Spanish and ESL Enthusiast At Your Service!

I think it is important to help learners make early connections to what is being studied through discussion of prior experiences and related meaningful discoveries. I like to teach using acronyms, graphic organizers, and other categorization strategies so that connections are made between nouns and verb structures. For the younger learner I have also used songs, games, crafts, and movement to augment the language learning journey.
I became a certified Spanish teacher back in 1994, and I have been teaching for several years since mostly in the middle and high school settings. I also have experience teaching college age students. I have found that I enjoy teaching students of all ages and ability levels. I have also traveled abroad having utilized my target language skills. Teaching language and culture via the 5 C's of Cultures, Communities, Communication, Connections, and Compariso ... read more

The best teachers teach first from the heart and from books.

I am a French/ESL teacher with European education and I have been teaching these subjects for 30 years both in Europe and USA.I love teaching and helping students succeed and make the most progress as quickly as possible.I always achieved the best results for younger and older students I tutored. My goal is oral proficiency in the language.Reading, speaking and grammar are also very important in the study of languages. I encourage my students to practice the new language and not to be afraid to speak even if they make mistakes. Practice makes perfect!

Native English/Japanese Speaker looking for learners!

I have had a period of 7+ years studying and living in a native Japanese-speaking environment. I have learned a variety of dialects and have also worked as an interpreter in a Japanese town hall office. I also have ESL (English as a second language) teaching experience working with everyone ranging from youth to adults teaching them English in both a casual and classroom style throughout my time in Japan.
I like to keep things informal, people want to learn a language in order to speak and communicate rather than learn cold informal grammatical points. I know learning grammar is an essential building block to the language learning process, but know that verbal communication along with open discussion is a must in any learning environment.

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. As an undergraduate, I participated in a Writing Fellowship, which allowed me to meet with students to work on their writing. Through this individualized tutoring style, I developed an appreciation for working one-on-one with students and peers, and began to develop a highly personal, creative style of tutoring. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have found that students learn best when they are comfortable yet appropriately challenged. It is my goal to distinguish the learning style of each individual student that I work with and from there, develop a plan to meet their goals.

As a Lehigh University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I earned a BS degree in Computer Science and have worked as a software engineer and tutor. Some of my mathematical skills include algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability & statics, discreet math, and differential equations.

More About This Tutor...

I received a B.S. Degree in Education with a teaching certificate in English-Communication, at the secondary level. I am also qualified to instruct younger children. My graduate work focused on elementary students.My experience with young children, was learning to identify reading disabilities, administering standardized reading tests, to assess the instructional and readiness levels of individual students. I have taught in a wide array of classroom settings and as a private tutor.
I strive to encourage open discussions, and small group activities so students can move around the room, but only as it relates to the task at hand. I enjoy watching their enthusiasm when I give a "fun" learning activity. I am pleasant, very patient and lively!
