Composition Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Midvale, UT

I am a culinary school graduate and a full-time chef. As part of my chef-ly duties, I regularly find myself teaching cooking techniques and helping people become more comfortable in the kitchen. When it comes to writing, that I do more for my own amusement, but I have always considered myself more of a writer than anything else. I have experience and enjoy training youth in resume writing and goal setting. I am an extremely patient person. My teaching style stems from that. 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.

more than 35 years of teaching experience in schools,language centers and academies throughout the Middle East. 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. Active learning is the most effective way to learn.This entails an ongoing dialogue between teacher and learner.For example,grammar rules are ABSORBED and not taught in an abstract way.At the end of each topic,a role play is implemented where the learner becomes the teacher,and vice versa as this is the best way for both the teacher and students to assess the level of the student's understanding.

Experience throughout school, work and personal experience dealing with the mentally challenged and dyslexia. my best friend had a son who was dyslexic and also he had ADD and I got him to trust me in babysitting and I taught him various things. I taught him how to read and write he could not accomplish that on his own. He was 11 at the time and I think with kids you have to be creative to teach them and I am very creative. I also have an aunt who is mentally handicapped, and I love spending time with her she is a very giving person. They teach me and it is always a joy to work with them and give something back. Hands on approaches mixed with worldly knowledge, and a very patient style.

I prefer face-to-face interaction, as language learning is a social experience. With that in mind, I am happy with one-on-one tutoring as well as small groups, even with different levels of experience. Also, language learning should be fun! While the basics such as vocabulary, rules of grammar, etc. are necessary, that does not mean instruction needs to be boring. I recently completed my Master's degree in Portuguese at Brigham Young University. As part of my Master's program, I taught beginning and intermediate Portuguese for five semesters to classes both small and large. My studies included not only language and linguistics but also culture and history of both Portugal and Brazil. I have experience in teaching reading comprehension and writing as well as speaking, and am familiar with ACTFL guidelines for oral proficiency.

My personal journey with education and teaching has been quite fulfilling as I have had many opportunities to enhance my skills in a variety of situations. Throughout my life, I have had gained valuable teaching experience while serving as a teacher and educational trainer in France, New Zealand, the United States, and China. During such international and culturally diverse teaching opportunities, I carefully observed the educational systems of each country and learned many effective teaching methods that will increase my effectiveness as a private tutor. Over the past year, I have had the opportunity of teaching at the university level as a French adjunct professor. This unique experience has allowed me to experiment with many different teaching methods that promote both a strong work ethic and an enjoyable way of learning.

I'm a very compassionate person and believe all students have great potential and it shows with how I converse with all students. Personally, I find helping others help themselves is very rewarding and uplifting. I love to see student's eyes light up when they solve a problem or understand a concept...

I am a results driven teacher. I will try different approaches to get my student to understand the consept at hand. I feel that I am very patient and understanding, and that I can explain concepts in multiple ways to help my students understand what I am teaching them.

I was lucky enough to spend four years doing what I love: reading and writing. I graduated from BYU-Idaho with a BA in English, with an emphasis in literary studies, and a minor in Humanities. I spent 2 years tutoring students in the BYU-Idaho reading center. My experience ranged from beginning readers to college level speed reading techniques. I spent a large amount of time working with ESL students. These experiences not only gave me a better understanding of the concepts of grammar and comprehension, but a greater appreciation of the English language itself. I discovered my teaching techniques while working as a tutor and have perfected them for the past seven years as a mother of four young children. My main goal when tutoring or teaching is to guide the student to the answer through their own knowledge. I have found that by sharing the necessary tools for learning has been so much
