English ESOL Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Henrico, VA

Hello! Hajimemashite! I recently returned (June 2018) from my study abroad at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University, or APU! I studied and lived there for about three years. My major was in Asia Studies and Japanese Culture, Society and Media. I was able to get an equivalent of N3 on the JLPT(Japanese Language Proficiency Test). While i'm not natively "fluent”, I was able to live and navigate daily life independently. I was also a TA for multiple classes while I attended my own curriculum. Learning Japanese and about Japanese culture has always been a passion of mine and I hope I can share some tips and tricks I learned to help pick up the language more easily. One on One learning! I'm here to help those who know zero and want to start, as well as beginners learn and practice the basics of Japanese including the 3 writing systems, grammar, pronunciation, and native usage! I will prov

I am returning to university in the fall to pursue an endorsement that will allow me to teach English as a Second Language. I taught English as a second language for a non profit organization in Richmond.

For the organization I translate thank you letters from children and adults who are the recipients of the Sponsors' donations.

Graduating with a 3.4 GPA in Mass Communications, I have always been creative in both design and writing. I have earned a dual BS in Mass Communications with the emaphasis being in both Public Relations and Journalism. I also have a minor in Spanish, a language in which I am fluent. I have excelled at English since highschool and have written many articles, essays, and website content. Most of my tutoring has been in Spanish, although I would like to branch out into writing/grammar as well. My teaching styles vary depending on the student. I had one student who was an adult, moving to Ecuador for 2 years to work. I taught him the basics using methods such as flash cards, workbooks, and homework assignments. We met 3x a week for 3 months. In college I taught a Spanish course for a Christian Highschool near my university. This was rather different since the students were in their early tee

At the College of Charleston, I mentored at a local Elementary school. My studies focused on behavior and learning, as well as a focus on neuroscience and the biological basis of behavior. After graduation, I was employed as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. At Virginia Commonwealth University, I earned a masters in education with a focus on counseling. I mentored at Moody Middle School, as well as gained a years worth of counseling experience at a local elementary, middle and high school. Additionally, I have instructed martial arts for over 6 years. My education has allowed me to polish up my mathematics and writing skills, and my experience has allowed me to become proficient at interacting with children. The basis of counseling lies on allowing the child to develop at his or her own pace. This attitude, combined with my martial art background which focuses on se

After 17 years in the classroom, I still firmly believe that teachers are born and not made, and that all people should develop a love for life-long learning in whatever their career fields or passions may be. My loves do include reading and writing, but with advanced degrees in adult and vocational education and curriculum studies, I also enjoy studying many other areas of learning. My teaching experience has included 8th through 12th grade students of varying abilities and subjects ranging from literature, grammar, writing, test taking skills, Georgia High School Test review, Social Skills, Etiquette, British Literature, and ESOL. Teaching is what I was born to do, and I enjoy working with students of varying ages and abilities. Approaching difficult tasks or challenging assignments with new ideas or fresh techniques can make reluctant learners receptive. I am patient, but not a pu

My first goal as an instructor is to get to know the student. English, my content area, is very applicable to students' lives and everyday experiences and knowing the student personally allows me to relate the material to what they already know. I create a scaffold, building up their lived experiences to enable understanding before branching out and expanding their knowledge limits. I begin with the foundations and work my up. It is important for me to get to know the students individually so I can build a working relationship and a level of trust between instructor and student so that learning can take place in a positive environment. I worked as an Instructional Assistant with students in secondary English, History and Algebra I courses. I aided students with learning disabilities who were placed in mainstream academic classrooms and provided one-on-one instruction so they could h

As a honor graduate in counseling and psychology, I supported myself through undergraduate studies by tutoring with Richmond Public Schools. I've also taught an algebra readiness class through University Instructors as well as trained other tutors. I currently serve as a counselor supervisor at John Marshal High School where I review numerous reports and presentations for gramatical errors and superior content. I love working with children and adults. However, my passion lies with elementary school students and adult learners. I am patient, understanding, and clear with my instructions and tutoring. I strive to make a difference and believe that everyone can learn.

I am an Account Executive with Epitome Networks, a Richmond tech firm. I have more than 20 years of experience in business development and journalism, and I have worked at companies of all sizes -- from start-up firms to Fortune 100 companies. I have an MS in Mass Communications and a BA in English. I have tutored children and adults in English and French for about four years in my spare time. I love sharing my knowledge and helping others as a tutor, and I am fortunate now that my flexible work schedule allows me to continue this kind of teaching. I am a patient, friendly, and fun individual. Like I tell my own children, I believe that teaching and learning is a two-way street. It's important for teachers to engage students, to help them discover, to guide them in their learning. There's a good deal of back-and-forth initially to determine a good learning program, and it takes constant

My teaching style embraces differences among learners to understand why they respond the way they do. As an instructor, I want to understand how members/groups learn and maintain the balance in the classroom. I provide learning through a variety of ways such as powerpoint presentations, lectures to supplement the weekly readings, provide additional resources to support the material. The most important benefit that I can offer my students is to be accessible to them at all times. Assessments would reflect the learning objectives through problem-solving, open discussions, group work, role play and journal writing. As the only member of my family to achieve a Master's degree, I am committed to lifelong learning. I have earned an Associate's degree in Business Management, Bachelor of Science degree in Economics, and a MBA in Business Administration. Currently I am finishing up coursewo

I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both physically and mentally challenged. I went to school online at Ashford University, for 2 years in an accelerated Bachelor's Degree program with a focus on education. With an inborn gift of language art skills and being a tutor for about the past 20 years, I have learned how to relate easily to any age group or functioning level. I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying to help

I believe in the program of teaching across the curriculum. As a teacher to be, I believe that students are much more willing to participate in writing goood papers when it is in a subject that has meaning for them. If this is not possile, I take an approach to the topic in order to make it more interesting, especially when there are such good internet resources today. I am a fun educator who takes great joy in helping students to figure out how much fun our language can actually be. Education has always been one of my greatest facinations. I achieved a BA in English grammars, a MLA in creative writing, and fifteen credits towards a PhD in literature and literary criticism. I discovered the writing center at my undergraduate university and became a tutor immediately. I found that I was in a position to learn just as much at the students I tutored. Over the past twelve years, I have conti

We do not all learn to speak, read and write languages in the same way. Some of us learn by mostly hearing or saying; some of us learn by mostly seeing and looking; and some of us learn by mostly doing, using touch and moving parts of our bodies or things. I use all three ways to learn when helping others improve their English. I use hearing, seeing and doing. I check what students learn in one way with the other two ways of learning. There is a name for this kind of teaching. It is called the neuro-linguistic approach to teaching English. For the last seven years, I have taught and tutored English to adults who speak other languages. In the last two years, I have added tutoring students in grades 3-12. While teaching English as a Second Language at a local college, I was a lead lab instructor for two years. Students work with me on pronunciation, reading, writing and grammar. They also
