As regards language teaching and learning, my ultimate goal is to help my students build in their brains an “implicit linguistic system” consisting of an unconscious system that lies outside of awareness: learners will be unaware of its properties even though they will use it every single second. Such a set of unconscious knowledge will allow students to interact in the target language in real time. Also, during the processes of building of the linguistic system, I attempt to stimulate the curiosity of my students for the most fascinating features of the Italian culture, like figurative arts and opera. Also, I am an experienced instructor of lyric diction for opera singers. Some of my former students are now professional opera singers working at national and international level; others are full professors of music at university level. If you are an opera singer (professional or student)

I am a former Social Worker from the Foster Care system. I realized thern I wanted to work with children, but more as an educator. I have been tutoring in World History since I was 18 years old through a group known as The Society For Creative Anachronism. I tutor mostly in Human Service type classes on a college level, english and history on a high school level. I also work with special needs children from K-12. I try to make each lesson unique for my various learners. I have been known to teach in historical clothing, using props from the time period and a smattering of words in other languages. I also incorporate hands on learning such as crafts and some food making. I believe if a method is not working for my students, I change my approach. I also teach in language they are able to understand since their vocabulary is much different than what we spoke in 1970 as well as referneces cu

I am patient, flexible, enthusiastic and friendly. I put the student first; the syllabus second. I do not want to lose the student and will backtrack to consolidate the fundamentals. I strive to avoid talking down to the student but rather encourage him/her with what they have to offer. I emphasize positives. My approach is explanatory rather than judgmental. As a Ph.D. level student in Sociology (ABD) with all exams passed, I have 2 years of successful formal teaching experience at the college level. In research papers I have demonstrated excellent grammar and writing skills. My linguistic training includes 5 years of Latin all of which makes me a very language conscious person. I have tutored students in German, English, French, Sociology/Anthropology. Furthermore I have extensive exposure to Korean, Thai, and Japanese. My multilingual training has sensitized me to inference-related

My philosophy is that all children have the potential to succeed when given a fair chance so it is my joy to provide this chance. I examine the intellectual ways of relating to the world and how to convey and teach these different lessons. I change my technique to fit the child and I put a premium on interactive lessons, because I believe experience is extremely important in learning. It is my responsibility to present an engaging lesson in an understandable way. I graduated a year early from a private high school to go to Vassar College. During my sophmore year in highschool, I also took college courses at a local school and got all A's. I have been tutoring on my own since I was sixteen in many subjects. I worked professionally as a tutor for 1 1/2 years at Score Educational Centers. I also worked for half a year as an environmental teacher at a nature center. I have extensive experie

As a graduate of The University of Florida it was important to me not only to achieve a high grade point average but to participate in organizations which would promote self-growth, a broader cultural experience and challenging situations which would help to develop problem solving skills. While attending The University of Florida I was able to participate in many extra-curricular activities including Director of Parking and Transportation for student government and House Manager for Phi Kappa Tau, a social fraternity. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration majoring in General Business with a concentration in Mass Communications. What makes my teaching style unique is also what I feel makes it so effective. I will normally spend 10 to 15 minutes talking with a student about their interests and hobbies. Whether it is sports, art, music, money, boyfriends & girlfriends

Everyone knows how daunting it can be to face a seemingly insurmountable challenge. I even look back at assignments I faced, and can remember a certain amount of trepidation with which words like ‘term paper’ were sometimes charged, despite the fact that I always knew academic success. However, I also always relished learning, and can’t remember a time when the world wasn’t exciting, and when learning something new didn’t make me smile. All these experiences have fed my perspective as an educator, and I believe that I not only put students at ease and build confidence, but also help to inspire them and share an avid curiosity about the world. The interdisciplinary nature of my education helps me creatively find a means to explain things when students can’t get a handle on a particular concept or idea. I’m professional, but thoroughly easygoing, friendly, and even fun. Most of my studen
