English is one of my top subjects! Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching is tailored to each student's needs because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching in a classroom, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.

Students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL, have benefited from my services.

My comments on tutoring English : I have been trained and I am experienced with teaching ESL to both children and adults. I am very secure in my English skills. I have also completed training with the Minnesota Literacy Counsel.

I have been teaching and tutoring students for more than 20 years. I currently provide online as well as in person tutoring to students in the areas of phonics and reading. I am an ESL teacher for a couple of online companies in China. I work as a substitute teacher for the public school system where I live and I am also pursuing a degree in Spanish at Arizona State University. I previously taught in a small private school that I founded. The school served students in grades kindergarten through second grade and it was founded with the idea of promoting literacy through the encouragement of world language learning. I teach beginning and emergent literacy skills in English, Spanish, Arabic, and Mandarin Chinese. I have also taught in two charter schools over a period of 15 years. During that time I served as a teacher in various areas, such as Kindergarten, First Grade, PreK, and Arabic. ... read more

English is one of my top subjects! I currently work as an English tutor for the students enrolled at the Art Institute of Atlanta. I assist students improve test scores who are trying to gain admission into the college yet score poorly on the entrance exam. I also work in the writing center where I meet with enrolled students to assist in each step of the writing porcess. The ultimate goal for the students and I is that we end with a polished final draft that contains good grammar, punctuation, sentence structure and flow.

I truly believe the strength of my teaching/ tutoring style is my devout compassion. I am able to exemplify extreme focus, patience, motivation and due diligence because I ultimately care about the success of the students I tutor. My initial step in the tutoring process is to perform a thorough analysis of the students comprehension of the subject. Once I'm aware what the student understands and don't understand a unique and proper game plan is developed to reach a confident grasp of course material.
I grasped the importance of education at a very young age and excelled throughout school. Early in my youth I also developed a sincere passion for helping fellow classmates who I saw were having difficulties comprehending course material. I had a knack for connecting with students, identifying the point of confusion, and creating different avenues to reach full comprehension of a su ... read more

English is one of my top subjects! I learned English as a second language (my first language is Russian) and I know how to help and teach students learning ESL because I went through this process myself. It involves much more than learning just grammar and

I am a native speaker of Russian. I was born and grew up in the former Soviet Union and I moved to the US in 2008. I have a bachelors degree in German and a masters degree in English with concentration in TESOL (Teaching English To Speakers of Other Langauages) from IUPUI (Indianapolis, Indiana). I have multiple years of tutoring experience of ESL (English as a second language), as well as tutoring Russian (one-on-one in person and online through Skype or Zoom).
I tailor my teaching style to the student's goals and needs. Every individual is different in learning style/strategies preferences, so I work together with the student to put together a customized syllabus with realistic and manageable goals for a set timeframe.

A Little Bit About Me...

I boast more than 14 years of experience in English education. I induce independent learning by stimulating curiosity about class topics through student-centered education methods, and I guide each student to engage in class with confidence to achieve their goals. I have mastered more than four languages besides English, and by doing so I've got a better understanding of the difficulties students face when learning a foreign language other than their own. I have thought languages in different parts of the world, France, Japan, UAE and South Korea, I've also trained executives and employees of several companies, such as Sinopec, McKesson, Exor, and Webhelp. Currently, I co-founded and operate Collabo, a startup specializing in one-on-one classes based in South Korea, and have prepared a program to help students speak English fluently in only few months.

Ready to love learning

Adaptive. I have a background in experiential education and believe that the method is not as important as the end result of having assimilated, understood, and taught back the information. I believe in creative learning techniques and hope to inspire a love of learning alongside the discipline of learning itself.
I currently work as a substitute teacher at Riverside Military Academy. I've worked with elementary children and teenagers extensively. My most recent position serves twenty and thirty somethings in their personal and spiritual formation. I have published my writing, acted on stage, spoken before thousands and mentored dozens. My personal intent is to explore life, discover new things, tackle hard challenges and inspire others to do the same. I believe in the value of the individual and don't believe one-size-fits-all.

Learn from a Doctor: Writing, Test Prep, Classical Languages

Each student has different needs and different learning styles. When I meet a student, I try to adapt to the each student's distinctive learning style. More generally, I engage students with the material by asking lots of questions designed to open up new ways of perceiving the material. Where possible, I try to make learning a multisensory experience, incorporating visualization of data, reading written work aloud, and listening for clues to the solution of a problem.

My comments on tutoring English : After earning an ESOL endorsement from Berry College, I taught English to ESOL students in the Fayette County School System to 9-12 grade students.

I opt for making the material relatable to my students, which causes it to be more interesting and meaningful. When something is relevant, it is a lot more fun and kids are much more willing to want to learn, which is, of course, ideal.
I graduated from McIntosh High School in Fayette County and studied English and Secondary Education at Berry College. I student taught for a year at Rome High School before graduating and becoming a substitute teacher in Fayette County. I have completed three long-term substitute positions, two of which put me in charge of an entire classroom with all the responsibilities of a full-time teacher. Additionally, I worked at Aloha-USA Mind Math with Elementary Students as an English Teacher and occasionally a Math teacher.

English is one of my top subjects! The only subject I've ever taught, both in private and public schools, is English.

I have extensive experience both locally and abroad teaching ESL. I taught in Korea for two years before working at a local ESL school. Within these two positions, I taught ages 5 through adult. Seven years ago, I became a certified teacher in Georgia and have been teaching ESOL in public schools since then. I have published about a dozen poems and one short story. Currently, I am working on my third novel and am looking for an agent. My forte as a teacher is discovering what a student is trying to convey in his/her writing. Para los que no hablan ingles, soy bilingue. Aunque puedo decir esto, me espanol no es perfecto.
I enjoy humor where appropriate and am very patient with students who need time to understand concepts that are new to them.
