I prefer a style that empowers the students to take ownership of their work so they will become better thinkers and writers. I prefer discussion-based learning opposed to "lecture-style" teaching where I can interact freely with the student as a peer-tutor. More specifically, I like to use white boards and visual aids in sessions. I have worked in Cedarville University's Writing Center as a tutor for two years. As a tutor, I conducted one-on-one sessions with college-age students to help them improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I also led several workshops on various skills required for college-level writing, such as "How to write a historical/biographical analysis" and "How to write a Marxist analysis." In addition, in training for my tutorship, I wrote a research paper on how to tutor various types of LD students, focusing on students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, and variou

Since achieving a Bachelors in Spanish at Grand Valley State University, I have worked in a human services environment. As a bilingual professional, I have the opportunity to offer services to Spanish and English speakers, aiding them in furthering their education and job search skills. In a fast-paced field, a high level of accuracy in spoken and written communication is imperative, in both English and Spanish. In obtaining a degree in Spanish, I also honed my English and literature skills. Earning my degree required a high level of literary analysis and composition. Indeed, my final coursework consisted mainly of analyzing Spanish literature and composing several lengthy papers on themes within the material.

I teach ESL to speakers whose primary language is not English, by emphasizing practical speaking exercises and encouraging the timid with humor!

As an extensive traveler in Europe and Latin America, I have developed effective techniques to lead students to correct pronunciation. My basic belief is that as human beings, we all share the goal of being understood. This may sound rather simple, but it is basic to my philosophy. I work to ensure that each of m
