Portuguese & Englsih tutor with over 10 years of experience

Over 10 years of experience in working with English and Continental Portuguese (tutoring, interpreting and translating). I lived and worked in Portugal for over 1 year, and I have been living in the USA for 5 years. The combination of living in a native environment and having Master's Degrees in Portuguese and English gives me a very good comprehension of grammar, literature, culture and history, among other areas.

Brain Builder-Building the Brain without the Pain

I have learned through my experiences of teaching individuals with disabilities that a great teacher needs to be flexible in their teaching styles. I am very self-reflective and am constantly looking for ways to help students overcome difficulties with learning. I have a very energetic teaching style and am enthusiastic about learning different subjects as well.
I have been in the teaching field for close to 10 years. My experience has consisted of teaching Special Education and Adults with Disabilities. I also have had experience teaching Elementary and Middle School students in Reading and Math. I have a Masters degree in English Education from the University of South Florida. I am also a Florida Certified teacher in English 6-12 with Reading and ESOL Endorsements and ESE K-12.

My comments on tutoring Literature : Graduate degree in English and American Literature. Taught English at secondary and college levels.

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals. As a classroom teacher and as a personal tutor, I have seen almost miraculous results in a relatively short period of time, both in terms of academic achievement and student confidence. Passion and enthusiasm for learning is contagious, and I am a carrier. For a dedicated instructor, nothing is more satisfying than watching a student "catch" the learning bug.
After attending (and teaching in) a graduate program in American/British Literature and Language at L.S.U., I realized that my true calling was teaching. I began teaching English, Journalism, S.A.T. Prep., Latin, and other subjects in Springfield, MA in 2003 in an alternative, urban high school. I t ... read more

Everyone deserves to love learning!

I am a recent graduate, having majored in biology and environmental studies. During my time in college I also had the opportunity to be a teaching assistant for a genetics lab and took part in an environmental education program in New Hampshire. My science and liberal arts background makes the the ideal candidate to teach a variety of subjects in ways that are interesting and informative to students.
Relaxed, informal- students each learn in their own way, my objective is to learn from about an individual and cater to their own educational needs.

Literature is one of my top subjects! I have a Master's Degree in American Literature and have completed all of my coursework on my Ph.d. I have taught American, British, World and Caribbean Literature courses for decades. I am especially adept at showing students that the study of literature is exciting and fun. I am patient with those who really don't like literature very much but only study it because it's required. I can "open it up" and make it easily understandable.

I have been a college and university professor of English for over three decades. I have also taught many history and humanities courses. I have taught all ages, from junior high students through traditional college-ages students to adults and seniors. I make learning fun and easy. I enjoy working with students of many nationalities, interests and cultures.
I am a serious, dedicated professional educator who is also hip, easygoing and fun. I enjoy teaching and I will make sure you enjoy learning from me.

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring is not my part-time job, it is a full time endeavor. I tutor in many subjects including Elementary, Middle and High School curriculums. I tutor all ages. By working with my students, their parents and teachers, we formulate a plan and goals for our sessions. Sometimes I am a tutor for a test, or a coach for a project or a study skills adviser. I have experience working with students with ADHD and those with specific learning issues and IEP's.

My first task is to ascertain the student’s level of comprehension and capacity to learn the particular subject and then to proceed to the next levels. Variety of methods and approaches are used to maintain interest and enhance learning. Recognition and praise for accomplishments and progress is used to motivate a student to always do their best work.
I have over twenty years of teaching experience in traditional private schools. I have also homeschooled students for several years. Levels tutored include grades three through senior high. Subjects I have specialized in include math (basic elementary math through Algebra 1), science, history, economics and language arts.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student at New College of Florida I studied Literature and Sociology before writing an undergraduate thesis on Outdoor Education. During research for my thesis I studied many educational theories and used them for a camping-education program proposal based on Florida educational standards. After graduating, I spent a year in South Carolina teaching outdoor education to elementary school students.
Although there are many ways to teach, I strongly believe in Experiential Education. Experiential Education tries to find ways to help the student discover an answer instead of being given an answer and makes learning hands on and relevant to the student's own life. This takes more time and patience,but at the end the student has a real understanding of what they are learning. As long as a student wants to learn, I will do all I can to make learning interesting.
