful, 2. the words "I can't" are not allowed :), and 3. have fun! I tend to create games based on the skills that are being taught and I'm not into lecturing, my approach is very hands. Learning can be fun!

(Spanish) Since I had to learn a different language, I know what it takes for a person to quickly learn another language. The first thing you'll learn is to speak and understand the language. After you master the basics we can move on to writing, reading, and grammar. (Spanish) Spanish is my first and native language. I live in a Spanish speaking country until sophomore year. I can teach beginners and advance. (Drawing) I went to an art academy at age 8 where I learn the basics. Later I took 3 years of art classes in high school.

I began studying Spanish in middle school and have never stopped. Spanish was my second major in university. My love for the language has brought me to live in Costa Rica, where I have been living since 2012. I am currently pursuing my Masters in translation at Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica, a requirement for which is fluency in both English and Spanish. Being a nonnative speaker, I can offer you my insight into how I learned and mastered the Spanish language, especially the tricky grammar. Fall 2011 - ESOL Tutor - I met weekly with an ESL peer in my university to teach her English communication skills, specifically in the area of articulation and language. July-November 2012 - English Tutor - Through Universidad Nacional's Exchange program, I met weekly with university-aged peers to strengthen their English conversational skills and grammatical concepts.

I received my BS in civil engineering from a liberal arts university in Boston, MA ranked among the Top 30 universities in the nation, according to US News. My well-rounded education gave me the skills to communicate mathematical ideas and science concepts to any audience, including children. Now I am pursuing a masters degree in secondary math education in hopes of engaging and inspiring students to gain a better understanding of mathematics, and thus build their overall self-confidence. As an engineering student, I had experience empowering students by leading and working at science camps and tutoring at local elementary schools through a literacy corps. I take a creative approach to learning and cater to each student's unique learning style. I assess their knowledge base, and I make learning fun by explaining and developing ideas in a way they prefer and in a way they best learn from.

Personally, I am a firm believer in the constructivist, or active learning theory. I view myself as a facilitator, presenting opportunities for students to bridge material to their own lives through personal experiences and interactions. By supporting this theory, I place the responsibility on the student as the one who must take initiative in his or her own learning, as each child brings an entirely unique perspective and experience to the classroom. By acknowledging students’ diverse backgrounds as context through which students navigate in order to construct meaning, I allow for multiple viewpoints and interpretations of content. Constructivist theory also promotes active dialogue and peer collaboration as students internalize outside ideas, whether they be newly represented in a text or by an alternate perspective of a fellow classmate. Content, no matter the subject area, must beco

I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math. I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.

My approach is to determine the student's weaknesses, and then formulate analogies to explain the difficult concepts. I study the student's learning style in order to infuse the new material as easily as possible. Additionally, I introduce new ways to understand the material, and then observe the student's reaction. I graduated Rutgers University majoring in Biology and German, and minoring in Chemistry. I have a strong science background, which I will continue to expand by completing a PhD at Yale starting in the Fall. I have experience tutoring students in math during the last 2 years of high school, and 1 year of calculus tutoring in college. In addition, I tutor my 13 year-old sister in all the subjects of her curriculum.

I have tutored English, Spanish, ESL, and various other subjects in school homebound instruction programs and privately beginning in 1990. I have been referred by schools and agencies to tutor students on all levels, elementary through adult, and have excellent references. Fluent in Spanish, due to a long residence in Mexico and previous academic study, I taught ESL for four years in a middle school pullout program; all the students were transferred into mainstream classes and some achieved academic honors. I have also subbed in all subjects. Currently I tutor writing at Southern CT State University, the University of New Haven, and Gateway Community College. I am a writer and editor with knowledge of all aspects of language usage, and the special qualities and challenges of English and Spanish grammar, syntax, and literary application.

I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no excuse for not trying very hard in school because the main path to success as a young adult is a high school diploma with excellent grades. I am very patient and friendly with students of all abilities. A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis e
