Ready to help increase skills in languages and music.

I prefer working one on one with students to help them learn quicker than in group settings.
I have taught as a substitute teacher for five years. I have played violin and trombone professionally in performing groups. I spent five years as a violinist with the Folsom Symphony and ten years with the Camellia Symphony Orchestra. I have also studied voice (singing) and have sung solos in numerous venues. I have lived in Germany and Mexico and learned both languages fluently. I have a degree in German and studied Spanish as well on the college level.

Academic Learning to Standards and Beyond!

University of California-Berkeley graduate in individual major titled "Diplomacies to End the Division of Europe-1949-1990." Tutored English to German students in Germany, and returned to America to "give back". Specializing in one-on-one tutoring with resources and interactive activities found on the internet as well as worksheets on paper. I am very patient and have a record of success with my past students. They have averaged a 25% increase in test scores after a minimum of 4 lessons to a maximum of 10 lessons. Looking forward to gaining my teaching credentials this Fall.
In an effort to conjure mutual respect, I approach each student more like a peer rather than a teacher, although they know who is an charge. With my elementary students, I have been known to kick a soccer ball around with them or read them a book... schedule permitting. "Play time" is my pro bono co ... read more

I am committed to building on what my students bring with them, using this as a fulcrum on which to hinge their learning. This approach succeeds in helping students understand that they are capable of and even responsible for teaching themselves?–?a skill I see as a necessity in life, especially once a student can no longer expect formal instruction. In addition to my own experiences with learning several languages, I have benefited from coursework in Behavioral Psychology, which has taught me to create positive classroom atmosphere. My students note my enthusiasm for language and express appreciation for my linguistic explanations.
I have spent 6 years teaching university-level German language courses and reading comprehension & writing courses. Before this, I spent 2 years as a vol ... read more
