Spanish Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Lagrange, ME

Spanish is my native language. I taught Spanish during the 2006-07 school year at Cimarron Montessori School while also serving as a teacher’s assistant at Monroe Elementary School. The following school year (2007-08) I moved to Bangor, Maine where I worked as a substitute Spanish teacher and substitute Educational Technician at Bangor High School and William Cohen Middle School. I received the highest ratings from the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, and plan to pursue certification as a Spanish teacher this year.

In addition to the typical study of vocabulary and grammar, I like to keep my students interested and motivated through exposure to various elements of Hispanic culture including music, film, food, history, and geography.

Working with people, particularly children, has always been a passion of mine. Through the psychology program at Husson College I was able to gain a better understanding of human interaction, interpersonal relationships, as well as to obtain further insight on the foundation of the cognitive wiring in which we all possess.

I think the process starts with parents but branches out into the world of educators, and truly is a battle that can be won as long as there is always a core group of people committed to each child's success in the classroom. As a current graduate student I have had the opportunity to learn a great deal about the effective techniques and skills it takes for one to succeed within the classroom. I have so far earned my BS in Clinical Psychology

I feel very strongly about the importance of a good education. Having a degree in English, I have much experience in using proper grammar, technical writing skills and creative writing skills. I have tutored students in the area of English, biology, history and some spanish. I have always loved working with children. Through my experience as a special education instructor, I have learned children can learn in a variety of ways. My teaching philosophy is that each child has different strengths, and it is imperative to tailor an educational program to these strengths. By highlighting what a student is good at, their confidence is increased. This confidence will help them overcome academic obstacles. I believe that teachers play a huge role inthe success of their students, and that with the right support system, any child can acheive their academic goals.
