I encourage those I tutor to set goals for what they want to learn or accomplish and then assist them in working towards those goals.

I am a language consultant in English and french where I designed curricula for various levels and trained teachers in linguistic methodology.Teaching is my lifetime passion.The teaching method should be tailored to the student's character,ability and the degree of assimilation.There is no standard method of teaching.

I would prefer the library, just because it is big and open. The library in Tooele is a great example. It has rooms that can be used. I would prefer tutoring no more than 10 students at a time. If I can get a copy of the lesson before hand, I can be prepared. Most of the subjects I have selected I passed with an 85% or better. I also did some tutoring in high school for other students. If I didn't learn it, I am most likely to figure out what is going on. It helps to know before hand what the lesson and subject is, just so I can remember what it is and to be more prepared.

I am a firm believer that the role of an educator is to help a child develop a passion for learning. For me, it is essential that learning is fun. With positive encouragement and belief in a child, I believe he or she can reach his or her potential. My education is in business related fields. As a result, I have a good understanding of analytical subjects like math and statistics. I also am fluent in Spanish and have taken multiple hours of course work in grammar and Spanish literature. However, my experience as an educator spans over four years when I was a debate coach for a local high school. I am experienced at research and formulating essay style papers/positions and communicating effectively over a broad range of topics.
