English ESOL is one of my top subjects!

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Foreign Languages Education in English and Portuguese, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Translation and Interpretation from Centro Universitario Ibero Americano, located in Sao Paulo Brazil.

English ESOL is one of my top subjects! I hold a 160 hours TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification. During the process of this certification, I learned how to teach important English skills such as speaking, reading, writing, listening, grammar, and pronunciation. I also have experience teaching ESL to adults of different English levels and nationalities.

In my ESL classes, I try to stress communication and emphasize the skills that will help the students use the language independently rather than lecture them. I will use a similar approach with you, but will be flexible enough to adapt to your needs. I will have challenging assessments for my students to ensure they understand the concepts covered in the class and provide insightful feedback so that they can continue to improve.
Hello there! My name is Nikhil and I would love to be your English tutor and help you improve your confidence with the language. I have several years of teaching experience, which have helped me develop the important skills of patience, communication, creativity, and being organized which are important to being an effective teacher. I used to teach Economics to college freshmen and sophomores while I was a graduate student at the University of Virginia ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an ESL instructor, I understand the special needs ELLs require as they learn a new language. I have had experience with students from various backgrounds and have implemented different learning approaches for each individual student. I always aim to create lessons and learning strategies that are specific to a student's needs. I see my role as a facilitator who is there to help students learn and understand their subjects the way that best suits the student's learning style.
Currently, I am a graduate student pursuing a degree in Urban Education with a specialization in English as a Second Language. My undergraduate degree is in English. For the past two years I've been working as a substitute teacher while working on my degree. Recently, I have volunteered as a tutor for English Language Learners.

I have a range of experiences which help make me a superior candidate to tutor. I have lived and studied in Barcelona, Spain. During this experience I learned a lot about Spanish culture and brought my Spanish to a mastery level. I lived with a host family which gave me the opportunity to become more involve with Spanish culture and their traditions. Upon returning from Spain, I finished my degree at SUNY Oswego with two semesters of student teaching.
I have a very unique teaching style in that I like to incorporate many different presentation methods and I am a firm believer of teaching to multiple intelligences. No two students learn the same way and if the student is not learning the teacher is just as responsible as the student. This being said I have used many different teaching methods from having the students performing, and singing to setting up shops to buy and sell produc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I first assess the needs of each individual student since all students learn with different styles. Some students learn better verbally while other students need to see the words, phrases, and how the language is structured. Therefore, in addition to what the student comes to the tutoring session to master, for enrichment purposes if it fits the students situation, I use a variety of texts such as books, magaizines, newspaper articles, and with the Internet, I can also have videos of Spanish news clips, songs by popular Spanish artists, and even online educational games that exercise what the student has learned. Also, I have learned that all students require repetition and daily usage to maintain the information that they have learned.
As a certified Spanish teacher for grades K-12, I was able to achieve my certification through not only college level work, but also through daily ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to adapt my style to the student's personality and learning style. Some students learn best through visual methods, some auditory and some prefer experiential learning. While textbooks often provide a good foundation, I like to use "real world" teaching if possible. For example, I might have a student act out a situation (renting a car, for example) that he or she may encounter in real life. I am also very patient and this is a key factor for good tutoring.
I am passionate about learning and education. As a native of Princeton, NJ, I have tutored Princeton students in English for almost 20 years. I have also tutored in Spanish (in which I hold a BA) and French (I resided in France for 3 years). I have a wide variety of business skills, and hold a Master's degree in International Business. I have excellent communications and interpersonal skills and look forward to ... read more

I love teaching! Nothing makes me happier than teaching a student a difficult problem. I am extremely patient, easy going, considerate and honest. My goal is to provide the best education at the adequate pace for the student. I love reinforcing concepts so that my students are able to conceptually understand what they are learning. I also relate problems with one another so that the student can understand the basis of what they've learned and why its important as well.
